BlrwestSiR Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 My bench wasn't crowded enough. I found a couple square inches of free space when I moved some paint bottles so I've started something new... 2 1 3 1
belugawhaleman Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 Working on Tamiya's Brummbar....this is their 2017 release. The kit has built up great so far, although I still have a ways to go. The upper hull and roof in this picture are not glued in yet.....their fit is just that good. The tracks...although "rubber band" look ok.....I may use them, but last night I remembered I had some T-Rex studio tracks that would work with this kit,.... although those near microscopic resin track pins look formidable.... And fragile. 5 1

Need a clue to know what you are building🧐 2 1

Peterpools Posted May 21, 2023 Posted May 21, 2023 Thanks Carl, will be following. Going to be a terrific build. 2 1
BlrwestSiR Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 My bench runneth over. The paints were getting out of hand, with much of them on my bench rather than in the racks. The paint racks that are around my bench can hold around 400 paint jars. They're close to full. When I went looking for something in the stash, I found the overstock. It's a wine crate that I use to hold extra paint in. I need to go through this more often after sorting through it. Mr Color on the left, Tamiya in the middle and AK on the right. Yup, 20 bottles of black at the back: gloss, semi-gloss, rubber and NATO black. Yet I can never find one when I need it. A bunch of Alcad too. As a result, I'm currently reorganizing the paint racks and filling in any gaps with the overstock. At least I have lots of thinner and cleaner. 3 6

BlrwestSiR Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 Peter, it definitely was a nice find. I found most of the colours I need for the Cavalier Mustang. 3

belugawhaleman Posted May 23, 2023 Posted May 23, 2023 More on my Tamiya Brummbar build....... So far a trouble free fun build. 5 1

GazzaS Posted May 28, 2023 Posted May 28, 2023 I'm involved in 2 local group builds as well as our get-wet build. Here is one of them... Tamiya OOB. 8 1
