Ron, I definitely have one set but I need to find where it is in the stash. As soon as I do, Ill let you know.

The cockpit is definitely the " do I push on or throw in the towel?" point in the build. Glad you stuck it out.

I was switching schools from university to art college. Realized attending the first one was a complete mistake and I should've been an artsy. Unfortunately I didn't get to finish. The Jagdpanther is coming along nicely. It's made me want to go through the stash to see what I have. Found a Meng Panther A, a Takom Flak Panther and a RFM Jagdpanther. I was so tempted to start one but I don't have the space on my bench.

Ron, they're available in the Zoukei Mura weapons set. I may have a pair left over. Let me take a looka and I'll let you know. Carl

That looks great Kevin.

Can't wait to see what you do with the F-104. I enjoyed the 2 I built and still have a 3rd one in the stash. Carl

Looking good there.

My first try at building it was around the same time. Made a right mess of it and I don't think I actually finished it.

That I do! But my wife says I already have half the basement so I'm not sure I can get more space.

I'm with Martin, some very nice progress on the paint.

Gus, this one is an original boxing of the kit so it's from the '80s. It's actually the very first 1/32 aircraft kit done by Tamiya. They've come a long way since then that's for sure.

Glad you're back at the bench, even if it's for short spurts. Looking good there Martin. The upper wings mods have come out really well.

She's back on the bench instead of under it. I decided to take the Tamiya F-14 I had previously started and try to make some progress on it. This one was a bit warped compared to the one I did earlier and the two fuselage halves weren't mating nicely. I finally got it sorted and together. The join seam still isn't pretty but is much better than it was.

That's an interesting looking engine Paul. You my UST have a nice collection of them now. Carl

Fantastic work and a great display of I'm the finished model.

Finally got back the bench. I tires to airbrush the Diamond T chassis but for some reason I had a hard time holding the airbrush. I had to switch hands to get it done. Thankfully it's all one colour and will get some weathering to it so that'll cover any bad spots Carl

You're welcome Martin! Glad it cheered you up.

That's great to hear Martin and glad to see you back at the bench. Carl

Looks great!

The build is just moving along nicely. Looks to be a nice straightforward build like most Tamiya kits. Carl

At first glance I thought you'd bought a case lot of 1/200 ship models (or similarly sized kits) and then remembered you were getting new flooring. Carl

Hi Kevin, Just like you said, I glued the lower centre wing part first and then added the upper wings. Here's a link to my build gallery so it doesn't clutter up your build thread. https://carlkung.smugmug.com/Hobbies/Hurricane-Mk-1

Coming together nicely there.

Sublime work. That engine looks like you could just add some gas and it would fire right up. Carl

I've got that StuG as well. I wouldn't mind seeing a WiP too Carl
