During the
nationals in Oklahoma City, I got to meet met the renowned Jerry Crandell. If
there are nicer people in this industry, I don't know who they are. I got
interested and bought his D-13 book, and was further hooked after seeing
someone's great build in the 48th scale competition. My "I'm inspired to
build this" list grew exponentially that weekend, and the D-13 topped
it. Hopelessly afflicted with AMS, I procured the MDC set, Ultracast
exhausts, Eagle Strike Decals, and a forgotten manufacturer's hood conversion.
All were outstanding. The MDC set took a little bit of work to fit, but
turned out fine. Painting was done in Pollyscale and Gunze acrylics, applied
with my trusty Sotar 20/20.
Thanks to all
contributors.......happy modelling.
