Mark, John, and Tony, nice scores all the way around you guys!

A 1/72 Flying Saucer eh? How do they know it’s not 1/76? :giggles:

John I love the X-3! I always remember staring at the box art of the old Revell kit in the stores when I was a kid… :hmm:

Tony, I really am interested in that T-72B3 kit. We sold out of our last shipment of those double quick after they arrived at work, so I’m curious to see how this builds up… :lashed:

This kit looks much nicer. I've read that the canopy fit is a bit tough so not looking forward to that. But it has a beautiful 3d printed seat (probably won't see) and supposed to come with canopy masks which are missing from my kit - kinda need them so I've contacted the vendor.
Also it's the same scale as the X-15 I did.
Thanks,
John

Loving these AK Markers. Thanks Carlos for posting about these things. I originally got the Red/Yellow/White 3 pack. Then I heard they have metallic shades,so I picked up those three as well today along with a flat black. I think that should do me for a while, unless of course they come out with 'Insignia Red' or something close for those USN Jet gear doors which I think these are just perfect for!

Very nice--where did you buy that from? I could use something like that as well.

Chris, AK does make a "Signal Red" paint marker in the line at shade RAL 3020. I'm not sure how close that is to US Insignia Red, but it might be worth a look for you.
