I need something to stay focused on while I build the HobbyCraft CF-18. This will help keep
my sanity and give me a break from the more "troublesome" build. The only thing I need to do
is get after market decals for a camouflaged Vietnam plane.- John

Can't have too many zippers. Good one.

Thanks, I need a break and this was my second choice, my F-4M Phantom is missing a canopy so
I figured this was a better choice. I also want to do it in NMF as the first Vietnam Starfighters were.- John

I was notified 2 days ago the kit was shipped. I entered the tracking number and it is a number given to
the sender but the kit has NOT made it to the post office yet! How can it be shipped? That's just a preliminary
tracking number!- John

Been that way before myself. The shipping said it was still in the US but I had already received it in Canada

Another Starfighter, Love it!

If Its USPS tracking, don't believe it until you see it on your doorstep

Finally arrived. The kit is still sealed as are the decals. It does have decals for a Vietnam plane but
is in camo, I currently have 2 Vietnam camo planes WIP and really don't want a third, lotsa work I
don't need right now. So I will wash up the plastic and start detail painting the cockpit tonight and
order Caracal decals for a NMF Vietnam plane from 1965.- John

Awaiting the start....

 

[Wayne Little]

Bring it on

 

[vandee]

Off to a slow start but at start at least. I always hated waiting for paint to dry, that
was the plus side of acrylics.- John

 

[fubar57]

Good start
