What is on your bench right now ? Share a picture :)

If I didn't have to rebuild pretty much everything it would be done. Its a simple and well fitting kit, but completely flaked off r&d.

Nice going. You wonder how a company can get it so wrong in today's day and age.

Well, today on my bench.......

 

I have both sides of the Friulmodel tracks done for my Tamiya Churchill

project and have sprayed the model with black Surfacer 1500. I'm getting

ready for painting once I get a chance to get back home.

       Also I've been working on my Amusing Hobby AMX-50B. Yes, this is a

weird tank!

Holy crap surprised the tank doesn't tip forward!

Now that really is a weird looking tank.

Surely seems some is out of whack. I went online and looked at a few photos and the canon didn't look that big but could have been a different version/variant as my knowledge of armor is very limited.

No building today.

Just reorganization.

Half way there i think 🤣

The bench reorganization continues.

I finally got the paint racks back up on the wall and off the floor. I also sorted through them and consolidated things.

This will hopefully give me more room on the bench as I work through the big pile(s) of stuff still on it.

Blade Runner. My favourite movie.

Same here, One of the best Sometimes I feel like a replicant, actually almost all the time

[belugawhaleman]

I have the same feelings. I asked my mom to see my birth certificate........... She seemed

cagey, and tried to change the subject.

I don’t know, but the expression on his face says he just saw Carls bench for the first time.

Nice progress on the bench cleanup and organization - amazing how much more room you will have to work in when done Just think how much easier it will be to find what you are looking for, camouflaged in the collection of modeling parts, tools and whose knows what. 😉

My vote would be for the F-16. I'm planning on converting a Tamiya 1/48 F-16C to an IAF Barak this summer as I finally have all the AM. After that, will be an IAF F-16I Sufa. 

Either kit you decide on building, I'll be following all the way.

Hmmh, not so much of a (relatively) modern jet guy, but clearly F-16. I never liked the F-18 shape wise.

Cheers Rob

[Bomber_County]

Interesting views, I have only ever done one jet so still a virgin……the jury still out, the F18 comes with Canadian markings………the F4J was a ZM so doing a Kinetic is I think be a learning curve…..

Not to be suggestive, but......

I think that the French industrial / technological achievements are criminally underrated. Their designs are unique, functional and tasteful. Tanks, aeroplanes , cars, ships, you name it. Their product is amongst the coolest out there.
