Very interesting mix . Can't play anything myself but I do love music :D

Listening to a lot of blues now days but I'm not sure what Blues Country Rock is . Never had an affinity for country :pinch:

Still trying to understand Jazz ....

Do you have anything on the commercial market ?

Cheers, Christian B)
 
It keeps it interesting thats for sure and allows me a LOT of playing.
I never liked country all that much either, but playing it is kinda fun.
Jazz is an acquired taste and a wonderful challenge musically.
I have one band close to a CD Release "Shark Dad" however I think we're going to recut the EP with our additional guitar player.
 
Pics!
:yipee

Opened the elevator joiner rod openings
Removed molded trim tabs on elevators and ailerons, replaced with tin bits
Opened the mg shell chutes and boxed those and the cannon shell ports (joined wing halves)
Grafter on the hasegawa supercharger scoop
Added the hand hold on the ip combing (missing on one side)
Opened the MG ports and scoop on the gun cowl
Filled the sink holes in the prop

This plastic is hard to shoot, very very light.
 
as you can see i've also glued A wheel half (yes 1) into the well to attach the gear leg cover to.
A whole wheel wont fit and there is NO way an actual gear leg would fit too. :bang head

Next steps are to re-create the rudder trim tab and start hollowing the exhaust stubs.

No wonder you haven't been taking pictures, that's a lot of work! :dude

Well done :eek:hyeah
 
Thanks :)

I forgot to upload the pic of the completed cockpit tub.
I've also started painting the pilot figure, which was going GREAT till I decided to paint the life vest... :bang head
I need to thin down the wheels to allow the gear doors to fit right, otherwise the LE of the door at the wheel sits proud.
I've opened bits and bobs about the airframe and need to detail them a touch.

This will be Red 13 due to the early canopy and SC intake.
 
I'd love to do a big railway gun, but would never be able to build it to "my standard" or display it.
Granted my new model space will be huge, I cant dedicate a table to a single model lol
 
Pics to come of:
Completed Cockpit and Pilot
Prop in paint stages
broken fuselage (d'oh)
Completed carving of the wheels to allow the gear doors to sit pretty
 
You're a better man than me about the figure :good: Only, is that Spock ??? :hmmm

Just has that appearance.

Cheers, Christian B)
