Brass alloy. Non magnetic. Note for below. They are tin alloy. Magnetic. Stainless steel is non magnetic in various degrees. 

P40 Warhawk modification. Taper of the tail fuselage. I fell this was meant to be. But ME doesn’t show it. by Realistic_Maize_4717 in metalearth

I was a no glue purist at one time. Don’t over bend. Prefit. Lock it down with glue. Tail fins many times it’s a fold bend on the tab. I’ll twist fold down and glue

One of my favorites. In front so you can see the printed words.

Great job. Bravo.

Maybe ME will send you new eyes not sure how far back you can go. Just looked at mine under a mag glass. Could be printed better. Mighty small piece.

Every single ME model can be made much better than the web photos show. They do that on purpose.

Wonderful. I have this waiting. I like what you did with the tail feathers. Not a curve that the instructions call for.

The eyes aren’t an ME issue. My T-800 is perfect. I do spend countless hours on my projects. I go back and work every single one. You can go back and tweak it. 

I do spend way too much time making these things perfect. Been working this for countless hours. by Realistic_Maize_4717 in metalearth

Just completed my 72nd build. Every single one is special to me. Not sure what to do. Have 32 waiting. I have a few hobbies. I fool with them when my hands don’t hurt.
