Here’s today’s progress. I had to scratch build some parts that were broken on the sprue. Still trying out lighting solutions for photos.

That's the new duck hunting rig here in south Louisiana. Never tell a cajun he can't do something.

Dang Mark! You're a model making machine!

Thanks guys.

Thank you.

I did a little work on the tractor today. Just wasn’t feeling it this weekend. Here’s a photo with the canopy in place but not glued down. The fuel cap went flying into another dimension so out came the punch set to make a new one.

Thank you.

We just like to watch and maybe get a couple of tips for Mom's SUV and Dad's truck.

Hey guys. After a long break thanks to Hurricane Laura, I'm finally back at the bench relaxing and building. I've had an idea to build as many of the ships as I can that were named after Louisiana and it's cities and parishes. First up was the WWII heavy cruiser New Orleans. I airbrushed the...

Can you imagine what it was like at Normandy with several of these pounding away? At least the Germans could move inland. The Japanese were surrounded on the islands.

Beautiful work on the old girl.

Well, I guess I'm a cheaper the better kind of guy.

I'll take a photo of my setup. I haven't had any issues with the bit wandering.
