Hi Guys, just wondering if i could fit the Meng Models Nochri Dalet Mine roller system to this kit,as i have pics of them fitted, and as Meng is the only one to sell the Mine roller seperatly, just wondered how hard it would be. Any help would be much appreciated. Dave

Hi Sean, i have this kit, and started to build it,and like others on here im not impressed,its now residing in the box, while i decide weather to carry on or bin it. I must say you are makeing a really good job of it, so maybe later i will have another go.

Thanks Jabba.

Hi Guys, can anyone tell me what the correct colour is for the seats in the Lynx, it looks like orange but im not sure, any advice would be gratefully recieved.

Any news on a release date here in the uk.

Hi Guys, just a quick question, i have read that the rivets on the hobbyboss wings and elevons are wrong, i have been trying to find decent pics of the wing upper surface but have drawn a blank. So i was wondering if anyone on here can help with any info or pics, it seems a simple job to fill them but would like to be certain. Any help or advice would be most welcome. Dave

Very nice, did you have any problems fitting the cab to the bumper, on mine i had a real problem with the two hook arrangement they use, snapped off several times, also the rocket assembly is tricky if you dont get it just right they wont fit. looking good. IM currently about to start the MENG version so we will see how it goes.

Hi Guys, im nearly at the varnish stge with this one but am not sure which satin varnish to use, i have used MR Hobby super metallics for the first time and dont want to ruin the finish,any help would be much appreciated.

I have this one on the bench,ready to start, if it turns out half as good i wll be well pleased , great work here,super paint job, did you have any problems with the masking as i have read that most metallics dont like masking tape and tend to pull off. Dave

Hi Guys, just wondering if anyone has used these paints and id so are they any good,also what ratio would you thin them,im just about to start an Eduard Mig 21, and have not done a complete airframe, i have been using Alclad for my metallics with an extracter, but still get a residual smell,so would dearly like to use something that is a lot more user freindly. Dave

Hi Guys a couple of pics of the cab interiors, even if i leave the doors and windows open not a lot will be seen, so i will just have a couple of doors open,and hope for the best Hope you enjoy, Dave

Hi Everyone long time since i posted on here so i thought i would share a few pics of my latest build, its the Meng kit absolute joy to build with no fit issues, Hope you enjoy. Dave

Many thanks to all for the help and advice,im sure i will be okay. Dave

Hi Mike, just a quick query, ihave this kit on its way but i gather they dont supply seat belts or insrument decals, i guess Eduard will take care of the instruments, but i have two sets of Eduard late seats for the Mig 29 and am wondering if they would be okay to use in place of the kit ones. Also with the Akan paints did you order them as a set, as the Coastal craft web site seems to only sell them as sets. Hope you dont mind these questions, as after looking at you build i like to try and replicate some of your attention to detail, many thanks for the build blog its a great help. Dave

Many thanks Guys, that will be one of my first buys at Telford. Great pics Magman really gives inspiration. Dave

Hi Everyone, i have this kit to build, but would like to mount it on a Modern Russian Truck, but im not sure which one, i have seen this in Magmans post in modern Russian images but cant find the truck in any model form, any help would be much appreciated. Dave

Hi Guys just thought I would post a few pics of my WIP still have the tracks to add and weathering to do, the inside is fully painted but even with all the hatches open so little can be seen that I decided to close them up .

Many thanks Magman, problem solved. Dave

Hi Everyone, just started to build this kit,but have found that there are no colour callouts for anything except the camo finishes, so does anyone know what colours are used on the interior,especially the seats. any help or pics would be very welcome. Dave

Hi Guys, just a quick question,i have the Meng Azcharit late version, and also the desert eagle book, but I need to know have these got the anti-slip coating, as its not really clear in the book looks as if some have and some haven't, any help would be much appreciated. Dave

Hi Guys, anyone know of a uk stockist of theses sets, I used to get mine from White Ensign Models, but they are no longer here. Dave

Many thanks Ian, that has solved the problem. Dave

Hi Guys, just resurrected this from the loft insulation, but upon inspection I appear to have lost the instructions. I have the 3D BAZ to do so can follow the build instructions, but as the 3Dcame with separate track links I need to know how many per side,so was hopeing someone could help me out either by pointing me to a build blog or a breakdown of the links. Any help would be much appreciated. Dave

Many thanks guys problem solved. Dave

Hi Guys with all the bikes I have built I have never had a problem carbon fibreing the hugger, but this one is a real pain, so does anyone have an idea of how I should go about it, should I split it up into sections or try for the one piece method. Any help will be gratefully received. Dave
