Re: John Eaton's Build Logs
Thanks, Carlos. Obviously it is a posed photo as there is no black smoke coming from that exhaust pipe! Here's the D-7 from the same source as the grader. I had to do some repair work on the hard nose and hood where the build was incomplete, thick CA and dental alginate were used for that. http://go...

Re: Eduard 1/48 Hawker Tempest II
