Hello friends, I just started this Tamiya kit, and the kit is fantastic. Here is a few pictures from some first steps. This is my first model kit of civilian vehicle.The biggest experience I have making models of aircrafts,so I have put my self to try how will it go with this models.

Thank you very much.

Thank you dear friend.

Hello friends, Here is my latest build,as a "MOJO" project. It is Monogram F-15A 1/48, mold dates back from 1979. We all know how kit is, I have finished this model for two weeks,and it realy looks nice to me. All comments are welcome.Thanks for watching.

thank you kind sir.

Hello, I have buyed my self a jewl (from first sight), one of my ever wanted model kit,an English Electric Lightning T.5 made by Sword in 1/48 scale. This model kit: Model kit is multimedia pack,and I want to make this model kit as much realistic is posible. Also there is many reviews of this kit,but no one is telling anything about how it is to build it. I am 100% sure that someone from you friends have already made this model kit. So please share some expirience of it, and where to look some of specific reference materials. Thank you in advance. All the best and happy modeling.

Dear collegue,thank you, this helps.

Dear freinds, I have searched all reference materials that are available to me, and I can not find any photo from the oposite side of this aircraft,"Dede Lou". So, I changed my mind and I need to make another one. There is interesting paint scheme, also in the same box of this model kit,it is: P-51D-25, 44-73623 flown by Maj. Harry C. Crim (later flown by Flt.Off. Theo Gruici), CO of 531st FS, 21st FG, 7th AF, Iwo Jima, July/August 1945. This color profile: I wonder, does anybody know anything about this aircraft, does it also had artwork only on the left side of the aircraft? On the nose and on the cover of wheel bay? I have found photos of this aircraft, only of the left side...not a single photo of the right side. So, if someone knows anything about this paint scheme, or he have photo of this aircraft from the right side off the fuselage, please be kind, and share it with me, so that I can make my model kit correct. Thanks in advance.

Ok,what is the story about "Dede Lou" aircraft,have anybody find something about it,main quest is: Does it have "Dede Lou" artistic writings on both sides of the airplane?Color profile says that it had on both side,anybody knows something about it?

You are right...but I just hate those manufactures teasings for paint schemes.I just hate when they present color profiles like that...how do they know those things,was they there? I just dont understand.I need to find some clue for this aircraft.

Yes sir,this photos are early variant of "Stinger VII",and on those photos there is no green color on cover of wheel bay. Here is photo in late variant: And here is profile of Eduard how they present this late variant: Eduard is showing that covers of main wheel bay should be painted in green color,also pylons for HVAR in same green.I think that this is wrong. So,I am in quest to find "Stinger VII" or any other aircraft from the same squadron that had applied late paint scheme,and to see was there green color on covers of wheel bay doors?I am 100% sure that ground crew didnt painted pylons for HVAR...it was never done.SO I wonder was it the same situation with doors of wheel bay?The so called "late" paint scheme for this aircrafts was simple,and that was the purpose of it,not to comlicate things. Also I dont like when model kit producers tell us to :NOTE THE GREEN PAINTED UNDERCARRIAGE DOORS... Why they say this and there is not a single picture of this aircraft with green undercarriage doors and pylons for HVAR.What is going on here...I understand artistic freedom,but this should be as much posible presentation of real aircraft...

Does anybody know did really "Stinger VII" in late paint scheme had green color on doors of wheel bay like Eduard have shown? Maybe any photo of other aircrafts which had same paint scheme which was together in his F.G. and then when his aircraft get this late variant of paint scheme,it should look like all others aircrafts from the same F.G. On this photo it is cleary visible that there is other aircraft in same colors,but gear door can not be visible...Anybody knows anything about this situation?

Thank you gentleman. So I am 100% sure that "Stinger VII" had cross tread pattern,so I will go with this paint scheme. I have check references which Mr.Jure have told me,and I can not find picture of "Stinger VII" in late paint scheme where it is visible that wheel bay doors are painted in green,the upper section closer to wing,like Eduard have made in it's profile. Little help about those main gear doors...please... 🙂
