Bring it on Greg,

As you should all know, today was the start of the Korean War, 68 years ago. Today is also a special day for my brother Ron as he was born on June 25, 1950. I think he was part of the reason for the war...

Prost

Hey Allen, John, and the others...it will start very very soon :tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:
Jim R.. Parafilm is a Laboratory film to seal (medically) without glue, items. So it's a PERFECT tool to make canvas... tarps and also to cover glass for paiting.
To use it it's SUPER simple... Pull.. peel.. stretch apply and paint...20151227_170631000_iOS_zps6bt0wbol.jpgParafilm-M-09.jpgParafilm-M-04.jpg

Evening Greg,

Great to see we are off and running on this huge project. Older kits do need lots of love and work to make them shine. I do have to ask a question though. Who makes the chain you are using on the howitzer??? I do need to get some with small links like that. Thanks in advance Sir and drive on! It's gonna be good!!!

You are welcome Jim and thank you Steve

Indeed Ian it was one hell of a fight and especially the moment at the Fuchillin pass was really one of the most dangerous and stunning moment.. when the tread-way bridges were brought at the dam and at the same time the seize of hill 1081
