Sorry for your troubles and hope things get better soon for your wife, Stuart. I recommend finding yourself a nice Tamiya 1/72 fighter. I fear you are going to find a lot of not simple between the start and finish of a PM kit. The belly is deeper on the F-5 than on the T-38 as well, to accommodate a...

Looks like a pretty early Hasegawa kit.

Well done, Lyle, that really looks good!

I have the A&A King Air 200 in 1/72 and the Yak-23UTI in 1/48. In the box I would say they are high end limited run. The 200 looks great for accuracy and that's an airplane I know pretty well. I understand they are related to Modelsvit. I hope they fit better that what I have heard about Modelsv...

Is the stand going to involve 3d printing clear?

I think at one time they were as cheap as the first ICM Spitfires. I haven't built any of them yet so I don...

Thanks, everyone for all the nice comments. Still have the A6M3 type 22, A6M5, A6M7, and A6M8 to go in 1/48.

Chris, I don't think there is any right way to do it but it wasn't too bad with the floats on, other than being careful to not knock off the tip floats. Here are a couple of near finished pictures. I want to finish up the Kubota tractor so it can be in the final photos with the Rufe, and I want to w...

All those guys look like targets, hope they are careful!
