Hi guys, I got this one today for my 17th birthday

Happy Birthday Anze!!!

An F-16 for the 17th birthday is one too less, you should have bought an F-17 --- and I guess you are too young for Mid Life Upgrade

BTW is this the Kinetic kit or an ESCI (or other older) tool?

all the best

Steffen

Nice Anze that must be the 17 year old version usually shes un-clothed.Here's my haul for today.....

Hi Justin

got mine today ... 20 Euro at the Luckymodel sale was just too good and imagine the decals are NOT yellowed --> wahooo so I do not need replacements .. just a cockpit, nozzles, Wolfpack flaps set and maybe Brassin wheels ... and of course a job to finance that stuff

Despite the rapid fall of the euro this got past customs (I feared otherwise)

cheers

Steffen

Hi Anze
Happy birthday from all of us at Aeroscale as well and that is a very nice present. Enjoy the build.

Hi Justin
I must admit I am tempted to acquire 'show time' myself. Of all the F4 markings, I think that particular one is my favorite. I realy like the bird of prey on the tail and there is no bright colours.
tim

Speaking of markings I got Mal's Miracle Masks for my BOAC Sunderland. They look very neat, looking forward to using them. If only I could shift this head cold and the plumbing in the house would stop exploding. Major bummer working in a turkish bath!

Also arrived 10x0.3mm and 10x0.2mm drills.

Trying to complete my wings of the Jolly Rogers collection.I will save the decals for a future build.I'm hoping putting the other ones in the sun works.And yes Steffen buy the time im done buying upgrades it will be expensive

Well, I do not want to include that much after market stuff, but as the kit was "cheap" and the Flap Set was in stock I ordered it today from Lucky. Then I try to get the DMold intake set ... I just cannot cope with that multipart intakes .. it always looks crappy in my attempts. Plus the Aires cockpit and if there are Nozzles I will get them too ...so you are right it sums up pretty fast ... oh boy

anyway, you are right: Happy Modelling! to everyone

cheers

Steffen
P.S. The boxart of "Show Time 100" is pretty cool maybe I'll frame it

I agree sir I'm going to try to find the seamless suckers for mine.Aires cockpit,nozzles,flap-set...... I can hear money dying and presidents crying




Build on,
Justin

This came in the mail yesterday .......

Review sample of Osprey lastest in the modelling series . Already read the first chapter ......

I hear you there my wallet was crying after installing the Aires cockpit,nozzles and Dmolds intakes for my Phantom FGR1 build but it's well worth it though

Well, I just ordered the intakes ... 26 Euro!!!!!! plus p&p ... as i was at it I also ordered the F-105 nose correction and fin (another 26 Euro gone) and I know I do not have the money .. ohh well

all the best

Steffen

Got this kit today. Didn't come by mail but was still fun to get




Herky

Nice kit....



Build On,
Justin

Paid $19.99 USD for this, and it came today only 5 days after I ordered it online.



Bob

Nice tri-dekker - I found these at a local meeting - the basics looks ok, but the ribs on the wings and the interior needs a major overhaul - think I will have to sand the wings a lot to get a realistic look.



Cheers/Jan

Shipment from dragon today.My winnings for march MOM Thanks Dragon!

Congradulations Justin on the award.

Bob

Oh no Bob, not only are you going over to the dark side, you're doing it in triplicate!

Mark, it was just another pretty box that I could not pass up. I have this crazy idea to try rigging after viewing those beautifull WWI builds on Aeroscale here. There are so many to choose from.

Bob

Inspiring posts, aren't they.

I'm holding onto a Beech Staggerwing and a Grumman Duck in case I get really brave.

Hi. I've recieved these three shipments in separate packages over the past week.







Notice the crushed condition of the C-119. This gave me much concern when I extracted it from the double crushed cardboard shipping box. I knew if it was damaged, I would have to go back to the shipper as opposed to the carrier, because, if you have to deal with the carrier!!! Ah Well, may as well nail your head to a tree.

Luckily, the Boxcar was undamaged, and I only lost a 1/24 Mustang kit. There is a God!
Guy

@ Mark: I would like to see those builds, I love both a/c.

@ Guy: Nice haul there, I will post pictures later from the two boxes that came today.

Bob

Hi there

Postie's been busy today at Castle Aeroscale!

First off there was a pack of new goodies from RB Productions for Review - new style scribers and new seat harnesses:



And then the parcel delivery brought a big box from France ( thanks Jean-Luc! ) with samples from Squadron and MPM!:





I'll get on with Reviews as soon as I can.

All the best
