Sure looks like a re-release of the old 1/72 kit to me Rob Iwata Padawan _____ From: space-modelers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:space-modelers@yahoogroups.com] ...
Sorry I check on Paul Fjeld's coating page it is 5 mil kapton and not 0.5 mil and indeed 5 mil is quite stiff. Exterior of Quad 4 is covered with 2 mil kapton...
Ah. In other words, proper prior planning. Since there was none of that, I'll have to improvise. Thanks to all who answered. ... -- -- Dale G Elhardt Cypress...
The seller contacted me and i spoke to them on the phone. They said they were very sorry and would take the model back or let me keep it and refund an amount I...
I'm very glad you got a good result. I bought some software recently that turned out to be circumventing DRM and much to my surprise, I got a refund. I've...
Prior planning desired (I use a standard hole punch to put 1/4 inch holes in the interior formers [paper models], then plant a 1/4 dowel in a block of wood and...
As promised I'm going to start putting together an Ebook on the model building techniques I've learned and developed over the last 20 years. I wanted to...
I've been trying to figure out how to do the Saturn V model in 1/48th scale that most builders could afford, but would also be something that could be a...
The picture on the site is indeed an image of the Revell (pre-Monogram merger) kit, so I would guess that is the plan. There are some rumors that Revell USA...
One option is to drill a hole in the underside of the modelĀ (whether that be through an engine bell or up through an aft bulkhead that is somewhat larger than...
Mr. Meens and Mr Smith... I have had more joy following along with your 1/24 LM and 1/12 Mercury builds than any other threads ever. They are both magnificent...
John, I would love a 1/48 but I suppose 1/72 is a good fall back. I do not have the skill for what you are suggesting, but I sure hope you can find the people...
Drew, Thank you for this email, which means much. If my stuff inspires others as much as the work of other people inspire me, then that's what it is all about!...
After my last flight, I think I know what happened. While waiting for a connecting flight in Chicago, I saw a tug pulling a container full of boxes. Unknown to...
Thanks a lot for your appreciation Drew. It is always satisfying to see that the work we do is appreciated around the world. Modelling is somehow a lonely job...
Hello everyone, Another 10 kits are ready and waiting for those who wish to make the purchase now. We will have another 10 in about 2 weeks. The kit is priced...
'Reminds me of the time I tried, over and over, to get an "Everything is Go!" kit from eBay. Every time, I would be outbid with only seconds to go. Obviously,...
Le Anne: That's definitely a bummer. I suspect there are quite a few on this list who have lost out on bidding on a "need to have" kit on eBay! At least in...
I would want a 1/48th scale Saturn V, so I won't be participating in a 1/72 build. My project is stalled at the gate because I can't find 8.25" diameter...
Does anyone know of a commercially available model of the Zenit rocket? I would like 1/72 scale but would settle for 1/144. I would rather not build a paper...
Lee Anne, E-mail me off board as I have an extra one if you are interested. Steve Sliger Greenwell Springs, LA sandy55961AT aolDOTcom (Just replace the words...
I don't know how interested folks might be, but my IAAA colleague Erik Viktor is selling off some spacecraft/launcher models in the notice below. Rick...
Hi Dale! As was mentioned in a couple of emails, I had written a two part article on the AMT MIS kit and Hasegawa shuttle. I was away on an extended business...
Hi Everyone, I have been trying for quite a while now to find a complete unopened Revell Redstone Booster/Mercury Capsule Model, Revell No. H1832. I am just...
