Beautiful camo job John! Looks like you’re not too far from the finish line.

Superb John - my favourite V-bomber!

Now that’s a Victor I’d love to get someday.

Thanks, all. I hope to eventually have 4 examples of the V Bombers done. The new Airfix Victor B.2, Vulcan B.2, and Valiant BK Mk 2 are in the stash, as well as the Revell Victor and the older Airfix Vulcan. I may try to build the old Vulcan, but if anyone wants the Revell/Matchbox Victor I'll make them a deal they can't refuse.
The current Victor is a nice kit but it is best approached without impatience as there is a lot to it.

Beautiful Victor John! I have one each of all three V-bombers built, no variants though. Nice work!

It seems like a long road to finishing something lately, so I thought I'd post a general work in progress.
The Hasegawa Ground Support Set A, portions of 3 ESCI GSE sets (it takes more than one, some of the parts are fragile on these kits and they have been laying around the stash for a long time and are of suspect origins. No surprise some parts are absent!), the Monogram F-16C waiting for Thunderbird decals to be applied, and a Hasegawa B-47 that has been on the bench for so long it is starting to haunt my dreams. It's getting close, though. All but the B-47 are 1/48, of course.

That's looking great John. I'm blaming spring fever for my slow down in progress -- part of me wants winter to return...jeaton01 wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2023 10:02 pm It seems like a long road to finishing something lately, so I thought I'd post a general work in progress.

I'm in a little funk too. Everything is in the ready to paint stage. Just haven't had the time to get the airbrush going.

Rufe buttoned up - amazing fitting kit for its age.
