    Thanks Martin! I'll do my best to carry on and get her finished.

    They always do Jeff.

    Same here. Although initially she did like the treats that the cats would leave her in the litter box. Carl

    I've got the Revell and Tamiya kits in the stash so will be looking forward to this. Carl

    My LHS is discontinuing carrying MMP paint because a bottle lasts so long that they don't get the same number of sales for other brands. One of the guys at the store only used a third of a bottle when he painted the HK Lanc. I've used it a few times and like it. Sue likes it more as it has no odour to it when I airbrush. I have had the odd adhesion issue but nothing recent after I followed their mixing instructions (as Ernie said). By the way, the thinner is the same as Createx (they make the paint for MMP)along with the catalyst. Carl

    A love/hate sort of relationship I guess. No rush on the Beaufighter. My bench, in fact the whole basement is in shambles at the moment. Partway through the reorganization.

    Not quite in the same league but I've always wanted to build a cedar strip canoe. Got most of the tools now, built a garage big enough, just need to convince Sue.... Carl

    That sounds awesome Tony. Totally jealous. Carl

    Like Kev said, that cockpit looks fantastic. Carl

    It'll be in the last possible place you look. Because it's Murphy's law. Happens to me all the time. We're not moving but the reorganization of our basement is now truly underway and it is complete chaos. The new shelves are built and they're already full with the kits that I have managed to move in the stash. Still have about a 1/3 left to move and sort. Then the pantry stuff goes where my stash used to.

    That's a lot of work Martin. Great results though so definitely worth it Carl

    That beats the pic I ended up with. I've been playing Pokemon with the boys and one of the things you have to do is take a pic of your Pokemon. This one ended up in front of Sue...

    Try Deserres. Their prices don't seem too bad. If you buy the big one it's free shipping too. https://www.deserres.ca/en/dcm Mine is the 12x18. I have two of them stacked on top of each other for no real reason I can think of.
  14. BlrwestSiR
    Kev, they're not bad. I thought the same thing when I looked at them. They're designed well and if you're careful with the glue, they still work after assembly.

    Don't worry Steve! It's staying in the box for a while. Trying to finish the Corsair at the moment.
  16. BlrwestSiR
    Looks really nice in the box.

    Kev, the Miniart M3 is a very nice kit. The only fit issues I had were operator inflicted. I just need to get back to mine and finish it. Carl

    I built one a little while back. It was enjoyable enough and I don't recall any huge issues with the build. I think some folks have said there are some shape issues but I didn't know enough about 109s to recognize them. Carl
  19. BlrwestSiR
    Very nice and clean there John. Carl
  20. BlrwestSiR
    I really don't know how I get anything done at my workbench...
  21. BlrwestSiR
    Really lovely build John. How did you find the wing fold? I picked up the one piece wing as well as I wasn't sure if the folded wings would hold. Or worse, I'd just knock them off. Carl
  22. BlrwestSiR
    Well, it looks like I haven't updated this in a while. As a result I seems to have missed documenting a few steps. I attached the engine to the frame and cowl flaps. The engine then went onto the assembled fuselage. I then finished the assembly of the wing centre section. This was attached to the fuselage and that's where I am now.
  23. BlrwestSiR
    Nice progress on this. I'm still waiting for the D conversion to come out. Carl
  24. BlrwestSiR
    Mine's a bit buried but here's most of it. I also have the F-8C and RF-8G conversion sets. Wish I had the Meteor F.8 set. Carl
