Thanks, Eric. I've been in contact with Paul. Now I'm trying to identify IPMS members in the Lansing area who interested.

Are there people in the general area of Lansing, MI, who would be interested in starting an IPMS chapter? Please let me know. Our closest chapters are at least an hour away in any direction, and I'd love to be able to meet and work with folks around here. Thanks.

I'm about to exhaust a bottle of Metalizer Metalic Blue, which has been great for the translucent blue of interior surfaces of Japanese aircraft. I can't find a replacement. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Thanks, gentlemen. I appreciate the assistance.

Can anyone provide insights into the plumbing? I see lots of variations in online search. Thanks.

I managed to ruin the top of port wing, part #12B, of kit #2670, Re.2002 Ariete. Does anyone have one in their spares box they'd be willing to part with?

Thanks for the info and the comments, Gil. Yes, I believe the bottles will be visible in the cockpit when complete. And I appreciate your words of caution. I wasn't really thinking about judges, but was simply trying to be as authentic/accurate as I can. So as I was putting this together, I suddenly realized I didn't have any idea what I was working with. This will be helpful.

Does anyone know the color of oxygen bottles in Italian WWII fighters? Thanks.

I'm working on a Hasegawa Ki 84-I. The instructions call for this color for the prop. Can someone suggest a Tamiya or ModelMaster alternative?

I've started an Il-2 and the research I've done refers to an upper three-color camouflage pattern, but the only images I can find are profiles. Can someone provide me an illustration of a top view? Thanks.

Hi, Scott. I was just browsing through the forum when I stumbled on your entry, so I'm coming late to the discussion. I'm surprised no one mentioned HobbyLinc.com. I tend to alternate between Squadron and them. I like HobbyLinc because they have a great search engine for their inventory, have very good prices, have a customer loyalty program, excellent order tracking, and ship quickly. I don't remember how I stumbled on them, but I really like them; often they have things that aren't in stock at Squadron. I highly recommend them.
