  1. Cockpit built so halves can go together. That allowed for today’s “ta da” moment. Filling and sanding ahead for sure, but I’m very happy
  2. Loving this so much! Thanks for showing how much fusion can do!
  3. Good luck! I thought I was on their mailing list about the release but maybe not!
  4. Fantastic! Can't wait to see more!
  5. Congrats on the publication guys. I won't scratchbuild another Fury, but if I did, this would be great. Joking aside, I bet it applies to the General challenges and I should get it it! (update. I got it!)
  6. Beautiful! Congratulations. The build log has some great tips. Thanks!
  7. Coming up on 6 years. It’s fairly blue and most big errors are corrected. Still lots of scribing to do. Ughhh. in other news I’ve been sailing this summer and last week I sailed with this guy (Mike Overton) I had never met (friend of friend). Apparently, His father was an ace with David McCampbell’s famous Hellcat Squadron VF-15. Lt. Overton is pictured among other pilots who combined to total 310 aerial kills in just 6 months. Overton is front row looking down. McCampbell’s Plane behind them (photo cropped). I’d love to find reference to his plane and do it in 1/24 with the Airfix kit I have. I’m really taken by how amazing the Hellcat was now that I can feel its history a little more intimately.
  8. Very Very nice, Gary. The pilot is so good he's almost distracting! Can't wait to see what's next!
  9. Ready for inspection? Ha. Ready for museum! Congratulations, Jay. Your patience, skill and determination has been inspiring! -- Jim PS. I smell ground-up scratchbuilding in the air......
  10. Outstanding! Can't wait to hit my kit of this!
  11. So great! Congratulations on the finish line! I didn’t know you were so close!
  12. Wow. That is perfect! Love the desert camo on the Luftwaffe planes.
  13. Well done! Mach 2 is a world I'm in. Doing most of the Dryden 50's era x-planes and Mach 2 really have it going on. No real complaints. Glad you enjoyed this.
  14. Very very cool. You can't keep a good plane down!
  15. Fantastic. This scale so rarely does the what if's, prototypes and x-planes. Great to see them come alive. I started down the track of the Skyrocket XF5 but turned around when I could sense I might lose interest in the long run (converted project to my S2 Tracker). Perhaps if I enter a 3D printer-at-home phase like you have, I'll give more attention there. Mmmm. X-3 Stiletto???
  16. Love it. Looking great! A friend of mine is building this in 1/72 and shares the joke that the only thing devastating about the devastator was what it did to the crew that flew it.
