Doing a very nice job on this kit(s). I did one these conversions, and I used the Airscale rivets where needed. It worked out very well for me. Give it a whirl.

Any news about this kit issue date?

Thank you HPH. I built the La-7 and the Me-410 over the years and really appreciated your efforts.

Very nicely done

Wonderful work on that hot section

Beautiful rendition of a beautiful aircraft.

I saw a recent notification about new release of the Hasegawa Hellcat. Is this a new rework of the old kit or a totally new release? it would be nice to have a new updated kit.

With regards to the next kit to be issued, I think all your guesses are incorrect. It has to be a P-51B🥴😧🙄😬!!???

Very well done, sir. Your skills have highlighted a very well done design. This shows me where the hobby will go regarding those aircraft that were not more renowned.

Could use some aftermarket details - like underwing cannons to make a IId or a IV But, IIc land based variant would be an easy conversion.

😃 thumbs up!

Tim, did you by any chance get the Grey Matters Hurricane set that had the IId cannon set? Thanks, Steve Oakson

Thanks, Thierry. I knew that Grey Matters had done some. Just, didn’t know if anything else was out there

Just picked up the Revell IIb kit. I was wondering if there are any IId cannons/pods available? There is a scheme for the IId that kind of caught my attention. This looks like it would be a simple conversion.

Has a price been set? Duck has always been an interesting aircraft.

A question about the ventral tank. Is this being held in place by magnets? I didn’t notice any connectors in the pictures.

Impressive work.

I’m working on the Trumpeter -1B Bearcat. I would like to do No. 234 that is represented in the decals. However, the decals sheet shows the squadron design with a white beast head and white wings and a yellow star on the fin. Doing online search shows 234 with an orange “tiger” head and yellow wings. The star on the fin is shown in light blue. Does anyone out there have a definitive idea on which version is correct? They may both be correct depending on the year the plane was shown- I just don’t know.

Thanks for the replies folks. I just need to be more diligent in preliminary preparation.

I’m in the process of painting my Hobbyboss P-61 with gloss paint, but I am having trouble with dry winter air in basement leading to attraction of cat hair and dust. Any suggestions to help cut this down? I really have not had this much problem before, and I have been at this a good number of years Have already washed and allowed to dry. Wiped down with damp paper towel and a soft cloth. I’m little leery of using alcohol rag on my primer- Tamiya primer. I assume it’s just Mother Nature beating on me. It’s cold and with low humidity.

I hope if BiggTim isn’t able to go ahead with reworking the molds, that Kotare-with late series Corsairs, or one of the 3D print shops steps up to fill a void. Tim gets a vote of thanks to what he has been able to accomplish with other things he has taken on.

Looks like I need to get this kit. Excellent work on this.

Amen.

Woody, you have given us modelers a great service. Thank you. I will look forward to working with you Jen.

Nicely done. The Ki-43 is a nice kit. Could stand some updates for different marks, but simple and easy build. Like your story on getting kits.
