Ah, the old Monogram F-100. I've built that kit many times, it's a good one. Save my seat, I need to go make some popcorn! 🙂

I think the only old Monogram quarter scale kit I don't like is the F-14. That one's a pig. The Convair Delta Wings are really nice, the F-102 and F-106.
@Guido - I think we need some nachos, too.

Their quarter scale F-111A is not so good, either, as it's basically the old Aurora kit with some more panel lines added. But I grew up with their original models in the 60s, you know the ones with bombs that drop, flaps that move, landing gear that retracts, etc. I loved it, even though the "moveable" features usually broke after you used them once or twice...

Better rent a giant screen and put them all in the garden
Or better, maybe Tim can incorporate a video thing device so we can broadcast modelling sessions on Scalemates thru our webcam

I think the bare metal finish is more coloful as the decals are better

Goin' strong Augie, say, do you use flat or round brushes for your pant jobs ?
15 July 2012, 12:09

lol i use flat brushes mainly willy, i find they give best coverage and leave the fewer brush marks

Thx! Another one, if using enamels (Humbrol, Revell...) do you thin them or do you pop your brush straight into the jar ?

very much depends on the paint.. some cans are thicker than others.. most are thined further ands its multiple coats

Looks different now. You changed the colours... or the camera? The blue colours look so different compared to the previous photos...

I worked a bit more on the interior of the Huey, but not enough to take new pictures.
