You are public property Matt! Cool huh? :) Speaking of Ebay.... There's a Contrail Staaken that looks like it might sell for under $100. It's currently at $87. There's a switch. Haven't they been going for upwards of $200? I wouldn't mind having one myself, but that's AWFULLY expensive for a vac. Later!

I think the easiest way is with small beads of body putty or CA, smoothed onto the fuselage side. These can be carefully enhanced with highlight/shadow painted effects. Subtlety should be the goal, and any catastrophe can be sanded away. Paul Howard ought to be addressing this problem, now that the DH2 seat is finished.

I have the Koster Hannover. No, I'm not willing to part with it - when you see one, you'll understand. When I was sitting talking to him at the Nats, I pointed out the differences between his kit and Eduard's: namely that Koster gives you all of the accessories that Eduard doesn't. Try GreatModels Webstore. They carry Koster. If not there, then he has indeed moved. Koster Aero Enterprises 610 Euclid Ct. Highland Pk, IL 60035 I am reading the address off of the insert from the big-ass FW-200 Condor that I bought at the Nats.

Where they are able to pump out decent-quality kits, they neglect alot - something that BK does not do. THe Hannover is a good point. Grenades, grenade racks, etc in white metal along with just as nice an interior in vac as you get from Eduard's tab and fold method. He told me too that the OT stuff was jumped on by Eduard as soon as it came out. He seemed pleased to know that some of us could tell the difference in quality. For those of you who want to try vac, I have but one word: Koster.
