Wulf Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 Saw this in my not so LHS and had to get it. This was my "comfort build" after boxing up my last project that gave me fits. It was a fun little kit but was NOT Hase's usual quality and fit. Masking the egg shape camo was a challenge. Nonetheless, I enjoyed it. The wife said it is "cute" Andy
Dick Montgomery Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 Is that like "puppy dog" cute? Machines of War cannot be "cute"! Models of Machines of War cannot be "cute"! At best, we can call it a failed "concept" aircraft that had to spend more time in the wind tunnel.
ghodges Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Naaaahh.....it's just still digesting that Zero that it swallowed whole! Looks great to me and it sounds like you had fun! What more could ya ask for? Thanks for posting! GIL
Dick Montgomery Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Indeed, Gil. The most important result of a modeling project should be "fun". Even the shark is grinning!
dcaponeII Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Indeed, Gil. The most important result of a modeling project should be "fun". Even the shark is grinning! This build really "cracks" me up. Great job on the build.
Mike Lindsey Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Looks good. I grabbed the #7 in the series the other day. (P-51) No such thing as to much fun in our hobby. Mike
Guest Chrgr440RT Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 AAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW., Its jsut so darn CUTE!. You should take it around with you. it might be a chick magnet...kind of like a puppy.
Dick Montgomery Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 How about hanging it from the rear view mirror in the Sport Family Truckster? You could start a new fad and we'd finally be free of the fuzzy dice!
Wulf Posted November 30, 2008 Author Report Posted November 30, 2008 How about hanging it from the rear view mirror in the Sport Family Truckster? You could start a new fad and we'd finally be free of the fuzzy dice! Good idea. However, I was thinking about doing a couple more and make Xmas ornaments out of them. Andy
dcaponeII Posted November 30, 2008 Report Posted November 30, 2008 Xmas Ornaments!! What a fantastic IDEA!!!
StuartMalone Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 I built a DFW T28 in 1/72 a few years ago and showed it to the wife. She thought it was cute too, then said "It even has eyebrows!" I corrected her, saying, "No dear, those are machine guns." I stashed it away so she wouldn't abscond with it. The wife still asks if we can hang it on the tree.....
