Totally agree with you. The white bottom and EDSG uppers just look right

I've heard Greyhound was very good. Unfortunately, I don't have AppleTV.

That will work!





probably the most attractive paint scheme that the B-17 and B-24s ever wore

Oh wow.... I do like those schemes. Maybe the Liberator would convincing enough to do it in the scheme after all.

and the depth charges!!!!

You can do a 7 day free trial. It's a GREAT movie.

Agreed! I watched it again with my sone when he was home on leave a few months ago and enjoyed it even more the second time. A great counterpoint to Das Boot.

Picked up another Sheman, or two. I've gone ahead and gotten the hair brained idea of building several of the variants. I picked up the Jumbo on the cheap on Amazon and the Firefly was a good deal on evilbay. Still need to get the 105 and at least a wood clad PT variant as well. I'm sure there are others. I have the M4A3 76, M4A3E8 Fury, 2 M4A3E8, M4A3 75 as well.

Got a new bookshelf for more room for books and models. I moved all the Gundam to the new shelf.
