Re: My Tangerine Dream

Wow, we're almost at the same point. Here's my 1/48th Ocidental build. Mine will represent a USAF advanced trainer of the 50's.

BTW, I'm REALLY curious how you obtained your print copy of the Federal Standard 595C Colors?

Also gorgeous! My experience with my 1 PCM model was a mixed bag - great having the added detail, but getting everything to fit together was a bit of a challenge.

Re: My Tangerine Dream
