Granted, it's the Russian clone, used during the RCW, but it's still an "FT-17". ;-) It's everything that G already wrote about. Holy cow! A ton of teenie tiny parts. And to think that the model will probably be less than two inches long. This is quite amazing! The entire running gear consists of separate parts. It's boggling. Definitely will need to take your time with this one, and maybe even cut the parts within a plastic bag so nothing shoots across the room. Next time someone disses 1/72nd scale, you will be tied down and forced to build one of the RPM FT-17s. For those with "fat fingers", it will be a trick to finish. ;-) And to think that Mirage has announced their FT-17s will come with a full interior!!

Say, 1 Future to 3 paint? I haven't, but you can bet I will. There are really two times to re-coat, within the hour and the next day. If it's within the hour, work fast so you don't start picking up undercoat. 2 coats in a night, say, or one each day kind of thing. Thanks, makes sense. A grey or toned primer may also help you if you're getting a lot of show-thru. I usually spray with gray "auto-primer" before starting. Is there a reason you are needing to do this? Am curious. Both the Noops sound like they are CDL all the way. With some red? You would think. The 1/72 N.16 is CDL "all the way". The N.11 will be representing a scheme with CDL undersurfaces, with green and "khaki" (remember that thread?) camo on the upper. Also, your comments about the olive and green pigments now come into play. Thanks for your help Ken. (From Diego) Have you tried another acrilic brand John? Well D... For convenience, I use what's available at the local hobby store...MM, Tamiya, and Polly. I understand though that Tamiya doesn't mix with Future....(?) (From Neil) I think you should convert to enamels, the only reason I can think of for using acrylics is to avoid the smell when spraying. So there! Well, you're correct, and that's part of the problem. My family, not me, is extremely allergic to the fumes of paint, adhesives, dope, real Christmas trees, log fires in the fireplace, etc... (time for a new family). So I switched to acrylics to avoid the fumes from not only the paint, but the clean up solvents.

Sometimes the Waldron punches loose their edge a bit. If you try to punch very thin material (eg .002 brass sheet), the cut is incomplete, and one has to reach into the die hole and drag it out. Here's a reasonable solution: I stuck masking tape to the underside of the brass sheet. This resulted in pretty clean punches. An additional side benefit of the masking tape: - on the follow-through, the punch usually hammers the punch-out against the cutting Mat or whatever you use under the die. The masking tape acts as a padding and reduces the marring on the punch-out.
