SPA Modeler

John, that is a most excellent workspace!

Yesterday was time to clean the pistolas at the bench. No time for a build session.

Wow John! Magnificent workbench! Man, I wish I could get something like that! Wow!

Thanks, everyone. My grandson and I put the redone bench in use tonight, painting the bottom color on two Eduard 1/48 Yak 3's. I've also started painting the de-ice boots on the B26K and put almost a full bottle of Tamiya flat white on the Hobbycraft 1/48 Arrow.

After installing the underlayment on the roof of the new workshop I evaluated the state of my body and hired a roofer to put up the shingles. That will hopefully be done soon. I also put in some Bluetooth speakers. Pavarotti sounds great in there! The acoustics are very live.

Trying to clear the backlog. The Sea Fury and the Yak 3 in paper are my grandson Alex's current projects. Actually did quite a lot today, put flat coats on the MB.5 and my Yak, did a little touch up on the white on the Arrow, and masked and sprayed all the wheels for the Yaks, Arrow, and B-26K. Because of the workshop project, which I am putting the siding on but didn't today because of rain, these models have been on the bench way too long.

Man you’ve got your hands full there John. But it looks like they are all getting close to completion soon.

Yeah, I think it's a conspiracy to keep us away from our workbenches!

Pretty much done with these three, now to get the Arrow done. The Martin Baker MB.5 is 1/72 as is the B-26K, the Yak 3 is the Eduard 1/48. I'll take "official" photos later. Maybe I will also take the time to paint the tailwheel on the MB.5
