Nice. Looks like you've got this. I hate it when some parts look too small or too large (in some instances).

Thanks, Tom!

I’m following along with your aircraft and PE building. The work you did with the camouflage colors is amazing!

Since I failed twice attempting to paint the propeller, I cast a wider net for ideas. I know some or all of you fellas are using these AK Magic Sticks. I thought I would give these a try—

Nice. Interesting to see you work your magic.

Thanks, Tom!

Still learning from everyone here. Hope to see Duke Friday for ideas. Still writing to Marius in Germany too! Ditto Carlos. Also Mike the Medic, Torben Mustard, John Eaton, Gary and Chris and last but not least Kari & Lyle!



I keep sanding and filling Revell’s propellor. The British used mahogany stain.

You are the teacher. I am the “Bob Uecker” of model building. Try to have fun and be okie-dokie at building.

He wasn’t called “Mr. Baseball” because he was a bad catcher or announcer. He lived and breathed baseball. He’s a perfect analogy for you. You live and breathe the fumes of countless projects. Your shelves are full. You still keep building. We can all learn from your example.

No pictures yet. I’m still adjusting the cowling fit and its color. By painting brown over green over grey I created a nice even finish but what I’m going after is less perfect and more realistic—less like a toy. Let’s see if I can cook that up without cooking my own goose, as the saying goes.

Bruce, I finally got caught up with this after so many days away. No need to apologize for missing St. Crispin's, health and family come first. I am amazed at your incredible work on the Sopwith Camel, I could not tell at all where you made any repairs. Magnificent!

A belated Happy Birthday to you as well. I do like to celebrate them in a big way because I never know which one is going to be my last one. As for a reason you are here; I'd say at least one reason is to keep us all motivated and astounded at your ability to persevere through difficulties and make such amazing models.

Keep plugging Bruce, you got this.
