    1.1 scale Tie Interceptor

    I just came across yet another TIE Interceptor today. I couldn't afford it, but thought someone out there might be interested. If you have a Hallmark greeting card store near you, all of this past season's collectable Christmas ornaments are 50% off. The store I was in today had several TIE...

    Kaiten Type 1

    @Zathros, born into the culture? Nope. Extremely intelligent? I wish, but not that either! I can read just enough to sound like an idiot if I try to read anything to anyone else. That goes for a number of other languages as well, although I can read a lot more of them than Japanese. Just as an...

    Free F-106A Models

    Thanks to a member on the other forum for noticing this first, another freebie from the Tokyo Solid Model Club. Two ANG F-106A models, here; http://www.ne.jp/asahi/tsmc/net/index.html Click on the sixth button down on the left side. The other models on the page are available just for the...

    1.1 scale Tie Interceptor

    Not quite the same thing, but I did find a video of an R/C version after watching the full-scale model video. Too bad the big one needs so much external support. Then there was the near-full-scale R/C Superman vid I saw today... Scott K.

    Kaiten Type 1

    Thanks for the new Kaiten, Bryan. A sub to scale? You could always plug the links from this thread; http://www.zealotmodels.com/forum/showthread.php?t=142798 into the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive site, and scale that up. It would be rather huge, as you say, though. Anyone know if...

    The Edmund Fitzgerald Project

    Funny you should ask about this one now. I just found the foredeck piece, which went missing on me shortly after my last post. I didn't want to have to reprint one, since I have a different printer now, and nothing ever matches. After the holidays, I'll be clearing a workspace for this one so...

    Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner

    Thanks, all. I have a couple of relatives to this plane in the works as well. More when there's enough to show. Scott K.

    The FRNS Albion

    Thanks, Zathros. I'm glad somebody likes it, I'm getting the usual reaction at the other place. Yes, I've had it since '04. I even have Mike's first version, hand-drawn on graph paper. I'll have to post on the Papermodelers II Google group, and see if The Haggard would be willing to re-release...

    The FRNS Albion

    Mike Haggard's old FRNS Albion prototype. He totally redesigned the ship after this version, but never released it. This one hasn't been available since 2004. I see this ship as an earlier era ship, with the later design from Mike an updated ship, like the Trek TOS ships verses the TNG ones...

    Connecticut

    I'm not sure how to deal with things lately, either. The past few weeks have been terrible, and it's still going on! Chris's wife. My wife's cousin's murder. The inconceivable events in Newtown. And just this morning, the ambush and murder of firefighters in Webster, NY, just 20 minutes from me...

    Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner

    More of John's pictures, many thanks to him! The model would never have looked this good without all his hard work. Scott K.

    Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner

    Nope. I don't have many in progress build pictures, but there are a few. The first ones show the size of the 1/48th scale model on top of our washing machine lid. The finished model in the first picture I posted here was built by my partner in theis design, John Dell. My copy of the model...

    Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner

    Glad you like it, guys. I've had a lot of help with this one, so can't take all the credit. She will be available soon, and is loaded with lots of little easter eggs (you can thank my co-conspirator for those). I do have a C-46 started somewhere. The interface at the nose and tail between...

    Boeing Model 307 Stratoliner

    That post was actually a bit of a joke. Sdk2knbk was me, before "the troubles" got my account deleted. I just wanted to see if there was still interest here. Sorry no posts on it for a while. I haven't gotten much done on the interior yet, but I think you'll like what has been done. Thanks...

    Mass Murder of children in Newtown Ct.

    It's been a terrible week. This horrific news follows the story we were made aware of last night. My wife's 3rd cousin was murdered by her husband Wednseday, shot in the head over a probable case of child abuse by him. Please remember all of the families and victims in your prayers, and...

    Sikorsky X-Wing Prototype

    I think "Thai Fighter" could be a reference to a model by Nobi, too. And to answer your last question, Yes. Scott K.

    Ace Combat Planes and Other Models

    I had to rename the files that wouildn't open. There was a character in the filenames my sytem didn't like. Then they opened with no problem. Scott K.

    After Sandy

    I'm sorry to hear that you've got a large mess and an aggravating gasoline expense to deal with, but glad that you're OK personally. Hang in there, hopefully it won't take your local utility too long to restore service. Scott K.

    After Sandy

    Unfortunately, I just read of a greater misfortune to a fellow modeler on another group. A tree fell on his sister's home, killing her husband and injuring her and their daughter. All our thoughts and prayers to them and anyone else who suffered in this storm. John, are you OK out there? We're...
