THE OFFICIAL IN THE BUFF B52 GROUP BUILD

Hey, All,

Buffjock asked me to post his latest project - so here it is.

Good job, Allen!

Good to hear Russ:

I never use the Explorer kit, so i never would have guessed it was an "upgrade."

Of course, I've argued micro soft is 'retro-grade' even on a good day!

Dom

Ok, I'm fixed. I had to uninstall the Internet Explorer 11 upgrade. Figures

Well, no I can't. It wants me to install a host of addons and I ain't gonna do it.

Sorry, Allen.

Hey Russ,

No problem like that on my end.

It might be your ISP is having a glitch supporting the site functions,

or there's been an "upgrade" not supported by your system.

Can't tell from my end.

Try FSM for tech support if you haven't already,

Dom

Hey, All,

I've been trying to post a picture here but when I select the Use rich formatting option, the tool bar doesn't show up. Are any of you having the same problem?

Russ

Well'

I spent a lot of time searching my stacks for the rogue J-57 left over from my BUFF

build, and I can't find the dang thing anywhere's.

I was hoping to get into some building over the holidays, and thayzzz already over!

I had to work last week so it was holidayus-interupptus.

Struggling just to keep the building surface of my desk from being piled up

with less important stuff!

I did get a !/72 Ventura for Krimas, always wanted a 1/32 version....

I did manage to find the bomb-casing for a Super-Gadget as I was diggin'

for the J-57.

Guys, have a

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Dom

Dom,

Shoulda known youd at least have a picture of it! I bet if you look long enough, you probably have the kit!!

i wish someone made the Trieste in kit form, would love to get me hands on one!! Next time your in the stash room, holler out for Capt. Don Walsh or Jaque Piccard!! One of em might just holler back!!

MK

Hey,

Check out one of my How Why and wonder Books:

LOL.....the striped tank is full of petrol, gasoline, benzine, a rail-road tanker car full of napalm...

NO Smoking allowed while viewing the Trieste....

Dom

I sleep on the Draakon, Shermans and Panzers, B1's, Apollos, 1/32 Phantoms, and the Dakota, and a few

WWII battleships.

Dom

Lol, Dom, which boxes do you sleep on??!

Yeah Kong:

The XY-B3549 had 'NEW KEW LURE" engines, and was especially equipped

to puff special breakfast cereal to kids so they wouldn't end up as socialists....lol

My philosophy was different......

I wanted to see the after glow........

Dom

And a B-57?? dang Dom yer killin me here.. i bet theres a XY-B3549 in there somewhers too.... Love the Dive bomber B-52 didnt know they did that too!!

Majer Kong

Dom, the other radio is the SSB- Secure Side Band aka your PMs...

Majer Kong

Dom,

Did I see a 1/72 B-36 in that pile?? Dang shame that thing aint here, I beena wantin one of them ever since they retired em!!

Got a coupla 'dogs and a complete gearset for the 105. Check the other radio Dom!!

Dont sweat the J-57, in about 20 years I will be lookin fer TF-33s!!

Majer Kong

Well;

The satellite is taking pictures Russ, so as soon as they get uploaded to the

Cyberspaceage, they will be available.

This is an onerous task. I found out I may have 500 kits.

So, this is a photo review of about half my BMARC yard:

So, that is a SAT scan of about half the BMARC yard. Those brown cardboard boxes are full of inventoried kits. That scan doesn't include armor, or legacy kits, or local dump sites.

It also doesn't include about another 200 or so kits stacked in the same space.

I, much like the US inventory officials, cannot locate the cherished J-57 from the

1/72 BUFF D kit.

Errrr, embarrassing, except I have Kathlene Propylene Sabaylyouooose looking after their

very wary where-abouts, so you know you will get to the truth....LOL

Dom

Dom

Lol! I'd like to see that! Show us some pictures

Russ

I just figured out what my styrene bone-yard is called:

BMARC - Boxcar's Maintenance And Regeneration Center

Almost as big as this one:

-Dom

Looking for the super gadget.....

Looking for the J-57.....

Looking for my mind.......

I hate losing that stuff.........

yeah,

he was smiin' that day, all happy an' like.....new hat....

Dom, i think that little cowboy dude looks a liitle like Major Kong!!

Hey Kong:

Yeah, too far gone my friend, you make us feel normal.

One J-57 incoming....

Dom

Don't you mess with THE KONG!

this could happen to you......

errr, checking for the gadgets, I'll let you know,,,,,,,,,

Russ, The end result is I may have some  home made parts for ya. Im working on making a fan face for the J-57 engine without the nacelle. ( Shh, I will send you a pic later on, may have you beta test the final product...) Currently working on NB-52A 52-0003 as a ramp mate to 52-0008.

Anyone  that has the extra J-57 engine and isnt going to use it, Id sure like to have a few extras!! Look at some AMARC photos and you will see what Im talking about.. (May even try to cast a few myself and see how that goes....)

Dom,  Do you happen to have any more of those "special" wepons?? You sent me one a while back and Id like to load the CIA B-52 with at least 6 of em.

Anyhoo, Thanks to Dom and  anyone else who helps me realize my goal, and yes Dom, I know I need help, Thanks for the concern, but its already too late for me!!!

Majer Kong

Hi, Allen,

Sorry bud, I only had one model and I used the engine. But it looks like Dom has you covered . Looking forward to see that monster completed!

Cheers,

Russ

Hey Kong,

I can donate the spare parts,

but obviously you need help for a

serious problem.......I hate to enable

a person so far down the path.....lol.....

Errrr...what are you going to do with all those

engine bits?

PM your coordinates and I'll start the process of getting them out to you.

I also have landing gear if''n yoooz inerested.....

Dom

Russ,

I was working on some "inventory" on my AMARC build and a thought occured to me, ( I know, I was just as surprised...) Anyone in this GB who is doing the 1/72  Revell Monogram B-52 that isnt using the"optional" exposed engine, Id sure like to have a few extras! I only have 11 and could use a few more.  Anybody??

Hello everyone,

I am a new guy here.  I am getting back into modeling after an on and off thing over the past many years.  My first project is a B-52H, an old Revell kit, #4584 unfortunately I seem to misplaced the instructions.  Due to the age of the kit the instructions are no longer available from Revell.  If anyone has the directions and could email a pdf file of them I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

John

I don't have the kit, but welcome to the build!

There might be someone here in the forums who

can help you out, maybe post a request under Aircraft, Community Assistance, and/or General Modelling Discussion.

Let me know if you want me to put you down for the 'H'

Dom

John,

I have a copy here, but its made of paper...
