    Thanks for the vid @shazam. Does anyone know what this blue-white sled is from?

    Thank you! I was thinking about using a base as long as the ship itself and using two mounting points, but it's a space ship and it needs to look like it is flying.

    Moving onto replacing the clunky kit stand, here is the hole for it, and the cover plate supplied in the kit. I've already drilled a hole and fed a pipe through it. Another, thinner diameter rod will work as the mounting rod and slips easily into the one to go into the hull. With CA slathered onto the end going inside and pressed to the inner hull, the cover plate was also glued and then fared in. And now Argonaut has her new stand. More to come! Thom

    This pic from the Japan Model Hobby Show looks like it has a few new Yamato kits, some mecha colle kits of the new fighter - and a teaser for the 1/1000 Hyuga!!

    Some really cool looking dios!

    Great idea on that @MechTech!

    Been watching Agatha All Along and really liking it. I thought I wouldn't, but the main character is compelling and the dialogue is pretty snappy.

    I liked it. Sure, there were a few warts*, but overall it was a good season. I really liked Celebrimbor and Sauron squaring off and Galadrial's face off against him too. The slower more dramatic episodes paid off here in seeing Eregian fall. Numernor and the Stranger just seemed to be tossed in unfortunately, though I did like how they gave Galdalf his name in this. Bette than Season 1 by far, and I am looking forward to 3.

    @Cheese3 It is a good looking paint job. But I need to ask, where are the shoulder plates?

    He can say what he wants, but I loved this movie!

    If you could copy what's left of the grid, and put it on decal paper, then you could apply it to the fully cleaned off plastic sheets from the kit.
  13. Thom
    dope!
  14. Thom
    Thank you, I will keep that in mind!
  15. Thom
    Dangy!! Can you find an image on-line of the grid, then print it onto decal film?

    $8.500!!🤯 Oh, 6 installments of $1,400, that sounds better. (yeah, looks like they messed up the decimals, but funny regardless!)

    Awesome save @wm cheng! Looking really good!
  18. Thom
    @MechTech That's a great level of detail being added. @pengbuzz Real good looking prop!
  19. Thom
    That's really cool. Reminds me of the image of the dead Zentradi soldier holding a Min-Mei doll in his hand.
  20. Thom
    It's a cool idea, but I think I'd have to make the blueprint myself!🤯

    Thanks! And I found the new avatar in Pinterest. Something about a woman in an archaic uniform, Or any uniform, really... I got a bit more work done on the Argonaut. The pods are now pinned and glued to the new lower housing. It's not a perfect fit, but some PPP should be able to cover the seams, and I did break a piece off which is why there is a smudge of black paint there that was used to check the new seam. And I repositioned turrets 3 and 4. No3 had to go a smidge to port to be in-line with the front two, and that required filling in the old hole and drilling a new one. There is an inset in the deck which I thought might be a problem, but it turns out it is superfluous as the turret sits at normal deck height anyway, so a disc was cut to fill it in. For no4, it had to go back a little, as it was hitting the additions to the rear of the superstructure upon rotation. The rework can hardly be seen, but I need to clean that up a little, Next up is getting rid of the clunky plastic base in exchange for a metal rod and a wood base. Thom

    @Cheese3 Looking good!

    @pengbuzz That is some great work on that Volton and sword. Well worth the time it took!
  24. Thom
    Questions abound!!

    Oh man... Fare thee well, Rubber Duck. Catch you on the 'flip-flop,' bye-bye...
