We got replacement value insurance from our movers. They've asked us to provide replacment costs for the damaged items, so far the hardest thing has been to find replacements for some furniture including my hobby/computer desk. I think in the end I'll probably have to look at ebay and try to...

Hi everyone. It's been a while since I've been on this forum (not for lack of interest, but lack of time). I had taken a break from modeling when work and personal life got way too busy for any one person. Then in May of this year, I got a job offer I couldn't turn down, so I moved to the US...

Looking good. I have this kit in my stash also, and I have toyed with the idea of getting the resin guns also as I don't think I have the skills I would want to scratch build my own. I've been also holding off building my kit as I'm trying to find some good looking and tasteful nose art for...

Welcome, Nice to see another member here from Saskatoon. My Son, myself and soon my daughter are members also.

I have this kit sitting on my shelf awaiting its turn in the queue. I look forward to following your work to provide inspiration and ideas when I tackle this. The detail work you've done thus far is absolutely amazing. Keep up the fantastic work

I'm a software developer for a company that provides services for Real Estate Professionals.

I built a bench top power supply out of an old pc power supply, and after doing much research, I found that there is a wire in the loom (mine was grey) that is used by the motherboard to send a "Power Good" signal to the power supply that tells the supply to start supplying power through the...

I run a private server for my son and his friends, and I've played it a bit. Haven't really gotten much done in it yet, but have enjoyed my time with my son.

That's awesome. I never would have thought to re-purpose household screen like that.

Very cool looking build. What did you use for the screen material on the Gremlin's windows?

Awesome job, Scott!

My day job is as a software developer, and spend my entire work day staring at source code, hence the name "CodeMaster". The image is the only clear image I could find of the Code Master character from an old TV series, "Reboot"

I just finished making on this weekend for a LED effect. The method I used is an almost completely manual process as I don't have a setup to do photo-etch boards yet. I created my traces with an application called "fritzing" which allowed me to save the output to a mirror image pdf. I washed...

The conversion chart Chris posted can be found here: http://www.scalemodeladdict.com/index.php/topic,4578.0.html. I've used that site for a few years, and found it to be quite good for matching paints from different manufacturers that I can't quickly get here where I live.

Thanks for the warning Astroboy, I'll have to see if my experience is the same. I've completed the wiring for the white landing lights, and have started on the red clearance lights. The clearance lights are not going as well as I had hoped simply because I'm having difficulty drilling a flat...

Thanks for the feedback. I've started working on the landing lights last night, and will provide more photos when I have the remaining circuits for that completed (hopefully by the end of the weekend) Good to know about the maskol, I have a bottle of micro mask, is that the same type of...

I hadn't realized how long it's been since I posted an update to this WIP post. I've been super busy with work and personal life (But who hasn't), and the Falcon has suffered as a result. I've been really working my butt off for the last few weeks on getting some lighting done, and have now...

This is among the best news I could have received today. I thought I had another month (end of March) on the deadline, so this is most welcome. thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!!

You're definitely not alone in this regard. While I don't recall having an entire kit fall off my desk, I have had numerous parts, jars (usually in a non-empty state) fall on the floor (and myself), and I don't think I've made a single model that contains all of the original parts. And while...

Very nice work, derex. I'm also working on a 1:72 FM Falcon build with the extra aftermarket parts. I look forward to seeing your progress on this project. I did bite the bullet and decided to light mine (also the first model I've lit). It's been a fun experience figuring out what I want to...
