All Righty ... What's on the bench today?

[Iron Mike]

Woohoo!

 

[Duke Maddog]

Looking good Ron! I'd love to have one.... or five.... of those in 1/72 scale. Looking forward to seeing more.

Fantastic to 'see' you Ron, I have that kit too, plus all the 'stuff' to go into it. Was going to use it as part of a diorama sometime.

Pre-shaded and first paint - all Tamiya acrylics mixed by the ol' Mk.I eyeball method !!

Been a real hit and miss the last couple months or more like the last year at my bench

But could not sleep this morning so I messed around some,

made a couple sanding sticks with 120 grit

Worked a little on this '26 Mack AC, trying to get the leaf springs to look a little better

And made some parts for the base of the bed

Have a good weekend everyone. I'll be doing the vampire thing next three days


:dude

More 'Klear / Future' then panels accented with Flory Wash (Dark Dirt & Grime). Also 'oiled' the underside with Paynes Grey, Burned Sienna & Raw Umber (all Windsor & Newton), using the 'oil-dot method'. Exhaust plume using Tamiya 'Smoke' (love that stuff).

Next, decals.

Started in 2009, and back from the 'Shelf of Forgetfulness':

Hobbyboss's very fine (IMO) Mirage IIICZ, I'll be using the kit decals and Tamiya acrylics. Mask, spray mask again, same way as I painted the Esci / Italeri Mirage IIIO I did a couple of years back.

Our tame Sith Efrikaan has been given a 'heads up' message :v

Decals occured this afternoon:

They do 'shout a bit' at the moment, but they'll calm down once they're weathered and blended in to the paintwork.

I like it Ian!

I agree with Dave, Jeaton wins the cutest bench award! What darling little ones!

I'm also doing a South African Mirage; mine is in bare metal finish though. Yours is really looking great Ian! Bring it on my friend!
