  1. Interesting aircraft, to be sure, but I suspect one that I will not be buying.
  2. Yep, I need it done by June, so I intend to keep cranking on it.
  3. Getting closer. The bottom seams, which I had thought to be near flawless, are really not, as the primer reveals. I'm guessing that one or possibly two more treatments will get me where I need to be though.
  4. Adding the kit IP decals to the unmodified IP was probably unwise, but after numerous coats of Solvaset, it actually looks OK. IP on the real deal is rather bland and colorless anyway, so I think I can live with this.
  5. The Outlaw was a real beauty for its day, and I like the color interpretation that guy chose for it.
  6. Wow, just gobs of cool stuff. Thanks, Kev.
  7. I just noticed a different cover for the Mistel book. I have no idea why.
  8. Starboard panel now finished. Not great, but acceptable. Next up, I try to wrestle the silly P.E. seat belts into position.
  9. I suppose another aspect to address to all, regarding why we generally like to keep a thread on topic. If not kept on point, what's the real purpose of having a topic at all? Unlike some sites, LSP currently has no "free for all" areas, and hopefully never will. As to thread creep, this is as common as dirt on LSP, and is not generally frowned upon by staff, especially if it can be steered back on track, and therefore generally not the specific reason for a lock down.
  10. The Me 410 (injection molded) would certainly be something I'd have to consider, if pricing was reasonable.
  11. I agree (on all three identical topics), it's a truly great price. I just wish I had the cash right now, as I'm in the market for another.
  12. 'Pit port side has now received all of the Eduard stuff that the RF set didn't provide. Now it's on to the starboard side details.
  13. Ooh, Grey paint (via a deal with our own cxk5075). Thanks so much for the help, Dino. I couldn't resist spritzing some on the fuselage and wing, and absolutely love the color. Fuselage seam obviously still needs more work.
  14. I've never been a real fan of American armor, so it looks like Das Werk for me.
  15. To address the OP here, there can be numerous reasons for a thread lock-down. That thread was doomed from day one to go nowhere, as there was really nowhere for it to go. While it never really got too snotty, it was also quickly devolving from the original intent, into a meandering discussion of what other companies may do, so not on point at all. Keeping a post "on topic", within reason, helps those that are interested, remain interested, and is why we prefer for it to stay that way whenever possible. Locking threads is not a decision that any staffer takes lightly.
  16. I'm quite sure he's aware of the difference, D. As to the book in question (Schlachtflieger), my copy, written by six different folks, does not have the Hs 129 on the cover.
  17. Oh boy, P-40 stuff! In addition to the MRP neutral grey that's on the way, I may now be able to get the fuselage zipped up soon. There's also some Tamiya neutral grey here now, just to add some accents to the MRP grey.
  18. My 1:200 I Love Kit USS Hornet (CV-8), is in fact the Trumpeter kit, just considerably cheaper.
  19. More baby steps. ‘Pit now has some detail colors, Red Fox stuff and some random washes to unify and dirty it all up. Still more to do though, as I’m awaiting an Eduard set for additional interior stuff.
  20. Nice! If it's affordable, I'll have to grab one. The MOANG flew them way back when, so I may do a tribute aircraft.
