  1. @Kurt Oh wow, man that look amazing. LOVE the mud and weathering all over!
  2. QFT! The hype around Episode One was SO REAL back in 98/99! I must have watched that trailer 100 times before I went and saw the movie. Was it great? No. Was I INSTANTLY 10 years old again and felt like I did when I saw ROTJ on the big screen in 83 when Darth Maul lit up his double blade??? YES! You can't put a price on that. I'll go see the re-release, just for fun, which is what Star Wars SHOULD always be, and the prequels were, even with all the bad visuals and wooden acting and mostly bad dialog up until ROTS, which WERE GROUND BREAKING at the time and let's not forget, Episode II ushered in the age of shooting on digital and not film.
  3. I'm in for a Fire Valk HM-R! I'm not in the M7 haters group. It's silly fun.
  4. Can't wait to see this finished up!!!
  5. Never met anyone, younger than me (48) or even older than me, (my dad LOVED the 89 Batman, RIP), that didn't like that movie. It's just one of the all time greats no matter your age. Yes, I do love the first two Nolan movies as well, but 89 Batman is just more "fun".
  6. Academy 1/72 Superhornet UPDATE.. Finally! .... Aftermarket resin pilots are painted, decaled up with some leftover micro decals from other kits for helmet markings and in the plane with no trimming required!. First Flory's grime wash is down and drying.... Stay tuned!
  7. DAMN, those two look GOOD! Wish I had the room..
  8. Thank you @wm cheng. It's just little scrap pieces of foam from my work. Extra "plucking foam" from Pelican cases. We have quite a bit of it lying around.
  9. Primary painting done on the Superhornet. It's hard to tell in the pics but the blotchy under pattern juuuust shows through. Took my time to try to get it juuuust right. The resin after market pilots literally dropped in like they were made for the model! No chopping of feet, legs or butts! 😁 I got them painted up pretty good for 1/72. Pretty happy with this build so far.... BUT.... the now DREADED Academy decals are coming up.... Uhhhgggg..... Which is sad because decaling is usually really fun for me. We shall see...
