Re: Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build
I totally reworked the spinner. Separated the blades. Glued the spinner together, filled, sanded, scribed, drilled mounting holes for the blades, primed, painted. Created connectors for each blade. https://i.postimg.cc/jS1Nhn4X/2024-GB-1-48-TAM-A6-M2-N-RUFE-IW-1024-6984.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/4xy...

Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
The Airfix A-7 isn't a bad kit, although lacking in modern detail (the weapons suck) it does have a full intake trunking and the shape looks good. I built one as part of Manny's Airfix Groupie GB back in 2015 - not my best work... And it's one of the few Airfix kits with.... wait for it.... WHEEL W...

Re: Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build
I set the Kenworth aside for a bit. Needed a break from it. This little feller is on the bench of chaos. https://i.postimg.cc/PqNR6Hr8/IMG-0790.jpg I needed something with easier to follow instructions. https://i.postimg.cc/8zp36W24/IMG-0792.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Hs4Rn3hj/IMG-0791.jpg And, I've ...

Re: Empire of the Rising Sun Group Build
The Antenna mast in the legacy Tamiya A6M2 kit is possibly the worst molded part in the kit. Trying to clean it up with hobby knife and sandpaper it snapped in two with one half flying off into oblivion. The same thing happened again with one I had in the spares box. Luckily that part is easy enoug...

Re: Latest Acquesitions - pt.3
The Airfix A-7 is not horrible shapewise IMO and is a decent kit, aside from the ordnance which is typical for an early 70's mold. I mainly acquired this becuase I like the MPC Profile series boxings. I also have an airfix boxing which I may build one day and leave this one as a collectable. Picked...
