David Duckett | 13-Feb-08 20:50 | Perhaps this is the one. I was shocked to see it as a "buy it now" for $50. I love Berkeley kits and remember building at least three of them when I was a teenager, some 50 years ago. I had a part time job in a store that sold models and I usually took my pay in kits. I really like your Dornier and will definitely add it to my hanger, too. |
jerry campbell | 13-Feb-08 23:30 | Thanks for the kind words about my Dornier, but it is the model I am the least happy with. I did a bad job of papering and finishing. One problem I had was with Testors Dullcoat, I could not get it to Dull to a dead flat over Tamiya acrylic, as it has in the past. I kept gettin a semi-gloss finish. I tried three different cans, one of which I went out and bought that afternoon. Never had this problem before. I hope I can solve it in the finish of the Diels P-40B |
