Small Scale Military Headquarters

======================================================================================================================== Moderator's note: This is a fun old thread I stumbled on and thought i'd bring up. Lots of optimism still, even in 2015. aferguson ================================================...

I also forgot to add to my list the floats to make a Zero into a Rufe and the TA-152.

I thought about making an add on kit for the 152 but it actually became easier to just make the whole plane.

I'm with you Jnewboy, been draggin their heels way to long on this Iconic Luftwaffe Eagle

Dont bother with it now, After my video is done someone will make one just as good or better and for maybe even less money.

Thanks! Your last project came out great!!

Welcome back Jon You have any plans for Armour? No armor at this time, once you see the video you will understand why. It is not impossible but to do it will take a considerable bit more work. It may be done though in the future. I have always wanted some armor that will likely never be made. I kno...

You will get one my friend! Its a cool jet and not just something found on a drawing board, it was close to having the first prototype built and the glider versions had all had great test results. Here is one that we captured. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d4/Akaflieg_DM_1.j...

Hmmmmm.... I am interested as well . Others have said that I have a little skill in building , I wonder what I could do with your newly developed Wonder Weapon . Yes my friend, you will love this and I expect you may fill your pockets and your collection using this process. The thing is guys, it is...

Im sorry I have been MIA for so long. I have slowly let the "real world" suck me in and for that I am sorry. I am back! and determined to make 2016 the best year yet for Jnewboy Customs and 1/18 scale. I have lots of work to do to climb out of the hole I am in but I have started getting up at 5am an...

Still waiting for my kits, any updates????

No idea why the Focke Wulf 190 didn't sell back in the day ? And to be honest, don't think it had aything to do with it being a Dora version. In my opinion, the Dora looks better than the A model, and has better lines, with a more powerful/ faster look to it. My opinion. I personally think it had t...

You fellas are spot on! the ironic thing is Merit may think Im trying to bash them but in reality I really do want to see it produced! I will buy one or more where as some others that may be quick to criticize me wont. At least Hitler has not given up on his Fw-190! I know what you are saying T-man,...

You guys are great!!

There is always the occasional stick in the mud but for the most part this forum has some of the best guys you will find anywhere!! Thanks to all of you for keeping this hobby in the sky!

There's a long-time employee at my local Hobbytown USA store who deals regularly with Merit and apparently knows the president of the company. I heard from him (third-hand) that the FW-190 is due either later this year or early next year. Again, what I have may be only considered scuttlebutt at thi...

Put me down for one kit, how much do I owe you with shipping? thanks! It looks good!

Hi, I need a few of these:



Any of these type outfits, does not have to be exactly this one, the winter one or the other versions is fine.

Im looking for loose ones I can repaint, gear is not needed. Thanks Guys!

looks great!!

Dont forget the wing bulges for the oversized tires on the G-6, or are you going to do this on BBi's and keep it a G-2?

The BBi version is a much better 109 than the 21st. The wing thickness is not that off, they did have to fit a real tire in there after all.

Thanks!

For anyone who is intrested I lowered the price and relisted this Jagdtiger.

Well it has been 12-13 weeks since my accident. The bones have totally healed . But I have ligament damage . The bones in my hand feel like marbles rolling around. The last project that went out processes , mixing resin and the pulling apart of molds really did a number on me . I am going to the do...

As said above, the video is very good and illustrates several effective and relatively easy weathering/finishing techniques. Your gel reminds me of Testors CreateFX line in its thickness but seems to work a little better. My only issue is this: If the tank was rushed out unfinished from the assembl...

Thanks Paul,

Now everyone can see what actually goes into a project like this.

you should make the munitions carrier for Loki, .... and Loki
