I found some time to work on these kits, so here are some new photos. Thanks for following!

Nicolas
The instruction isn't mentioning the stand at all. As the torpedo is under the COG I would try to fix it to the torpedo.
Very nice progres so far. 👍

Ogre-Trombone
Leaning that way, Nicolas. I don't like it, but that's probably what I'll need to do.

Mr D
Nice model 👌
Was the Devastator similar to the Dauntless??
Like the subject....will be watching 😃👍

Ogre-Trombone
@Mr D, the Devastator was a pre-War torpedo bomber that was one of the most advanced aircraft of its time. Unfortunately. it was already obsolete at the start of the war. It was slow and underpowered, and early-War tactics left its crews extremely vulnerable.

Skyhiker
The Douglas TBD Devastator, was the U.S. Navy's main torpedo bomber. It was introduced in 1935, but was obsolete by 1939. They were replaced with the Grumman TBF Avenger.

Mr D
Thanks for the info
Ogre & Skyhiker 👍👍
I didn't know much about them, the pre-war yellow wings are smart scheme 👌

Mid Franconian
Great project!

Guy Rump
Looking great, following. 👍

Casey Beckett
Great idea, the foam/tape /white glue - I'm stealing this!

Mr D
Both coming along really nicely now, the flap lines look a lot better now.
Looking like all the build updates.
Good luck with next steps 👌😁👍👍

Ogre-Trombone
Thanks, Mr D. I'm trying not to let the asymmetry bother me on the black-primed model. I wish I'd made a template or measured them instead of trying to follow the old panel lines. Still, I'm glad I made the effort.

Pure improvisation, Casey! It seems to be holding up so far. I want to do open or partially-opened canopies, so it didn't make sense to glue them in place, which is what I usually would have done.

Ogre-Trombone
It's very hot and dry where I am right now, and the paint isn't responding the way I'd like. I'll have to come back when conditions are better.

Mr D
Your doing a 👍 job, All the hard work will pay off, nice project 👍👍

Ogre-Trombone
Painting is done. Now it's on to clear coat and decals.

Guy Rump
Coming along very nicely! 👍

Skyhiker
Wow looks great

Mr D
Looks good 👌
Nice colours, the wing surface doesn't look to easy to mask.
Coming along nicely 👍👍

Gary Victory
Lovely work Orge.

Mid Franconian
They look sooo cool!

Skyhiker
I'm impressed on how well you work even with those raised elements. They look fantastic.

Neil
This all looks marvellous!

Mr D
^^^^^^Good job on decals^^^^^
Impressive aircraft 👍👍

Landlubber Mike
Fantastic work!

I wonder if this is maybe because the culprit photo album and new project posts have no topic associated with them? My "Topic" filters on the right has its first entry blank except for a quantity. I would say posts having no topic should not be displayed when a user has their News Feed configured to show only their favorited topics. If a post is not a favorited topic (and this includes null topics) then it shouldn't be shown when the News Feed is configured to show only My Topics.

Starbase101
Anything?

Starbase101
The News Feed is "broken".

scalemates
checking, did a manual fix. Not sure yet how they "appear"

Starbase101
I'll let you know if I keep seeing them. Having the News Feed filtered to My Topics should be showing only topics that I've favorited, nothing else.

Starbase101
Two new posts are in my News Feed today which are not in my favorited topics. I should not be seeing stuff like this with my configuration.

scalemates
got enough examples, thx

Starbase101
Any ideas yet to why this is occurring? I'm getting multiple posts each day in my News Feed which is supposed to be filtered to my favorited topics (and the posts are not at all related to my topics).

scalemates
last night I deployed a change and bulkfixed all old entries. So far it is looking good

Starbase101
This morning there are 4 new posts in my filtered News Feed having nothing at all to do with my favorited topics. I'd say it's not fixed yet.

Found the issue

There was a rogue topic (with an empty topic name) under Star Wars. The moment somebody added Star Wars as their favorite topics it would find all items with an empty topic.

Starbase101
Cool, thanks.

Starbase101
(Shouldn't empty topic names get automatically reported to you so they can be deleted?)
