That bird's got some bite!

A "boat' is an oceangoing conveyance capable of diving to great depths and safely returning to the surface. A "ship" is an oceangoing surface conveyance. A "2x4" is the thing Phil's gonna smack you with for calling calling his ship a boat.

Maybe with a primitive fission device....

That’s what a REAL engine looks like. Not like those lamp oil burning stem winders

hehehee. It's odd, because I keep by Business super clean and we have a lady who comes clean our home since my wife's Lupus developed. She won't place one foot in the model room though. And they ALL get mad when I track the dust of the Czech Republic's finest resin all over our house.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH! I'm MELTING!!! It's too clean! (apologies to The Wizard of OZ)

Tony cringes every time he comes over and sees my bench. Now I know why.

Can’t be. Only one main aft turret, and each turret has 4 guns. Bur Phil’s bench is way too neat. Give me an afternoon and I’ll fix it for you.

Little side project...

Nice! Congrats man, you deserve it. And Martin giving away all my secrets!

Superb! Looking awesomeso far.

Don’t worry about the hijack, folks. Bring it on. This is now a C-47 thread.

Cool. Thanks Dave

Astounding work being performed here. LSM is the place to be for Lanc stuff, no doubt. We have some incredible builds spinning up, and there's a bunch of us over on this side of the pond getting ready for our builds as well. As a large Scale Model builder, and avowed love of the heavies, I've never been happier. Ju-88s, He-111s, B-17 x2, B-25s, a plethora of Mosquito variants, a B-24, soon to be two, and now a Lanc. Seriously guys, 10 years ago who'd have ever thought this day would come? And we're expecting HPH to bring us an SM-79, HGW is bringing us an A-20, we have a C-47, Gotha G.lV, Felixstowe, and soon to be released Bloody Paralyzer. It doesn't get any better than this, folks! I'm a very, very happy man right now. And plenty lighter in the billfold as well.

Well, just dropped a bunch of cash on some modules. We’ll see how it works, and get a few more if it looks promising. We’ll see. For thatkind of money, it should make a self cleaning bench. Oh wait, it is self cleaning... Cleaned by my self.

That scheme’s in the kit, but you need to mask your own stripes

They don’t magically reorganize themselves?

Heheheeeeee

Now that's a big Organ!

Hubert wins the prize!! I was waiting and wondering who would be first to mention the paradox... Big expensive stash, and a bench that looks like an old abandoned Soviet airfield after the wall came down

Yeah yeah yeah, everybody pile on poor Ernie. Danny, I don't mind setting myself up to be the laugh of the day.

As I said, nasty. No wonder I spilled glue on my F-5F! I’m sorry I don’t have pics of the bench alone. Just background shots

I’ve been pouring over the HobbyZone USA site and this gonna cost a pretty penny. But, once and done I suppose, so, first order of business, order the obvious and get started. I’ve decided to redo my model bench. As in a whole new bench, with the HobbyZone system rigged up to avoid the junky bench I’ve had for the best part of 10 years. I work best with a bit of controlled chaos on my bench, I want a bottle or brush right at my fingertips when working, and not have to go digging in a drawer for every tool or color bottle. Just not the post-Chernobyl look I’ve attained. Time to join the rest of you. Heck, even Carl’s bench looks spotless compared to mine.

Will the 36mm racks fit normal Gunze Mr. Color and Tamiya acrylic glass jars? The smaller 26mm are for Vallejo and MRP?

But uh oh, what did I just feel under my cloth.... No matter how much you check, you always miss something. Rookie mistake. So out comes the wet paper and a bit of touch up paint, this time with a little better paint mix and airbrush control.
