I thought I recognized that fuel pump! Not specifically a "military engine" Thats just a stock Ford 3ton Truck chassis (Canadian) with a Ford V8 Flathead (American). So yes, those colours would most likely have been accurate for that engine...at least until things got dirty. The sparkplug...

Those planes are meticulously maintained and kept in pristine looking condition when flying. Even the retired ones sitting outside in the weather look good! I inspected carefully! (lol yes, I know, its a museum)

It might look a bit out of place with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, since they only made one film "Charade". And that was set in the winter, 1960s France, and featured mostly French marque sedans. The s600 Cabriolet has appeared mainly in Japanese films of the sixties and none with Cary Grant...

I offer a Stage Coach kit...?

Shaking paint introduces air (and bubbles) into paint, thats why it is never recommended with clears. (spray bomb clear has such a small amount of paint in the can and a diffusing nozzle, that shaking isn't a problem) I would think with something as thick as testor's enamels, shaking can easily...

That Bulldozer is an old classic. Have no clue why they dropped the original box art tho. (I guess some people want to see the actual model) Not my thing, I built Hot Rods, but I can remember seeing this kit (w/ old box art) on shelves. Who cares how bad old AMT kits were? They're classics...

Sunward Hobbies https://www.sunwardhobbies.ca/ (a great online supplier of hobby materials) sent me this:

I'm aware the ban discussion relates to Tamiya SPRAY paints, thats why I specifically said "...there was also a large selection of assorted Tamiya spray paints. I saw clears, primers and colours." Related: I checked out the online supplier I use, Sunward Hobbies, who are based here in southern...

First time seeing this discussion and by coincidence, I visited two hobby stores on Tuesday. Stores that I have never been to before. I'm in southern Ontario (Canada). Both stores had extensive selections of Tamiya paints. I even stopped to check the prices of the bottles (in both stores)...

Wow, some nice underpainting! But the green in the last two photos changes drastically. I like the darker green in photo 4 but the lighter green (#5) is not correct. Also, the underside gray did not reach that high on the fuselage. You have it above the wing, when it should align with the wing...

stirred. not shaken.

old thread I know, but... The Glencoe model appears to be the largest plastic model available. It's HO scale and when completed measures 17" x 4" x8" Only way to get something 4' across is to scratch build it. or find a model someone has built and buy it from them? - look to youtube In fact...

This is stunningly good!

I met SuperDave Osborne back in the late 80s at show tapings. (I can actually be seen in the audience of a couple of TV episodes!) He gave me this large metal pinback badge that features a sketch of him as he ended up in one of his old stunt clips*. (*Stunt - Youtube "Super Dave - Balloon Ball")...
