  1. That's not a bad idea except she still had her claws. Which means there would be asany scratch marks as there would be sanded areas. Maybe I could get her to do the re-engraving of panel lines?
  2. At least you got something. I'm still waiting on a package from Paul Fisher. He sent it out before the big fire but right at the start of our postal strike.
  3. For you or the Mustang?
  4. Ahhh, my bench is back to normal. Complete chaos has returned! There's a Kingfisher under there somewhere.
  5. Yup, been there. It's a hobby. We're supposed to be having fun. Anything else is work
  6. Here's as far as I've gotten for today. The inside of the rear fuselage is now silver. I'm going to add a bit of the inner details as they may be visible through the window in the top of the fuselage. I also painted the nacelles RLM02 in the area near the MLG gear bays for the same reason.
  7. Next up, I started on the rear fuselage. The parts need some careful cleanup as there are moulded separation lines along the edges of many parts. Once cleaned up, they go together nicely though. While that was drying, I assembled the wing spar and upper wing and nacelles.
  8. With so many parts Like my cat has?
  9. I'm really jumping around on this build so don't know if it'll be a good one to follow. Anyways, I started with one of the engines. The pistons and con rods are moulded into the engines. But you'll never see them again once they're together.
  10. My bench was looking a bit too sparse with just the Kingfisher on it so I gave into the impulse to start on this kit. I've had it in the stash since it first came out so it was about time. Some of the AM for this build. As seems the current situation, our cat couldn't stay away. I just need to keep her from huffing the glue or she'll never leave. Carl
  11. I believe that the Profimodeler PBJ set may have the radar dome in it. Ernie has the set so should be able to confirm if it doesn't doesn't. Carl
  12. Well, as the saying goes: idle hands makes one glue plastic bits together.... Now I know what it's like when my sister's dog sees a squirrel.
  13. It still looks good though. Sometimes the simple approach is the bestest. Carl
  14. Ernie, is that the same crew working on FM104? Carl
  15. Yup, it kept staring at me and calling out. I really didn't either Martin. I was almost going to start another 110 but kept hearing a hooting sound.
  16. Your woodwork is truly stunning.
  17. Alright! Time to pull up a chair and watch the fun begin. There's a shop around the corner from me that does some great vintage aviation logo'd clothing including this one: Needless to say, I think I may have to get you one so you're suitably dressed for this build. Carl
  18. Thanks guys! The paint job was something new for me and now that I know I can get a fine squiggle done, it means I can finally look at some night fighter camo schemes... Carl
  19. I spent this evening working on something new...
  20. I've seen it here but haven't had a chance to get a bottle to try it yet. Judging by the condition of your bottle, I'd say it's worth looking into. Carl
  21. That's the wrong tool in the background Tony. You need one of these. Ask Harv, he'll agree with me. A nice single malt from Scotland would work too.
  22. You're lucky. My two boys have figured out they like building models and have started raiding my stash...
  23. I love the fact that these owners are out using their cars and not keeping them in little plastic bubbles.
