Thinking about buy the 15 x 20 standard paint booth from Micro Mark. Any own one and have a opinion about it. Thanks, Eric

Filled out the change of address form but when I hit submit the next page that comes up shows a box with what looks like problems with the form. Not sure if the form is working. Is their an e-mail I can send a change of address to just to be sure. Eric

This might sound like sacrilege to some but I had all my issues since I started in 1975 as well as some earlier issues I had picked up along the way. Wife and I are planning on moving across the US and I sat down to pack them up. As I started going thru them I realized that I had not looked at any of the old issues of Quarterly, Update or the Journal in at least 5 years. Decided I didn't need to take the cross country if I wasn't using them, so I took them to my IPMS club and let anyone who wanted them have them. Also doing the same thing with my old AMPS Boresight, MMiR and Fine Scale Modeler magazines I had. Never really realize how much room they took up. Eric

Wife and I are planning on moving across the US this summer. Any suggestion on moving built kits. Thanks, Eric

One of our members in our club painted the raised panel lines black. He then painted the aircraft Olive drab. After it had dried he lightly sanded the panel lines to exposed the black paint. It looked really good and sounded very easy. Eric

I agree with Gil. It took me awhile to find the Chapters map when I was looking. Also there used to be a list of foreign IPMS websites that was useful but I don't find that anywhere. Eric

Finished Academy's M-36 kit. Personal opinion, pass on this kit. Interior in the hull is not correct for an M-36 and the turret interior parts are not installed correctly. I also believe the turret is the wrong size and shape (cannot confirm as I cannot find a decent overhead drawing of the vehicle). Also the kit represents an diesel M-36B2 and not the gasoline version used in ETO. Anyway added some resin stowage to the turret and a Tasca 50 cal. Did do some work on the interior as well to try and get things right. Painted as a M-35 during the Battle of the Bulge. Eric

Looks like you have some 3D printed phone box and exhaust screen. Who makes those? Eric

Planning on using a set of Panda Plastics T54E1 tracks and duck bills I've got in my stash. Eric

Looking good. I just started an early M-50 as well. Mine is an Dragon M4A4 hull with a Formations turret. Eric

I have not built the kit but one of our club members has (he has also built the Dragon kit). He said the suspension was way easier than Dragons and looked just as good. Eric

I've had the same reaction using Future as well as Alclad clear coat gloss. I think the issue might be that Microset and sol use ammonia in it's formula and ammonia attacks water based products. I do use a second coat of clear after I decal and it seems to clear up the cloudiness issue. Eric

I think the kit was by AMT. It was a 1/16 (I think) kit of Shelby 427 Cobra. I don't know what the used as a reference. One of the prominent item on the body is the oil cooler scope in the front, totally missing from the kit. The engine parts really didn't match up well. It had dual carbs but the way they were installed didn't make any sense. Finally just tossed the kit, wasn't worth the time to try and fix it. Eric

First store I remember having models was a department store in my home town. A little while later I found a true hobbyshop that really got me into modeling. Eric

UMM-USA at http://www.umm-usa.com/ and roll models http://www.rollmodels.com/ carries Pavla. Not sure if they have the set you want Eric

If you have a TAP Plastics near you they carry RTV mold material and 2 part polyurethane resin. I believe I paid around $60 for the mold material and resin. Eric

Frederico, I've tried to download the images but when I do the images are bigger than 1/35. What am I doing wrong. Thanks, Eric

Working on Airfix Banshee kit. Trying to figure out what the landing gear and gear bay color is. The only photos I can find is a restored F2H-2P and it shows an interior green color in the gear bay, red interior surface of gear doors and aluminium gear. I thought that all blue Navy aircraft had the same exterior color on the gear and gear bay. Checking some photos of restored F9F Panthers show some with blue gear and gear bays, while others show blue gear and white interiors, white gear and gear bays or aluminium gear and white gear bays. Anyone have any idea what the Banshee should be. Thanks, Eric

Wish someone would do a new 1/72 or 1/48 F2H-2 Banshee. Working thru the Airfix kit, and it needs some help. Eric

Should of made the topic "What I almost got done for the Nationals" Eric

Well, my wife are arriving on Monday and plan to go to Epcot and Universal studio on Tuesday and Wed. The rest of the convention will depend on what we feel like doing. Eric

Don, Actually it's a 1/43 kit of a GT-350R. Only problem is it has a stock mustang interior, so I've got to cut away the resin and phony up the race interior. Eric

Checked the web but have had no luck. Looking for interior photos of a "65 Shelby GT-350R. I need the race version with all the interior removed. I took some photos back in the '90's at a classic car race but can't locate them. Looking for some idea what I need to make a stripped out interior look like and where the roll bar mounted. Thanks, Eric

1/24 Shelby Daytona Coupe I know that someone did one in late '80's and there is a resin kit but those are beyond what I want to spend. Eric

Here's my vote Buffy Ripley Iria from Zeiram the Animation (Anime) The Major from Ghost in the Shell series Eric
