Some more pics the white fuselage stripe tomorrow night.

Gary Hannah is a rescue dog Sis got her for me out of Fl.I had her six months maybe and she blew out a rear knee and then a year later the other one was worse.I think in all I spent a little over 3K for both knees it was worth it.I figured God gave her to move for a reason and it was not to have her put down.I can say now when I see her run I can smile and say I did that and Thanks be to God for the opportunity.Oh I need to add about 1/2 years after that I had a windfall of 45K I did not even know about laid upon me it comes back. How is Kaiser no update?

Thanks Gary.The color is a lot darker in the shop than what you see here I am about to spray the grey in minute been cooking all day Filet Mignon,bread,2X potatoes and fresh asparagus.The filet cut like butter.

I hear ya Scott the Wife forever has little things she wants me to build but it makes no money in the real sense except I am not buying it.My Sis is paying me and I was kind of surprised that she likes it as much as she does for she does like the ole battered antique look.

Gary I had that happen with my G-43 once and it was the that the case was cracked around the throat.

Thanks John. I am getting that feeling she will be OK.

I made up some Dk It.Olive from regular It.Olive pretty close to the chips.I started by spraying the the plane with black botches then lined them loosely and erratically.The next step was to fill in the grey areas with the green then to covering the black and an overall spray to my liking.The pics I have seen of the crates was of a spotty appearance for a quick build is dragging out some.

Gary those rivets are looking frigg'in Nice Sir!!They make it look like you are looking at the real thing

Oh Gary I think the DH was a .44 mag was it not?memory going for sure at times.I am not a big hand gun guy all I have is a 5" SF .45 in the WWII layout and to be honest had more kick than the Eagle the eagle is quite heavy.I always like the asthetics of the Walther over the Luger and should of bought one years back when they were $225 with the holster coming out of surplus from Germany.

Now I have shot a "Dirty Harry .357 Mag" and it was brutal!The guy had a scope actually on it a full size moose target @75yds which I promptly missed one handed shooting I handed the MK'er back back to the guy after one round!!He was laughing his arse off!I have shot and my wife has a Desert Eagle .50 with less recoil and it was her first handgun and she knock the target over(bullet so close).That gun Gary would be brutal.

Something I have been working on for sis she wanted a replacement to go in the bathroom.I just started building it and it just kind of flowed from the my head never hit paper that happens a lot paper comes for replication.The old piece she p/u in a yard sale her attraction? got me but she wanted an upgrade.I still have a few more coats of oil this Aromatic Cedar is soaking it up it's some stuff I get out of Vicksburg MS and is citrus based works really well in making the colors pop.The bottom shelf is removal-able if she does not have a desire not to use it.

Looking quite the part Rob!

It's been slow working in the other side of the shop on a piece for Sis.The Re.2005 has been primer fit overall was pretty good for a limited -run kit I think my projection of the exhaust is a bit extreme should of looked at more pics of the real thing instead went with the positive stops of the mold.I tried to loosen with acetone and about brought the whole build to a halt I managed to save the build after several cracks to the nose were repaired.The MG's in the nose are from the spares box while they gave resin for the wings which will be discarded for metal tubing.I still need to see if I have a suitable color for the top in the stash.

I think it looks pretty good Chris better than the pastels I have used just to many products out there we have a tendency to get stuck.

That is one of the nicest A/C museums in the country I live about 2hrs away to the west Rob.The last time the family went was about four years ago they had two B-25's outback getting overhauled.

And smushed those balls more than once doing just that.

Your thought was my thought for future shows represent the ship and then the plane.I built the Walrus gawd from some old kit MPC maybe has the three colors of plastic it actually came out pretty good Mike and the tilt of the engine it's real

That's a big girl Bill!

So I bookmarked the site I watch alot of YT normal TV is woke/BS and weathering is an artistic license within it self yours looks wonderful. Oh and therein lies the problem in some part I am an enamel guy probably have 200 bottles of MM and a mix of others.I like Alclad for my NM finishes which is lacquer paint.Hence the reason one has to use a clear opposite of weathering agent which for some reason does not always work for me.

Well Guys I have changed my mine I am going the Revell 1/32 Arado 196A-3 already eyeing a couple of aftermarket pieces.I got some stuff today from HLJ for the Scharnhorst and plan on starting but ready to start in November.The two kits will go hand in hand in the future..

I wish I had that confidence scaredie cat.I also think that pluming in the wh wells looks much the part.

Last GB the scale was not of issue Chris.

Looking good but they way that's worded I thought you were giving away your age Then I saw your hand whooo

Nice Gary!

She is coming right along Nicely Sasha!
