SPA Modeler

Calling this one done. Had a bunch of issues - mostly my fault plus some experiments that went south.
She's a tail sitter ( again my fault ) hence the blob of clay under the tail.



She's up on the shelf with my trainer squadron

Looks good with your trainer squadron John. Now you need a T-33 and T-38 up there to join the Squadron. Also a SNJ/T-6

I don't have a T-33 so I'll have to go looking for that one. I have a T-38 in the stash and oddly enough the I put the T-6 on the bench last night.

This is my trainer list

In the stash

T-6 Texan
T-45C Goshawk
T-2C Buckeye
TF-9J Cougar
T-38 Talon
TA-4J

No one makes

T-37 Tweet

Complete

T-28B Trojan
T-34 Mentor
T-6 Texan II
BAE Hawk T Mk.1

Where'd you get the Texan II? I need one.

The kit is from IsraCast and was pretty nice.
Build thread is here: https://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_s ... 76720.aspx

Well, the Monogram A-37 can be converted into the original T-37 with some surgery…

I'll save that one for last

"Starting with a chain saw, then my old boy scout ax, and finally diminishing grades of sandpaper, I was able to alleviate the dilemma."

After a successful Comet build, I start to be back in building mode.

A brief inventory of my half-ready, "almost ended on the shelf of doom, but wont happen" - projects

Goal to finish one of these before end of 2023

Apologies for being a bit quite over the holidays Gents, the old Mojo has been waxing an waning a lot recently. Sufficed to say I've canned both the F-111, EF-111A and F-14 builds - far too much work. The EF-111A got binned alas as I just wasn't happy with it.

I have got these on the go.

A little Westland Whirlwind - which is destined for RAF SAR markings.



A Zvezda Hurricane mk.II which is just awaiting the arrive of some SEAC decals. It's a superb kit this - all OOB except the Vokes filter.



And a little Landrover - I've scratched up the missing gearstick etc.





I hope you're all well!

Cheers!

Nice, Stuart. Steering wheel is on the wrong side though.
