No, but often sneeze in bright sunlight, regardless of season.

Hi gang, Im thinking about trying my hand at 3d printing, nothing big, mostly cockpit bits that are mostly flat, and 2 dimensional except for buttons and bezels. I am pretty clueless when it comes to computers, can I solicit advice on small printers, materials, and software geared toward the novice? Thanks. Lee

Only half-qualifies……. But, I like your thinking here.

She has a great YouTube channel too, Jenisis model and design.

I think it’s a great idea, Erwin.

I can’t help but wonder if this is why the 1/48 Modelsvit DN Mirage IV came to nothing in 2022….

Has anyone thought to ask Timmy! about the T-38 canopy? He seems to have authoritative documentation on the size and shape of the canopies due to his 1/16 scratch build- maybe he can share some info.

I know he’s dabbling with a Yak-28, when I posted a pic of my home-brew Firebar, he posted some pics of the preliminary work he had done on his model, hinting at the possibility that he might produce one someday. Fingers crossed.

I may have already posted this, but the LEMkit Su-7 is out and available now in 1/32. No waiting.

Looks good, but there might be one area that you might want to address, if accuracy is paramount- the USAF on top of the starboard wing was unique on the Thunderceptor, it actually read “U.S.A.F.” Why the periods? Who knows.

Hi Greg, I don’t mean to hijack this thread, but it may be helpful for those with Tamiya Phantoms, and perhaps even the RP kit when it comes out- A now-departed LSP member named Ruzlkampf built a F-4S from the Tamiya kit, and devised an ingenious method for turning the kit parts into seamless intakes. I tried it, it works. Check out his build thread for more info. Edit: Found the build thread-

1/67 Farley Fruitbat

…and I’ll bet one of them was the gentleman who crafted an exquisite 1/32 Rafale using the plank-on-frame method. I tripped across the build while surfing one night, but wasn’t smart enough to save it, and haven’t been able to find it since. All I know is it was a French site with some amazing builds. You wouldn’t happen to know this fellow? Even just linking the build to LSP would expose his work to a large audience.

If you could actually see the seat he was climbing onto, and it wasn’t obscured by a capsule, it might have been a TB-58 trainer. Everybody still sat facing forward, but at least the was (maybe) enough room to turn to adjust some things.

Dang, I’ve got that one in the stash, I had no idea that’s what they are going for……Might have to let it go for that price!
