Hello jnyoun, I applaud your work. First to take on such a complex build as a first timer. Most of us started with simple models, ships are a "special class" which most of us consider "for the gifted". Second for starting over and for a third time. Your determination will be rewarded. Think of...

There is more, do a search on this site for Cleopatra. You will find a thread which Larry picks up on the building of the mast, however the photo's are lost. I wanted to add that on teh Model Ship World website http://modelshipworld.com/phpBB2/portal.php There are discussions of...

I would welcome a copy of what you are able to do with the recoloring. I have Cleo as well. On a related question. The Cleo thread continues on for some several more pages and is hosted on the present site. However the images are gone. Is there any way to recover the "second part" of the...

Chief, Yes I have it. With Maurice's help I was able to sip it up and can send it to you by email if you wish. John

Maurice. It should be off to you via yahoo and zipped. Thanks for that. If it is successful I will pass it along to those who wish. John

Maurice. I signed up for hotmail and was in process of sending you the file. However, the file is a collection of files and hotmail wants to send them one by one. I cannot figure out how to send a folder of files. Any suggestion. John

Well I just checked and have it. Not sure how to make it available. It appears to be 4+ mb. My yahoo account would melt down. Probably could send it in pieces. Could someone provide some history/background on the Cleopatra? John

I have been harboring the same dream. To build the Surprise or as close as a kit can get me. I have the Cleopatra. Some time ago a leading member of this group was deep into the building of the Cleo. Larry's passing left the cleo as a fond memory. The build thread was a joy and a testiment to...

DeWayne, I know it must be hiding in plain sight but what is the cost of the roadster. I am wanting the red one and will be patient however I believe there are more then color differences and may need the blue one as well. You know how the "need" thing goes. John

In May of 05 we were discussing Halinski's new releases at that time. This led to a short wish list. I had expressed a desire for a Dauntless " perhaps a 3 with the red and white stripes". It was announced just before the first of the year and what a "3" this history on this plane, pilot and...

Jim, I have been following you closely and was just about to make a general lpost regarding how to work with photo-etch. Well it seems you are going down that road so I will ask you. How do you cut those parts out? How do you paint them, and how do you attach them? Do you set holes in the deck...

Gil, I have to say I have a pair of fiskars shears, I bought them after reading discussions on this forum. I use them for cutting the straight slots in formers. They set on my desk and are a fine piece of hardwear, well made and of good design. I rarely use them I have not recently tried...
