Steve Scanlon Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hey Ralph I have been a little busy last few days, she is now gloss black but the paint is tacky a day later, so I will post a few pics tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scanlon Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 So after a traumatic few days with paint problems caused mainly by myself I am finally back on track, My seam work needs to be better on the next build but I am not expecting anything competition standards from this one, Thanks.

RalphSarc Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Wow looks super to me and I don't see any problems to your seam work but black will show a multitude of sins, lol!! I understand by watching Flory Models video build that the seams around the intakes are a bit challenging!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scanlon Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 Hey Ralph,Thanks, the fit in several areas especially the intakes are a challenge indeed, I guess I could have picked something simpler for my first real aircraft build but hey it is all experience, j expect to do better with my Meteor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RalphSarc Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Oh cool I just bought a Tamiya 1/35 M48A3 Patton on eBay for $20.00!!! You should buy a Revell 1/32 Hawker4 Hunter and Skype build it with Arno and I? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Scanlon Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Ralph I was looking at the Hunter the other night when I picked up my Hawk, I really am tempted but I swore I would not start building another big stash and I have just ordered Kinetics Hawk 100 as I really want to do the Canadian Hawk 100, I will though build the Hunter at some point as she is a beautiful plane, hell it sounds like I am sucked into wingy things now doesn't it? I when I feel a little more confident then I will maybe give it a go if you do another Skype build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphSarc Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Yea I'm done buying kits, lol!! A 20 kit stash is out of control as far as I'm concern! Way enough to keep me busy!! Would love to have you join us with the Hunter however so be a man and buy that kit, lol!!! By the way love Burnaby BC. I was Manager of the Port Angelas WA Radio Shack across the straits and sailed my sailboat to Victoria, Komox, Desolation Sound, Vancouver etc. Love that area.
