Well a little later than I anticipated with the second installment but I wound up with more work than I bargained for! First up the Revell: The Aries cockpit really seemed to throw off the whole fuselage geometry. I wound up with a step on the port side wing root that had to be filled and a considerable gap on the lower fuselage that had to be shimmed and filled. This is my third Revell Gustav and all three have really poor windscreen fit, maybe it isn't me after all! The BarracudaCast S/C intake, fresh air scoops and oil cooler are installed now too. Few more hours and she's off to the paint shop!

Hey folks, I've created a Large Scale Luftwaffe Modelers SIG on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1635195593422945/ It's a closed group, but feel free to to join in (I'll approve you, promise) if you're a FB user. Already some great stuff there! Hope to see you there soon!

Epic! :unworthy:

Impressive work!

Off to a great start Laurent, good stuff!

Outstanding!

Absolutely gorgeous, Dave!

Sweet build, Bevan!

Nice!

Great work!

Looking good!

Regular Navy chow is punishment enough!

I figure if politicians can do it, why not me?

I had this very same thought after I finish the G-10's, but I've made a non-binding resolution to finish the "shelf of doom" projects!

I used to be pretty good at managing one project at a time, possibly two. Going through the shelves of the "Luftwaffe Modeling Center of Mediocrity" I came up with this tally of partially started kits: 1/32 Trumpeter P-40B 1/32 Revell Bf 109G-10 (Erla) 1/32 Hasegawa Bf 109G-10 (with EP Erla conversion) 1/32 Revell Ju 88 (with AIMS G-6 conversion) 1/32 Hasegawa Me 262 1/35 Tamiya Tiger Late Production 1/32 Z-M Kettenkraftrad I really need to get these finished before starting anything else! Don't bet on that one though!

Thanks, Bevan. I've got a three day weekend so I'll definitely have some more pics up soon.

Tres cool!

Nice work!

Just amazing work. Laurent! I bow in your dojo!

Nice work, Dave, and no rigging either!

Nice start!

Slick work there my friend!

Nice, love those yellow winged birds!
