I hope Vance takes a while then. Mine just arrived in the mail today and I need to get paint before I can even start it.

Manstein's revenge:

Once Vance completes his HO the GB will be closed and all MOJO's who have completed a HO will have their's featured in a separate thread...

I'll see what I can do for you Rich!

I like the Winter theme idea. It should look really great when you're done. I am thinking of a more futuristic scheme. It will make a nice compliment to my Wild Wings build F102.

I am amazed it got here so quickly. I'm still waiting on a package from MI that was ordered the same day. Now I need to get paints. I already have a big fresh tube of Squadron Putty. I am trying to fond a better drying fan too. I want to get one of those old 60s/70s oscillating fans for the bench, but they are hard to find. Any suggestions on Paint? I never 100% trust the instructions.

carsanab:

great!!!! good news...and looks like you will have some time to mentally prepare for the kit and to stock up on some fresh putty and sanding sticks...I got some tips for you when you decide to start....let me know...

Carlos

I like the fan idea...just keep your fiddly bits clear of the blades...

as for painting....anything goes,,,,since it is a hypothetical subject...sort of...Im making mine Tropical...as soon as I can get my AB mottle skills down.....yuo what would be interesting also....a Russian Winter white -wash...with splinter camo just peeking thru...besides that all else standard for Luft A/C.....RLM 66 interior and RLM 2 insides of covers..

YAY!!! The PO is finally working around here. I got a lovely brown wrapped package from China. Inside was a beautiful Dragon 1/48 Ho229!!!! Now as soon as I finish up a couple of P38s, I can dig in..

OK, you've got your parcel from another continent while I've stalled on the scratch-build. I've got to get back on that this week before I get passed AGAIN! Whistling

Wonder what Big Sis would glean from this thread if she were to stumble across it?

MAJ Mike:

Manstein's revenge:

Three forward passes have been completed---who has the ball now?...I repeat, who has the ball now?

On Friday, the gadget was transferred to a uniformed representative for the U.S. government for delievery to brown at his hidden bunker north of the Mason-Dixon Line. It should be given into his hands by tomorrow at the earliest.

The feds have no idea what they are doing for us... muahahahahahaa!!!
