SPA Modeler

Thanks Gents!

I bought some Flory Models 'Grime' wash the other day, I'm not very good with washes/weathering and I thought I might give it a go on this to dirty it up a bit, as the Sabres in Korea didn't look overly pristine from what I can see - any thoughts?

I'm no NMF expert but what I found that looks kinda cool is post shading with Tamiya smoke.

That's an interesting idea - that does look pretty damn good!

what's on my bench? ME...after a week off. Miss Pam is doing great, ear is coming along and of all things, a gout flare up in her toe is subsiding. Thank you for all the prayers, well wishes and kind thoughts. You guys are the best.

Now, what is actually on the bench (sorry, no pics...secret stuff you know)

Pilatus Turbo Porter
1967 Impala
B-25 (terrified of masking the canopy and turrets)
F-107 - probably be binned if i don't make it a gear up build. The Trumpeter landing gear on this one is the worst.
and, finished a ancient Hawker Hurricane from the very old "young modellers club" collection. Not a bad kit, but zero interior.

Well get off it - you'll break it!

Glad to hear that Pam is doing well and you've got some time to play Lyle!

Excellent! Welcome back to the bench Lyle!

What Stuart said: don't break the workbench! Now bring on those pics!

Got a couple of grandkid projects to the finish line, this morning. We finished Alex's Nichimo 1/48 Hunter, and Audrey completed the Snoopy Camel, so that completes the pair of the Curse You Red Baron twins. Flipping the prop to start it and sticking fingers in to stop them seems to be a very popular activity.

Now those look like some very happy kids!

That's awesome John - and will done to the Grandkids!

That look like a grand time was had by all!
