It looks like I may need to update the Forum software soon. We are seeing a lot of bogus account creation requests... I figure its because we're using an older version of the software. When I do the update, it will be late in the evening as to not disrupt things. I may only be able to post an alert an hour or so before I disable login access... Thanks, Eric

There will? Then someone needs to send me that information. Eric

The online registration will go live soon. Eric

I took the pic, but really don't remember much. Its most like a Wingnut Wings Albatross... but no idea which one, but likely a D.V (a?).. 1/32 scale... I think the decals might be from Pheon >> https://www.pheondecals.com Eric

If you are interested, I also have some spare PE bits for the 956 from Scale Motorsport.... i think many would work on the 962. E

You know I might have an extra set of the Canon decals... I have a sheet in case you need it.... Eric

You might be able to find this decal sheet somewhere cheaper.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/STUDIO-27-PORSCHE-962C-LEYTON-HOUSE-16-JSPC-1987-DECAL-for-1-24-HASEGAWA/232148693297?hash=item360d23f131:g:xhgAAOSwiDFYMIsS I dont see too many S27 sets with the wheel decals. You might be able to ask Steve at https://www.hiroboy.com which set might work. Eric

No, I meant using the information there as a template to teach children....

Would the Adult Building Course be at all useful? http://members.ipmsusa3.org/book/adult-building-course E

Well, that depends on the local contest rules. For the Nationals, see http://www.ipmsusa.org/national_contest_committee/files/2017_national_contest_rules.pdf - Page 2, #14 & #15.

You could check on the Starship Modeler Forums... http://www.starshipmodeler.net/talk/ Eric

Agree there are stacks of options within that 8 year window, but ferrari (or possibly senna) seem most likely. They need a return on the license... I'd guess 156/85, f189 then f187 in that order. Otherwise, yes, the 99t Nope.

I don't recall having an issue with cut & paste. Let me try a few things. E Text from a web page >> Apparently there are no screws to attach the rear wheels, like there are for the front wheels. Nor is there anything in the instructions about screws for the rear wheels. This is some text I wrote in a text editor to cut and paste in the forums. This is text from Microsoft Word…

If I recall correctly, Microsoft will be releasing a new version of MS Paint (probably named differently) in the near future.

That depends... are you looking to do things like aircraft insignia (simple graphics) or complex images, like editing a photo to turn into a decal? Photoshop Elements in only $99 and does go on sale, but that is more geared towards editing photos. E

A nice article. https://kitbashed.com/blog/a-complete-history-of-the-millennium-falcon

I'm open to suggestions... but not really sure what would be the best options... E

Yeah, its been difficult getting images that work well for the page. I will look though the what was posted, but.... Eric

I believe so. e

It's back - apparently it likes to lie to me about what time things get turned off... E
