What I hate about 1/18

Post by Coreyeagle48 » Sat Sep 03, 2011 4:54 pm

Greetings:

Well repurchased a new in the box Spitfire because I missed mine so much and now I remember what I hate so much about 1/18.

The left wing of this aircraft looks like a 5 year old painted it as part of an art class lesson. And the brown paint the great 21st used doesn't even match the color of the brown used on the entire aircraft. Also part of the landing gear on this wing is missing, so it doesn't lock properly. It gingerly stays up but doesn't lock the way it should.

So I am looking for an NKK left wing for a Spitfire. How I miss my old Spitfire which was in perfect shape and had a perfect paint job!

... or you could just get rid of that piece of crap you bought and sell it to me. It's probably not worth much, huh? :lol:

Hey it's a mess dude

If you want it for a custom or something send a PM. I highly doubt I will find the wing and if you can do something with it, all the power to you.

Disgusted is an understatement.
