Work so far. This isn't my best effort regarding painting gluing etc. (Though it will my best if I complete it)

Thank you, Sir.

Thanks Carl! I gather Flory washes should be okay? Cheers Carl.

What ever that is, great work!

That's brilliant. Were it B&W I would imagine it a photo of a real one.

HBD!

To me this thread is called, No moon tonight.

Fantastic. Well done.

Stay tuned! Next week, Ernie builds a tail sitter! Oh Gungadin, you are a better man than I.

I agree regarding the heavy tail. How on earth will you keep the nose down???

More than 1 & 1/2 Meters!!!!! Ernie, you're mad!

How big is this model?

Wonderful. Have you read, On a wing and a prayer, by Joshua Levine? William Barker is featured.

Beautiful. Well done.

Thanks Harv. As it turns out I needed 2 kits to build one.

I also put a 1st coat on the drop tank. The azure blue is from AK. My 1st time using it and did this test.

Well I put the spar on back to front. As can be seen above. So I wasted time correcting my screw up. Basic pit colouring commenced. I broke the joy stick, having put it on earlier than usual. I set it aside and will add it later. The milliput canvass is in and awaits further painting and shading. Where it looks like clay cannot be seen once in the wing. My hand are not handling PE well. The numbness makes it difficult. I will order Fine molds plastic harnesses from now on. Loads still to be done on the pit, but this is where it is. I will have to wait until Sunday due to musical commitments. Thanks again guys.

New gas mask and an X wing fighter.

In the end I was lazy and got up at 6.00 a.m. Early enough to fashion the 2nd wheel bay and have a coffee. Quick shower and then it is MILLIPUT TIME!!!!! 7 hours to model then it is drumming time. Not a bad life really.

All it needs is for some smart arse kid to write "wash me" with a finger in the dust. Fantastic. Bloody marvelous.

Fantastic!

Hi Carl. I do have one somewhere but want to fashion one of my own. It should be easy. I remember what it looks like. Actually I recall butchering it with a dremel back when I was bonkers. I've not had a chance to do anything today due to drumming. I am setting my alarm for 5 A.M so I get an early start. I have been doing it haphazard. I told Harv I am surrounded by sprues. I wasn't wrong. Now I have put everything aside carefully and focused on one thing I find I am really enjoying it. I am very grateful for the support. About once every 8 weeks a little of my brain returns. It looks like I wont lose my foot as well. I am pretty chuffed right now.

Happy birthday.
