**** me after I just finished mine! The Eduard masks are OK, so I'd love to try these.

Thanks, Alan. Sometimes we eat the bear and sometimes he eats us. This time the Italian bear (Italeri) bit me but didn't take off any limbs.

Nice work, and I like that it's a specific aviator's plane.

Ditto, a unique subject I don't recall seeing here before.

Nice pair of cats.

Here are the updated images with the ****ing canopy mask removed.

Wow, a condensed build thread and RFI all in one! Impressive. So good I want to toss the one I have in the stash out the door as it's never going to measure up to this one. Amazing wiring detail especially.

Very slick, thanks for sharing.

I only wish the photos were larger. Can't have too many helos here.

Ah, thanks, I didn't think I was losing my mind, though every day is a challenge in that regard.

Thanks, Ron, it was a wrestling match with the kit, but it was a series of photos of F-104Gs in Luftwaffe service I saw here on LSP that captured my imagination. Good kits in the stash went un-built so I could turn my attention to this one. I was lucky, also, that Aeroscale gave me the kit to review and build, otherwise I would still be wrestling the single-seat version I embarked on first. It was a pleasure to do this one more or less OOB.

How do I do that? Get AM metal gear?

Thanks, I think I will go for the Legacy Hornet and thought I might have a trade for one of the BATS kits here on the forum, but didn't have enough to temp the seller into a trade.

Is it the flu meds or did I not receive a resin canopy after ordering it separately?

Thanks, guys. I have the flu so haven't felt like setting up the lights and light box.
