Hi There

Welcome back to the hobby,

I have never stopped building models, i started when i was 8 yrs old.

I love to modify and scratch build on my kits. i have just finished converting a FW 190 d9  into a Ta 152 -H in 1/24 scale. i must be mad.

Happy building

Marc

truth

i painted for 5 mins and cleaned it for next 20 hehe

how do you guys clean airbrushes? are you using those "airbrush cleaners" liquids?

Sounds like a pretty good deal, Luke. If you are just starting out (with airbrushing) you might want to invest in a single action model though. Dual action are a bit more difficult to clean and can be a little temperamental to use.

Best of luck with the endeavor.......

hello

so today i got airbrush and compressor ;)

airbrush is Master s68 dual action

compressor Airbrush-Depot TC-20 Tank less air compressor 

Got is for $60

Hello Wizard,

Here in NYC (Manhattan) there is really only 1 model shop.It is on Lexington Ave and about 93rd St., and is called Jan'sHobby Shop. They have everything you need. The stuff is a bit pricey (NYC style) and sometimes the people working there seem to be not too interested, but it has all the stuff you were talking about.

Regards,

Stenscience 

well i found one store  close to me so ill go there on weekend and see what they got , get stuff and start to work ;) i will definitely post pictures and questions while i do that

thank you again

to the forums, glad to have you here!

Welcome Luke.

I am not real familiar with the F-22 kits, but typically a "Hase" kit will beat out a Revell as far as detail and extras. The Revell will usually one-up the Hase for lower price however. I would imagine either could be made into a nice replica, considering the newness of the F-22 in general.

Keep us posted on the build progress............

hello and thank you for replies

well i am getting testors  airbrush set this weekend , then i gotta find some good store here in nyc to get paints , knife and few brushes . Also some good glue for models.

Hi Luke.  Welcome.  I'm sure plenty of people will want to help you out with this impending project, and it might be helpful if you let us know what sort of equipment you've got to work with, (i.e. do you have an airbrush?  What sorts of glue/tools do you prefer?)

I'm afraid I don't know anything about F-22 kits in particular, but they'll all be very modern kits from major manufacturers and as such likely to be free of traumatically difficult problems.

to the forums. Hope to see you around.

Welcome to the forums Ron

Welcome to the Forums & back to the Hobby Luke .  Can't help on your F-22 question.
