It's looking great Toshi, really nice. I have this kit on my shelf, perhaps one day I will pull it down and have at it.

 

 

 

Thank you sir.  I'd love for you to post your build.  That would be great!  I can't wait.  Thank you for the read and reply.

This is my kit. Do you know if Verlinden or any other company make update set for this bird?

"slowly" ??? You gotta be kidding! In addition to being a fine model builder you must be in the running for the quickest.

Your work is always a pleasure to view and I like your choice of kits.

I had been talking to a friend about the old kit, and trying to find one.  Now I have to get one of the new ones!  Always liked that kit, it was one of my favorites back when I built it in late 60s or early 70s.

 

There's a bunch of these and the old ones on eBay for $20.00 plus dollars.  Not too bad of a price for these classic kits in it's original condition. Check them out when you can.

Another kit I'd like to make is the old Monogram Devestator kit.

This is an interesting subject, Toshi, and even more intriguing with the included PE. I'll be looking forward to seeing this one progress. Smile

Completed Monogram 1:48 O-S2U Kingfisher High Tech PE Included OOB
Posted by Toshi on Friday, January 22, 2016 4:28 PM

The heading (Title) speaks for itself as the PE was included with this kit.  WOW!  I was shocked hence my immediate purchase for the Kingfisher.  Since I was 8 years old I always wanted to build this model.  I felt it was a bit intimidating back then as I've never built a seaplane.  Below will be my step by step build of the O-S2U.  

As for my bf 109?  I'm still waiting for my canopy mask, if it doesn't arrive by next week, I'll need to contact the seller via eBay.  Thank you forum members for your support and read and replies.  I so look forward to these each and everyday!  

Toshi

This is really a treat, it has very nice detail.  I've never assembled PE in 1:48.  It seems to look difficult.

Remember these?  LOL!

Loose parts.
