I've got several geriatric kits in my stash that I plan to build. Oldest is the Aurora Sealab III. There's a reissue of that supposedly in the works, so its value would drop soon anyway.

Maybe this? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/toggl-track-hours-time-log/id1291898086 There's also some "You might also like" links at the bottom for similar apps. Disclaimer: I have no experience with any of these apps, and I don't use Apple products.

There's a really good web reference on this kit at https://www.projectrho.com/SSC/model.html. It includes some history, buildups, and quite a few kitbashes based on it. I particularly like the kitbash using the engine pods from Fireball XL-5.

Look for the odorless version. Mineral spirits (aka white spirit or mineral turpentine) have a characteristic unpleasant kerosene-like odor. Odorless mineral spirits have been further refined to remove the more toxic aromatic compounds, and is recommended for applications such as oil painting...

Update on my plans to build an airbrush station in my garage. There's a high-CFM, explosion-proof fan behind the filter that exhausts to the outside. The side panels are removable and whole thing folds up flat against the wall when not needed. Not that I've not needed it since it was built...

Many years ago, I built an Italeri kit of the -22 as a possible future Blue Angels aircraft. I even added a tailhook. Sadly, the Navy never adopted the Raptor.

Ditto. That was a crossover year for the 'vette. Last model to have the flat rear end, first with the streamlined rubber front end. Mine was white with red interior.

No thoughts or comments? I thought sure *someone* from the tanker community would put in their 2 cents.

Hi, all. I'm looking for some ideas to expand my collection of 1:72 US tanks. I'm trying to depict the major milestones in US tank development, not every variant. I currently have: -British Mark 1 'Male' (Placeholder for Mark VIII) -M3/M5 Stuart Light Tank -M3 Lee/Grant -M4 Sherman -M24...

Every time someone abbreviates isopropyl alcohol as IPA I think they're talking about beer...

I don't think MM Acryl thinner is compatible with Tamiya acrylic paints. MM was a water-based acrylic and Tamiya is alcohol-based. I'd stick with the Tamiya X20A thinner for Tamiya paints.

Assuming you're talking about the acrylic and not the enamel... I just bought a bottle from Scale Hobbyist. Both the 10ml and 23ml sizes are currently in stock. https://www.scalehobbyist.com/catagories/Paint_and_Construction/xf-59-desert-yellow/TAM00081359/product.php?kw=xf-59

Maybe instead of a mechanical solution, you could use a tiny video screen to play a video clip of a working radar? The folks at TinyCircuits have a small screen (20.1 mm x 13.4 mm) for $60. It even has a speaker. https://tinycircuits.com/products/tiny-video-player-kit

We have a joke in our house whenever something has "gone walkabout" like that: "You must have put it someplace safe." Sometimes that means it's safe from being found!

I built that kit (and the Pz IV) when I was a teen, back in the late-60s/early-70s. Nice kit. I remember I used the battle-damaged side armor option. I may have some photos around here somewhere.
