Re: 1/18 A4E Skyhawk 2019
Like the idea that this will be fibreglass, a bit more stable than resin and a lot more lighter. This has piqued my interest in the Skyhawk. Personally keeping it simple without a deluge of moving parts is probably the way to go. If the F-4 turns out to be fibreglass too then again would be interest...

1/18 Harrier kit- Trumpeter - merit mold Jan 18
Looks like the Harrier will be released as a kit in Jan by Hobbyboss/Trumpeter. Box art shows a gun pack and a few additional pods.

Maybe Trump/HB could release the F-14 as a kit....

Re: Where is everyone?
Still here but don't visit as often since the demise of 21st Century and the lack of new releases. I really had my hopes pinned on an 1/18th F-4 whether from Admiral or 21st. Also the Skyraider...what a missed opportunity but understand why it never came to fruition. I still have a sizeable collecti...

Re: Meritt/JSI Harrier
Just to ask, did somebody mention an accessory armament pack to be made available separately for the Harrier? Wondering if it would include a belly gunpod and additional laser guided bombs, litening pod etc.. Or perhaps I just imagined I heard this one...

Re: REVIEW OF THE 1/18 scale Harrier AV-8B
I had heard several years ago from a reliable source that a harrier was coming out but given the time that has passed I never believed it. Just is strange that after all of the hype and suspense it appears a simple functioning and rather crucial aspect such as sliding canopy (if i interpreted this o...

Re: COMIC CON 2014
Hoping to see photos of the Harrier all painted up soon. Speaking of photos did anyone take any of the bottom of the aircraft or that of the landing gears extended out? That would be nice to see. I (finally) got my story finished, has photos of the underside/wheels/etc. Also estimated price, releas...

Fightertown decals are very high quality with a tight film backing, I use them on smaller scales without silvering if you have a good glosscoat- they look painted on. I'm about to order the Cat S**tch Fever from them directly as I usually order locally here in the UK. Look forward to further decals ...

The rumor has always been Trumpter was in a deal with Admiral on the Dauntless. My late Dad told me this years ago, and he was a award winning modeler and went to all the shows, plus he had over 10,000 hours volunteering at the pensacola naval air station in the reserach department. If any body has...

Not sure how far its true, but according to this long standing seller in Germany - the next paint scheme for the F-14 looks like an Iranian cat. http://www.warbirdmodelle.de/ Look at coming soon 'Preview' or under 'Vorschau'.

Hey TKO I'm going to repaint the F-14 as soon as mine lands here in the UK thanks to Isaiah of MTS. Just wanted to tap into your expertise if I may- what Tamiya grey did you use XF??

Likelihood is that the paint used on the plane will be acrylic based- any acid will eat through and ruin the finish further. I'm not sure how this aircraft has been finished- however the shade looks like US modern light gull gray. Testors, xtracolour, lifecolor, vellajo all do a version that can be ...
