    This is the masking for the gray walkway on top of the wing.

    1/350 US Coast Guard Reliance class Cutter TLAR Models #723

    I received an email from Ensign Thomas Gehman of CGC Active. They returned from patrol and found our return "Li'l Tough Guy" picture and a letter of appreciation I wrote, thanking our "US Coast Guard heroes" for their kindness and generosity. The framed picture was undamaged in shipment...

    1/350 US Coast Guard Reliance class Cutter TLAR Models #723

    Mask-clear-paint repeat. The 3D resin of this Hercules soaks up so much paint, I thought I heard it burp. L'Arsenal made a really nice 1/350 early C-130 resin/p/e kit, but they are long gone. No way would I encourage anyone else to buy this Shapeways sponge.

    1/350 US Coast Guard Reliance class Cutter TLAR Models #723

    The very last part to add to the Big Cutter will be the primed and painted flight deck safety nets. 19 p/e net sections are include in the kit. The side nets should be easy!

    MacRobertson Air Race Line up

    You have to fly the QED all the time! No relaxing and gawking about! When you land, bring her in on the main gear. It takes some practice to get acclimated to a landing speed near 120 mph. A lotta guys get nervous when the tail settles because they can't see the landing field over the...

    Latest Acquisitions Revisited!

    What stones you have! Even I will pass on the old-tool Glencoe Motor Life Boat kit. You plan piques my interest nonetheless. The old-tool-still cool 1/32 George is a treasure for certain!

    No! Not me. I'm a marketing genius, NOT a technical genius! Printing decals. Does that count?

    "Hootch Maid" Vietnam 1968

    First, I applaud the attention to detail and authenticity. Second, I imagine most of the subjects you make come from personal recollection. Third, you get a gold star for building in 1/35 instead of succumbing to the temptation of 1/16. I don't want to slobber all over your posts, but even...

    1/350 US Coast Guard Reliance class Cutter TLAR Models #723

    So, you have an Icebreaker or Cutter model, and you're thinkin' "How can I get a descent 1/350 HO4S-2 Helicopter model to adorn my 1950's subject. Shapeways has 'em, and the main rotors too, but I only want the one and I don't feel like waiting for an eternity to get it. What to do?" Maybe you...

    Of course you do. Pshwoo! That was close! :doh: Now where's that nice, cold cup of STFU that I drink so often from?

    RCAF 100th birthday colour bird Hornet

    Happy Birthday RCAF! I may overcome my disdain for the F/A-18 if the aftermarket makes a decal sheet for this in 1/72 scale. I don't know about that plaid flannel false canopy. Does that keep something essential warm in chilly Canadian temps? Asking for a friend. :lol:

    Mighty Mo, BB-63

    An external fuel tank can be carried on the port-side pylon. Every 1/350 Z-9C kit comes with torpedoes. I don't use them. You can have the torps, but you're not getting my external tanks!
