BiggTim Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 .... Our late, lamented vac monster Larry Hawkins (Maverick72848) built them by the dozens. Late? I didn't know Larry had passed. Bummer....I used to communicate with him a lot back in my 32SIG days. Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jessie_C Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 So has anybody built a CM vac form and can vouch for their quality etc? I'm very interested to see that both a Cornell and an Anson are available in 1/32nd. Should be fun! Max Combat moddels is not only a brand name, it's a description. And a warning. Here's their 1/72 C-17 being given the treatment by a master. Alburymodeler, Harold and Rick Griewski 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee White Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Hi Max, Glad to hear that you are ready to tackle the Cornell!! As an appetizer, here is Jerry Rutman's build of this exact kit... Perhaps you can ping him for more info? http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=52576 mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Thanks again Lee....that's decided it, the Cornell it is! As a long time admirer of Tom Probert and his inspirational builds, I shall take on the CM build with vigour!!

Lee White Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Would love to see pics of the B-57 This is the ID kit, but it probably is similar to the Combat kit. http://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=1525 One more- http://www.largescaleplanes.com/articles/article.php?aid=233 Edited January 22, 2015 by Lee White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee White Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Got a reply from Combat- SR-71 $89, +$20 shipping. $109 out the door for a 1/32 SR-71......... Jack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Hope to see pictures of the SR-71, as that would give us a good idea about their latest releases. The older ones are literally that. Some are many decades old. We don't know the quality of the new ones until we see them. Hopefully, they are better than the earliest. Edit: I could like a DC-3 in 1/32, and we could probably find some resin/plastic engines and props that might work (Wright R-1820 or Pratt and Whitney R-1830). Probably need to cast a "planeload" of seats though. Tnarg Edited January 23, 2015 by Tnarg Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Would love to see pics of the B-57 Rob, not a completed project (yet) but take a look at my "stalled effort" to do a WB57F: http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=38280&hl=wb57f I'm still very fond of this weird looking aircraft.....

Lee White Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Really glad there is a kit out of the Firebrand. Might have to look into that one. Matt http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/19330-firebrand/ Radders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 It's a shame there a re no photos of the kits on their website. Although I have to admit that there are only very few subjects which I'd be tempted with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famvburg Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 IIRC, Jeff includes injected plastic or resin parts for landing gear, props, engines, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
