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!

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.

It's clear in the photo....very long gun.

AMX 50 Surbaissé, or Char 50t B, on trials, 1958. This vehicle was the last in the AMX M4 program, and the only one officially classified as a heavy tank_kindlephoto-453615.jpg

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.

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.

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…..

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.
