Size matters

Just got my game manual in today. Holy crap that thing is gigantic.

Glad I ordered it!

I have serious manual envy.

So how about you show us those model boxes you have there?

[rroberson]

lol I'm a novice modeler currently I have a couple of 190s, a 110, a Junkers and an ardo under construction...as well as a wildcat.

I'm working on Revell's 1/32 He111P. I'll have to mount it on the wall, as it's too big for a tabletop display. Unless someone wants to trade a WITW manual for it.... [8|]

Nice bird....all that canopy painting would intimidate the hell out of me. I have a couple of bombers that have been sitting on my shelf waiting for me to muster the courage to paint the canopies.

Check around you can find lots of pre-cut masks for the canopies, for ease of painting. Or get some Tamiya tape and just tape off the windows individually. It takes a while, but at least you won't have any overage, so be brave and tackle those bombers.

Sigh. I remember building Tamiya 1/35 armor when I could see detail up close, and didn't have helpful cats.
Good times.

Building and painting with my two Huskies interesting to say the least.

Yeah i have begun the hunt for tape masks...I have used them on a couple of birds (finished a 1/72 il2 recently) to good use.

I don't know if I can post links here, but genessis models (with the extra "s") has outstanding video tutorials on masking canopies. Everything else, too.

As for the manual, I hope it will be offered as a stand-alone purchase at some point. Like the WIF map pack. The PDF is fine, but I wish I had bought the boxed version.
