Re: New Mission Model colors

Bronze Green is available from MRP.

But, Stik is right BG and DDG are very hard to find in paint ranges, unless you do some substitution to get them.

I use MRP for BG, and 34092 for DDG (Aeromaster Acrylic), not having much choice in the matter.

Re: Acrylic Primer Questions

Hah, Medic,,,,,,,now you know why I quit 1/700 ship modeling. I had boxes and boxes of detail parts for many different navies. All for ships 1" to 6" long. Some of those items had to be assembled to make a 20mm or 40mm gun, or a fire director or range finder. I do have one question for Car...

Re: New Mission Model colors

I really like their stuff. (and everyone knows by now how picky I am about model paints) My only problem is the timing of their product introduction. They came out with their products just as I was finding the last few colors that I was looking for, in older paint lines. IF they had come out just as...

A full migration

I don't recommend doing this, but there really is no choice. Anne got the idea that we should move, and buy a bigger house,,,,,,,in town. Okay, hun, no problem, I will just pack up my toys and move them when you pick one. She is thinking about my age (hey, I'm only 61 !) That means that she is only ...

Re: What's on your work bench atm ?

haha, Thomas, I don't argue with anyone, anymore. I just have photocopies of various photos of what I built,,,when "you did that wrong" pops up, I either reach into a manila folder and produce the p-copy,,,,or go out to the car, bring it in, folded up, and hand it to them without waiting f...

Re: What's on your work bench atm ?

Skyhawks. (I know, a big shock to everyone on the site, lol) They are all for a future contest, one has never been done in model form before, and on a base. One is going to be called "wrong" by all the people that "know" Skyhawks,,,,,,and one has scratchbuilt add on weapons that ...

Re: Zoukei-Mura 1/49 scale F-4D Phantom II

Thanks, but, I only build 1/72.

Although a 1/49 Phantom would be tempting, being just a tad smaller than the Hasegawa 1/48 models.

Re: A question of scale?

My first model was in 1965, it was a 1/72 scale Revell Corsair. I kept to that scale for a while, because of all the fighters available in 1/72. I have looked at possibly changing scales a few times over the decades, especially when 1/48 got more options for available aircraft models. But, I stayed ...

an ANA and FS 595 timeline, and notes

I hope some of you find this of use, or at least find it an interesting read. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/hangardeckresource/ana-fs-and-mil-spec-timeline-t81.html I will still have to type up the Bibliography, and the "free FS paint chip" list, though. Anyone is free to agree or disagr...

I'm not MIA

Hi folks, just a quick message to let you know that I am not MIA. My laptop is, however, completely TU (tits up) at the moment, though. Because of that, I don't have a good connection to online forums, or to my music work, or my model spreadsheets, etc, etc. I am typing this on Anne's laptop, which ...
