Revell/Zvezda 747-8 engines
GRIM REAPER replied to Abandoned Project's topic in Modern - 1969 and onwards
Zvezda's are a lot easier to build. That's for sure! -
Very nice build! One of my all time favorite aircraft!
-
Newer F-35s' don't have the ram panels painted. So, yours actually looks quite accurate. You did a stunning job! Looks really good in flight!
-
Looks very nice indeed! Although, I'm going to wait for the G model to come out as that is my favorite variant of the Phantom.

Does anyone know what retailers will carry this kit? Really looking foward to getting one of these!

Zvezda 777-300ER questions
GRIM REAPER replied to Abandoned Project's topic in Modern - 1969 and onwards
Take care with the bottom wing seams running the length of the wing. Mine kept popping open for some reason. Other than that, the kit is an absolute joy to build! -
Wish I had known that before I cut mine off.....oh well.

To be honest, I have been dealing with severe depression for a looong time now. To have a friend to text you completely out of the blue and say they are lucky to be your friend lifted me to above cloud nine. Completely made my day. Whatever problems you have, just know you have people that care.

1/48 AMK MiG-31BM/BSM Foxhound
GRIM REAPER replied to StyrenePilot1970's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Stunning build! -
With some refinements, that XP-54 would make a pretty cool air racer! I think I'll get one and do just that.
-
I haven't really thought about doing a work in progress for this build. Mainly because I build slow and my free time is almost nonexistent. But, I may consider starting a thread if I get far enough along that I can show some meaningful progress.

Awesome model! I'm currently building the Revell A380 in the proposed freighter version that was canceled in FedEx colors. I have been looking for a good match for the purple as it seems it isn't really purple. It looks like it has a blueish tint to it. I would like to build an MD11, but the Eastern Express kit kind of scares me off from building one. You have done a great job!
-
For the troubles you had, you sure did an awesome job! Well done!

RC-135 Airseeker/Rivet Joint (1/72 scale)
GRIM REAPER replied to Rob Probert's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
I have built two of them. What I did to the wings was I epoxied two brass rods along the entire length of the wings. It helped stiffen up the wing pretty good. I also glued the two bottom halves together, then the top to try and reduce the bottom seam on the wing as much as possible.- 39 replies

Lufthansa New Livery Airbus A380-800, Revell 1:144
GRIM REAPER replied to neilg's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
I had the same problem with mine as well. Although, mine isn't that bad. If you squint hard enough, you can see the warp. I'm going to leave mine as is. -
Lufthansa New Livery Airbus A380-800, Revell 1:144
GRIM REAPER replied to neilg's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Nice start! I'm building one myself. Although, I'm converting mine into the proposed freighter version that was canceled in FedEx colors. -
Invader Ahoy! ICM B-26B-15 1/48
GRIM REAPER replied to AaronKSJ's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Just a heads up. The engine nacelles are tricky. I had a huge gap and a decent step to deal with. Ultimately, that's what stalled my build. However, the wings go together wonderfully! -
1/32 Trumpeter Intruder, KA-6D Conversion.
GRIM REAPER replied to Wafu's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Awesome! Makes me want to break mine out and start working on it! -
Well, yeah I read it. If you look at the scale in the catalog, it says 1/48. That's why I was asking. Nothing more. Just asking for clarification. Over and out.

looking for a gloss enamel varnish for use in an airbrush
GRIM REAPER replied to willsm's topic in Airbrushes
Just beware, if you go with the gunze gx100, you have to thin it a lot. Something like 80% thinner to 20% clear. That stuff is almost like molasses. -
I've been wondering about this myself.
