Next on the bench. I tell ya the armor bug has really bitten me. So much less stress than aircraft. Anyway the lower hull is together the HVSS bogies are together and a couple of thing done on the upper hull. Not a whole lot to show. Except for the pivoting exhaust baffle. I put several hours...

I got tired of fighting the PE dangling balls on the Merkava, and pulled this down off the shelf. Very simple and easy build. Actually two afternoons this past weekend.

This is an old build I started 7or 8 years ago. Just pulled it back out a couple of weeks ago and decided to finish it off.

I’ve been in a rut for a while but I’m slowly trying to make a new start at the bench. I pulled an old build out of storage recently and just started glueing shit together! Felt good too!’ I’m going to try to not get bogged down in the finish or fit or rivet counting I had done in the past to...

I recently got to do a walking tour of B-29 FIFI and B-24 Diamond Lil at my local airport. Basically I spent 8 hours taking pictures of everything I could get my little camera and phone to focus on. The back end of FIFI was closed off so i Couldnt get in there but managed to hold the camera...

This is gonna take some time but be patient with me update will be forthcoming.

here's my next project! Now lets see what kind of a mess I can make out of this :blink:

I ran across this little video from the BBC, last night. I thought I’d share. https://www.facebook.com/BritishComedy/videos/2090487097835251/

Here’s a few pictures of my lastest 1:1 project. I completely rebuilt the exterior of the mud room at the back of the house. New door new sheathing, new vinyl siding. Now maybe I can get some bench time!

Ok boys I’m jumping into this one late in the game. But my offering has so many short comings being a reboxing of the Aurora effort with a few feeble attempts by Monogram to fix a dog kit, that I’m not going to make a whole lot of dust trying to put lipstick on a pig. What I will do is assemble...

Ive just broken the seal on the box! The sprues... The clear parts such as they are, I really like the dimples in the side windows! And the flash!! not too bad really. I've had a lot worse to clean up. And last but not least the very nicely done Cartograf decals!

My initial attempts at dolling up the cockpit and closing up the fuselage. I've been away from the bench too long, but I'm trying to slowly work my way back into the fray. I thought this would be a nice little kit to restart the juices flowing.

Just finished this up this morning. Not a bad little kit for $4.00. The decals were a royal pain, but I made them work.Painted with Bombshell Brew acrylics. I'm still new to acrylics, but I think I did ok for a first effort. Thanks for looking! Greg

Seeing that MM is phasing out their enamels and WEM is hard to come by here in the states. I won’t even discuss Humbrol. I’m going to start the move into acrylics. What brand would be the easiest for me to start with? I know you guys have your favorites, but on the whole I want to not have to go...

I won't go into the uglyness of this build. It did go into the trash can a couple of times only to find me digging it back out. Just finished it up yesterday.

Just a bit of an up date on the Voodoo. I'm in no hurry to get this one done, I've been tinkering with it for 5 years or so. I promised this build to MOON PUPPY along time ago, he finished I gave up. But now it's back on the bench. I hate the open speed brakes on the ground so I just glued the...

To keep killing time until I get a doctor's release to return to work, I thought I might as well pull this one back out and try to finish it. All the major assemblies are done and a little minor painting here and there. I came up with a plan to give the impression that there is something...

I'm sure that this will be news to everyone here. But due to a work related accident I've had to have part of my left index finger amputated. I spare you the ugly details and photos of that just to keep this a family friendly site. I'm still in the bandaging from the surgery so I have no idea...
