All,

I was reading the Academy 1/32 F/A-18D kit review on ipms.org and the
cockpit looked amazing.  I was wondering if there are any internet
resources that will describe how to achieve that sort of quality in
workmanship.

I realize that a large part comes with experience--so I won't get into
that.  Experience counts.  However, I am looking for a step by step,
i.e. a) Grab seat with tweezers,  b) Apply paint to seat belt with #0
brush c) Let it dry...etc etc etc.

Any advice/help will be appreciated.

Regards,

H

I thought that I'd like to see the review, so I typed "ipms.org" into the
address bar. I arrived at the homepage of the Iowa Podiatric Medical
Society!  :-)

Not to worry... I've found it now...

Something similar happened to me when I tried to find the website for the
Marlon Brando Lookalike Association...

Try googling 'Edgar Maas' sometime.  You get anything except the author.
Apparently the FBI has some EDGAR program and everyone has an article
about it.

I 'think' he's an historical novelist.  That's based on the one book of
his I've read.

Hmm, Bauhaus, Kreuzen, (Einstürzende) Neubauten (?)
These names sound rather GERMAN to my ears. Are you sure they're
Dutch.
Most popular Dutch Gothic band here (the Netherlands) is "Within
Temptation" But as it is not my kinda music I could be wrong.

Cheers, Dennis

That's the group.  Sounded good on the short clip on DW TV but I don't
know any tune titles.

Try these; they're good:

BTW - if you plan on building your A-D Hornet with the wings folded, the
ailerons should be faired flush...they have to be in order to fold the
wings, even though the flaps are down - the guy doing the build on the
IPMS site is getting it wrong.  (Note that this is NOT true of a Super
Hornet.)  Check your refs, guys...
