Thanks Carlos!

It is rather small - should be fun though!

Thanks TJ!

Another couple of thoughts I had on that kit you bought.

I think, IIRC, that the gun barrels were a bit clunky. I used AM resin replacements on the two I built.

The other thing, and you probably already know this so apologies, if you choose to build the post war option, there's a very good chance that it's not NMF but rather RAF High Speed Silver, which was actually painted on.

Got another set of 3D printed exhausts for the Super Hornet.

Those afterburner nozzles look nice! Does the set come with one pair open, and one pair closed? That’s enough for two aircraft if they do…

No it's just the one pair. I have one pair closed that I got at Nationals. This pair is the open version cause they were out of the closed ones.

Picked up some goodies and another X plane cause the last one was fun and easy

Oh I do like that X-3 kit!

Picked this one up to use with my Rufe. I was surprised to see the mis-spelling of the name on the radiator but the marking on the plastic is right. Komatsu is still a big manufacturer of construction equipment.

Excellent score John! I would love to grab one someday!

Great little kit John. I used it to experiment with rust... I went a bit overboard.
