i agree arki that is what the build is about and it should be the second choice that we all decided on (my bad wasnt thinking) Hasegawa F-16C block 30 was the second most voted on kit on your list . unfortunately the three kits you posted we never even voted on. sorry for going against what i said before. but to keep in the spirit of the build and why we all voted in the first place this is how it will have to be. if you do not want to build that kit and want to drop from the build we will understand. we all have put hard work getting this build up and running so we should stick to the rules we have decided upon. kenny

yeah... that was what I was asking about... the dope that I am forgot that on the original post. Unless I muster up some motivation, it looks like I'm dropping out of the build.

Sorry guys

its okay jin sounds like you have a lot on your plate and i think you said you may not be modelling for awhile thanks for being a part of it all though .

Hey all we have a new member Wiccan and we all need to vote one more time if you could send me or Sir IL your decisions so we can tally them up that would be cool. i will try to email everyone on the list between tomorrow and wednesday to get Wiccan his build.

No cats here my friends.... just six a month old daughter (that never gets close to the desk) and two weenie dogs (that do get close to the desk). I haven't gotten really far on the 162. A lot of stuff going on gettin' ready to go downrange. This project will be done before then.... I think. Anyways, I did what some may call impossible. I was able to get a decal to suck down to a raised instrument panel and not look like a toy bought at the swap-meet. A glass of Italian wine some solvaset and a great deal of patience and it looks OK. I used some Testors canopy cement to make the glass for the gauges. Like I said not perfect but a decent shot..... I have to keep reminding myself SCRATCHBUILD! More to follow later in the week, JOSH

Looks like the real thing Hook!

got some votes in for wiccan thanks guys

kenny

No cat pics to post but I do have a bird pic.

262 progress...finally.  Got the camo applied.  Some first here.  First try at spraying squiggles.   First time with new AB... Badger 100LG.  Trying to get the right combo of paint/thinner ratio, air pressure, spray distance, paint flow (jeez, this is more complicated than a golf swing) to get nice thin squiggles... mine are too "fuzzy".  Any thoughts from the group to improve this would be appreciated.  First time lightening the color with about 10% white to fill in panels unevenly for a faded look.  Actually did this once before but was in combo with black preshading.  No preshaded this time to see how it turns out.

Man I love the 262 and yours is looking pretty good Marc!   Squiggles look good to me from what I can see.

Hook, excellent work on the Ip. 

she looks really great ! wing i need to start on mine before christmas is here and there is another vote lol.

Now that I have built one.... I want to do me 262's... and the Tamiya kit is sweet.

Thanks for looking and thnaks for a great GB Kenny

Everything is stunning Marc!     What a awesome paint job!!!!  Same for the decals!!!

More stunning is the gun bay (I like guns ) and the landing gear housing, absolutely good details on them!

Really well done!!!!

So Kenny, does this mean if I drag my feet long enough, I'll get the slowest build turtle award??  I always like to get awards...

P.S. Really nice ME wing_nut.  REALLY nice.... Can't wait to see what you crank out next.  What was second on your list?
