Shaun sent pictures out...

Just ordered 4.

Perhaps he can post them on the web somewhere so we can get it on this forum. Looks pretty good. Will need some detail work.

C-17 model

Post by 1ComOpsCtr »

Gentlepersons,

Received the C-17 miniatures from Shawn this week. I should be able to complete the first model within the next few days, paint, and detail it so that you all can see how fine an example of the manufacturers work it is... looks great and should be pretty easy to build.

DUPLICATE POSTS

Post by 1ComOpsCtr »

I am sorry for the duplicate posts but the system generates an error message that makes you think your post didn't take, and there is also a delay in posting so when you go back to your post you think you failed again and again...

I hope GHQ can fix the problem...

Ah, well at least the SQerL* is an equal-opportunity pest. Folks are being nipped by this vermin in almost every thread. At least your repeat post didn't contain 4 or 5 pics, like my first SQerL bite.

C-17 model

Post by 1ComOpsCtr »

I will post a couple of "in the process" photos of the C-17 today. I've decided to make the first one with the back open and the ramp down. The model requires some work but will be an excellent workhorse for our simulations.

Thanks Shaun...
