Today I received my first package.  Let the fun began. I'll try to keep up to date with the completions. I plan on trying add a lot of detail like the rest of you'all. So I hope no one will feel like I'm going to completely replicate someone else's ideas. That's not my intent. But I do like attention to detail myself.(slight OCD) I do like to try and fab parts even if they don't work out so much. Well ladies and gents the parts are calling. I like to ask questions. Tamiya 1/32 P-51D, Revell 1/32 Bf 109G-6 x2 1/32 P-51B, 1/32 Trumpeter Bf109K-4, 1/32 Hasegawa Bf 109E, Testors 1/32 F-117, RMF 1/35 Tiger 1

The Quad cannon is primed and I'm so special when it comes to operating a computer.   Question, Is anyone else going to use Loctite on the frame. The directions does not mention it at all.

Hi Dwayne, When you say using loctite on the frame are you referring to the screws? There is no mention of using it at all yet however I have been loctiting all of my screws. With your images if you resize to about 640 x 480 they will appear bigger when you attach them

I did add them to my photo bucket. I have been applying loctite to mine as I go so I dont have to keep tightening them up, I can see that we will need to dissample the frame after puttng it together. Are you re-sizing your pictures before you upload to photo bucket, I resize all mine on my android tablet then upload the resized pictures to my photobucket, I find this so much easier as I have an app that will resize a batch of photos in one shot

I had some time to paint and weather a little. Here are the front seats. I also made a rear door.  and the crew seats  The door is a work in progress  Here is the Turret top after some of battle damage filled and primed. And I also rotated the window frame.  That's my progress so far. Enjoy your builds Tamiya 1/32 P-51D, Revell 1/32 Bf 109G-6 x2 1/32 P-51B, 1/32 Trumpeter Bf109K-4, 1/32 Hasegawa Bf 109E, Testors 1/32 F-117, RMF 1/35 Tiger 1

5-8 Showed up today. For the guys that are running .25 fiber did any of you ever think to use one of the LED on the lighting panel supplied in the kit to illuminate them. Or ever using it as it alternate power source to piggyback off of. Just an idea. Not sure if I'll get to this batch because I get to do my annual training this Monday. But by the I come back I should have 9-12, motivation. Tamiya 1/32 P-51D, Revell 1/32 Bf 109G-6 x2 1/32 P-51B, 1/32 Trumpeter Bf109K-4, 1/32 Hasegawa Bf 109E, Testors 1/32 F-117, RMF 1/35 Tiger 1
