Ok, I went and picked up fresh (is that a thing?) marshmallows and this time they did what they were supposed to. So, success! 

So, the morale of the story: 

If at first you don't succeed, feed the evidence to the dog. 

 

Try them with Cocoa Krispies some time!

Tamiya Birdcage Corsair. I needed a break from the Z-M 109. Barracuda's cockpit stencils are tedious, but well worth it.

Haven't seen those up here. We have Festive ones at the moment that are red and green. 

[BlrwestSiR]

I couldn't help myself. I just wanted to glue something together.  Besides my fingers. We'll see how far I get. 

I'm still working on the Falcon though.

Well it's a twin engine....harv

It's the Special Hobby Whirlwind.

Oh cool !....harv

Still working on the Tamiya M51 Sherman...... Primer on ...using bothTamiya primer

and MR. Surfacer 1500 thinned with leveling thinner which works great. Still debating

what to use to paint it. A mixture of Tamiya desert yellow and buff was suggested

by a modeler on YouTube..... May try some pre-shading first..I've never got this right, usually applying the color coat to heavily and losing the effect.. We'll see. Anyway, it's

good to be doing something at least....I'll try to be a little more creative, perhaps, this time.😀 Please note the Tamiya thinner and Mr. Surfacer were not mixed together....they were used separately.

[Martinnfb]

That looks really good Paul.

[GazzaS]

That looks great, Paul.  Really...   it's the only Sherman that gives the 'wow' factor.  Now...   this is a special request...   please find some 1/35 scale IDF tank maidens to put on it.  Israeli girls are so hot!

I got more done than I thought or expected.

Nice start and it looks like you're digging into the SH Whirlwind. Will be following.

Looking so good in primer and for me, the fun part begins.

You're flying through the Whirlwind, incredible progress and looking mighty good. 

 

[mark31]

A helping fiend.

[GazzaS]

The Dragon SdKfz 250/11 continues.  I kitted out the interior per the kit instructions and weathered it.  But the crew will obscure most details.  But here I have proof.

 

Once I get the top of the machine glued down I can start to adjust the poses of the riders.

[Peterpools]

Gaz

As always - some mighty fine weathering and you're so right, the crew does obscure most the weathered details but will look so good.

 

[Bomber_County]

Very nice Gaz, halftracks require a different approach…..looks very snug in there…..

[BlrwestSiR]

Nice work on the half-track. Can't believe how tiny it is.
