Re: 1/18th MERIT INT. SBD 3 DAUNTLESS FULL BUILD VIDEO

At one time Fine Scale Modellers had stated that JSI was planning on releasing the F14 in kit form. It never happened due to JSI having the issues it had. A real shame, it would have been an awesome model.

It’s really coming along nicely. It’s going to be an outstanding cat. You’ve really honored the plane and it’s legacy.

Re: 1/18 Me163B-1

That is a beautiful model. That would look awesome in anyone’s collection. Quite the talent you have there.

Here is a video of someone who made a real glider version. Pretty ingenious.

Re: Random question on scale

An F-18 is 56ft 1 inch long a Apache Ah-64 is 58.17 feet long with rotors turning. I will have to compare the two models. A very interesting question.

Re: Hobby Boss is releasing a 1:18 Harrier Kit!

Based on what I’ve read it’s a kit that you have to build. It’s supposed to be released soon.
