    That's great things are better for you George! Looking forward to some of them additional projects (F-105 and the A-6)! I've had to set my 1/285 build aside, do to medical issues I've been having. Hoping I can get it started up again soon! Thanks for sharing your hard work and if anyone...

    Really like to see a nice build of the P-61 Black Widow! I think Raiden does one?

    Would be cool to see you do a B-17 George! What an amazing aircraft. Could you imaging 40-50 of them flying overhead in formation, magnificient! Maybe you could toy around with the idea of a B-26 too? Anything you chose to do, would be cool. And I'd have no prob's buying several of each. That...

    Had to clip off the nose cone of the J39....It wasn't looing right and no matter what I did to try to recover, it looked worse. Looks much better now with the new plastic. One of the cool things working with styrene. As I was working on it last night, was thinking about what to try next. With...

    I'm down in Portand...Will be in Tacoma for a photo shoot. I'm a rock and roll photographer, and I'm shooting an 80's prog hard rock band Queensryche. If interested, you can see my work at Jim Corso Photography. You hit the nail on the head...models built for gaming not for display. One of...

    George, Good to hear that there maybe weapons load for the Thud and Intruder. Couldn't imaine scratching building them though. I can see where round stock styrene would come in handy! Hope there is no complaints about modern discussion on a Warbird forum? Been working my project each night...

    Glad to hear I'm headin in the right direction. I've already noticed my nose cone isn't lobg enough. Easy enough fix though.Like the Mig-21MF and who can not like the old Thud! Is the F-105 going to have bombs with it at all?

    Thanks for the tips George, will be VERY HELPFUL for my next build. Here's a shot of what I've done so far. I guess it's not too bad for my first try ever at scratch building. I try to update as I get further into the build. Jim

    Coolt stuff George! Like the flight stands. Would love to see a close up of them. I got my printer and scaled some drawing. I actually got brave and attempted to do a J39 Gripen. Think I bit off more then I could chew with it. I started of ok but, I think I got into too much of a hurry with...

    George, I'm waiting on a new printer...Once it comes in, I'll post some pix of my attempt to model the Mirage F-1. I have the F-8 Crusader and the A-4 Skyhawk. Picked them up off of eBay. Wonderful models...Been waiting for your A-6 Intruder. Hopefully sometime soon.

    Hey George! I be called Jim but answer to most anything! Sorry to hear about your injury. I can totally relate. I have a nasty nerve disorder trying to rob me of my left arm and both feet. I've been collecting 1/285 modern aircraft for several years. Actually have a few of your creations...
