So while at Nats, I found some 3D printed exhausts cans for the Revell Super Hornets. I bought one set so that I could test the fit before I ordered another set. One fits just about perfectly, the other one, yeah not so much. I think I can get them to pass though. We'll see. I'd much rather use the 3D ones since they have a lot more detail and have the overlapping petals like the real ones.

Re: The Bench Of Doom
I also got some JDAMs from Flying Leatherneck Decals. One set are the 500lb and the other set are the 1000lb versions. The 1000lb come in two pieces and a fuse in the nose. The 500lb ones come in two pieces with the bomb, nose bracket and fuse. They have the texture of the thermally protected Navy versions of the JDAM.

Re: The Bench Of Doom
If you're looking for good Navy and Marine stuff, Flying Leathernecks Decals are great! Dave, the owner, is a great guy (met him at Nats) and really has some great stuff. I have some AH-1Z Viper, UH-1Y and MV-22 Osprey stuff too.

Re: The Bench Of Doom
Finished masking the Egg Shuttle so that I can paint the white. I'm also deciding what load out for the A-G Super Hornet.

Re: The Bench Of Doom
About to drill some small holes in the bombs to make them easier to paint. I'll stick a toothpick in there for the clamps to hold on to.

Re: The Bench Of Doom
Doing the slow boring work on the pylons, weapons and drop tanks. The detail is a little soft so I'm doing a little rescribing and riveting.

Slow but sure, you’re almost to the point of basic camo paint.
