You're gonna go blind rigging 1/72 scale biplane. :giggles: I should know because it is hell doing it. Not sure how much easier on 1/48 scale biplanes. I have a 1/32 scale biplane kit in my stash so that scale would be more easier to do.

Good luck, brother. Let's see what you can accomplish. Not to say it can't be done; it's just a PITA to do in 1/72 scale.

So I ordered some decals for the P-3 Orion hoping that now I could finally finish it. Yeah, no. The decals I got are from the Paxcon model show and only have the squadron specific markings and nothing else. So I still need decals for a P-3 Orion. :bored:

Nice! I have the P-3 Orion kit myself and will do markings for Pax River NAS. My uncle worked on that base after he got out of the Navy. My sister lives near that base and I have been on that base a couple times - first with my uncle, second time my sister's friend's husband took my family on the base for a tour.

I'll need to pick up a decal set for Pax River soon.

If you got to the Paxcon website, you can get these decals for $20.

I've got the F-104 pit and thought I'd better grab this before they disappear again
