Will buy another set for Zoukei-mura ´s Shinden whenever you might have one in stock. But first, get better hopefully soon! Prayers from Germany!

Yepp! Saw those on Nigel´s Modelling Bench and ordered 4 pieces at Rebell.com. No problems at all.

As it’s a build by John Kim, a true master in my eyes, I wasted no time to buy it. Now, a cup of coffee and some sweets, then the pleasure to see his work! Thanks for publishing this one, Kev!

Got my D400 sander from Troy, and was amazed to find that it’s to be powered by a cord. Don’t know where I got the bug it would be cordless… Made the first sanding sessions on ejector pins filled with black superglue. Results are very satisfying so far. I only wished for a very small sanding head. The order process and the communication with Troy went perfectly! Don’t hesitate to buy from this fine chap! I am a happy customer!

This is a message on Britmodeller dated December 30, 2022… But, hey, there still is hope!

Another work by John? Consider this one as bought!

Had the pleasure to meet Bekim today at the Leipheim / Germany model show. An extremely nice and talented chap! And his 3D model here is pure art! I got almost speechless seeing this amazing model!

Got those beautiful legs and seamless Vulcan intakes yesterday. Wonderful stuff, and VERY strong! Now I’m thinking about how to remove the casting stubs from the LG parts… I am a happy customer!

Some nice work here! Will check for sure when doing mine!

+1!

342 pages, and files to cut your own masks! This, again, is a winner for me! Thank you, Kevin, for publishing, and a deep bow to John out of respect for his masterpiece(s)!

Got mine last week, a hell lot of money for such a piece. But, who am I to complain when having a Border Lanc? Again, this set looks just great, as in the pictures. I just try not to think about what it did cost...

Thank you, Nils! At least MBK has stopped to order stuff from Russia due to the war. Late in the evening I got an email from Quinta, giving me a PayPal address in Kasachstan. I guess due to PayPal not doing business in Russia, too. Paid as „ordering goods“, so there is a refund possible just in case.

Any European distributor of this set? Tried to order directly, but using PayPal led to an error, and the other option (whatever this is) got me to a "Thank You!" site...

YES! I want! John ´s builds are

I wonder what kit this is?

262 pages of modelling porn! Wow! Immediately bought when noticed this morning!

Well, one needs solder to, errhh, solder. Flux fluid or paster helps the solder to flow easily and get a nice weld seam.

I use a heat sink on previously soldered areas. A wet piece of kitchen towel should work. Wrapp around the previously soldered area. I bought a Weller Soldering Station, setting the temperature at around 300 degrees Celsius, depending on the task to solder. I also use soldering flux and fine or medium size solder.

Good evening John! Wonderful to see you are doing new stuff despite this health issues! Hope you are doing better! I just added the corrections I found here: Best regards, Thomas

Paul, those are from Border, as far as I know. I told MBK about the discussion on scratched or broken clear parts here on LSP and elsewhere, so possibly they got some replacements from Border. But this is just me guessing. As far as I heard Border has, or will not do, better clear parts. So, I just had some luck and enjoyed great customer service getting much better parts from MBK, where I bought my kit from.

Just received my clear sprue replacements from Modellbau König (MBK)! On first glance my Lanc now has immaculate clear parts, so much better then the ones in the kit!

Like it a lot! Revell´s Ju 88 kits are well designed and look just correct when done. Yours is a good example of a cool build!

Nigel has just posted a video on hints and corrections he found when doing his build. Also, the assembly manual can be seen clearly:

Just as an explanation, me thinks there might be a restriction on file size to be uploaded to ScaleMates. Doesn’t make things better. Also, whenever I uploaded a PDF file, SM software seems to do something, making the file even worse. Also, the assembly manual is also rather on the lower end of what is possible. Far away from anything WNW did… I for myself hope to make it more clear watching the YouTube vids of Nigel’s Modelling Builds. Drop me a PM with your Email address, and I will do Scans of the manual. This takes some time, though.
