Re: Monogram 1/48 F-20 Tigershark
Thank you Erik and Shark.
Erik, I did try to base this as factually as I could on MAF F-5Es, and I am glad to hear that you like the way that I pulled it off.
Shark, I used Humbrol Satin for the top coat. I love the finish that it gives.

Re: Monogram 1/48 TBD-1
Thanks Shark. Monogram has not released the TBD in a few years. Just a guess, but I bet it is gonna be released again not too far in the distant future, seeing how they have been re issuing nearly all their of their old kits. IIRC, Squadron made a vac form canopy for it, and I think Falcon has a TBD...

Re: Tamiya 1/35 M13/40 Carro Commando conversion
So I scratched up the details that I needed using various odds & ends from my spares bin: 1m optical rangefinder, goniometer, and jerry can rack http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t671/stikpusherII/Carro%20Commando/100_0201_zps44e540a5.jpg then test fitted them in place http://i1319.photobucket...

Tamiya 1/35 M13/40 Carro Commando conversion
So this started as a quick build for a GB on FSM using this kit and refenrces, along with the basic turret replacement part saved my build of the Italeri M13/40. The main kit build up extremely quickly, basicly taking me a few hours in one evening. http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t671/stikpusher...

Monogram 1/48 TBD-1
I completed this one last year as part of a GB elsewhere. I added a lot of scrathbuilt details as well as generic USN PE stuff to dress up this classic. In my eyes, this kit wears its age well, being that it is nearly 40 years old. Markings are from Eagle Strike for a TBD off of USS Yorktown at the ...
