Wow! Mr. Toshi, that is a fantastic build. The details on your engine are 1st class and I love the fade on the blue topside. Nice job.

Looks great Toshi.  I like the clear cowel that lets us see the work on the engine, and the colors are fantastic.  As usual, you did great decal work.  And those look like some BIG decals.

Excellent job, once again.

Looks very nice, from what I can see. Funny (not), that after I select to NOT EVER send notifications from that image posting site, I see nothing but 404 errors.

That’s your best build to date Tosh. You did a remarkable job on it. I like the clear cowling and engine as well.

Another fantastic build off of your bench Toshi.  I only  can hope mine comes out a third as nice. 

The radial is super nice with the extra work you put in it with the wiring.  I like the idea of the clear cowling, and am planning on painting one half of mine, splitting it vertically.

Nice job.  Seems like a really great kit.  I can see the thumbnails in your latest post post but I can't see the images when I click on them.  The older ones are fine.

Another great build Toshi can't wait to see what you start next.

Toshi,

Tell the Mrs. not to worry. I still can't view the images from your final post but I can view the images from the 23rd. Strange.

Anyway, the way everything was looking I agree with others that you've done a great job on this kit!

You knocked another one out of the park again, Toshi! Another great build.

Best wishes to you and your family. And enjoy the rest of the summer, so far a pretty good one.

Toshi,

The little thumbnails of your model look fabulous! The problem with viewing them on Postimage this morning for me is that they don't appear at all. All I get are the usual stuff from Postimage such as:

"These Steamy Ladies Will Help You Discover What Passion Is"
"A Sexy Brunette Wants To Spoil You Silly (Message Her Now!)"

Not sure why the images (of your model) are not appearing.

 

Let me be the first to once again apologize for this unpleasant discrepancy.  I’ll have Mrs. Toshi look into it.  A different pair of eyes might help looking into this issue.  Please except my sincerest apologies.

Your friend, Toshi

Really nice, Toshi. I like the faded blue top-side. I still can't get over how tou find kits with clear parts to expose the innards.

 

Zoukei Mura has a limited supply (Limited Catalog) and is extremely complex with a extremely demanding price point whilst Trumpeter is much more numerous (Extensive Catalog) less complex with a much more relaxed price point then the aforementioned.  Note that Trumpeter is not without it‘s error’s as GMorrison so pointed out.  Ultimately, ”You pay for what you get” stands the test of times.

Hmmm, the ones I got said that the girl would make the first move...

Here I have the first photo of the engine.  I was able to wire it through Lawdogs114 tutorial.  The rest of the photos show the F4F-3 Wildcat.  Thank you FSM Forum Members for supporting my WIP.  I so greatly appreciate the interest in my build!
