It seems to be. I've had it a few years and paid too much for it then. Let me know if you want me to look something up and I'll send it to you.

going with the 74/75/76 since that is what I have...funny how that works out.

got some of the RLM 76 and RLM 74 applied. Mixed it about 60-40 with MLT. Looks better than I've ever achieved before....It will get another application to cover the places that you see. . . plus those you don't!

Going to go play with my mental blocks for a while to let this dry. Pretty humid today, and like the last number of days, it is rainy and will be storms later....sheesh.

Well, some progress...no pics yet. Just haven't been in the mood on this one. I've managed to paint it 2 or three times, though. Still looks pretty amateurish to me, but I am an amateur! Anyway, a bit later today, I'll try to get started on the decals. have to cut some of the white crosses. Applied some Microscale Liquid Decal Film on the sheet after the spiral decal for the spinner came apart. Could not find my Testor's spray can of decal fixer anywhere. Must have tossed it. Oh well.

:hmm:

Come to think of it, most of us here qualify as “amateur” model makers/builders. Unless one is getting paid to build models as their day job, and that is their primary source of income, you’re not a professional. :hmm:

Progress pics!!!!
