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

[Duke Maddog]

Great job Mike! Way to go!

Here's a partial preview of what's happening on my workbench:



Details are in the next tour of Maddog Manufacturing. Feel free to stop in.

Looks good Mark! I have to try and take a look at that Shinmeiwa kit this weekend.

 

[Heavens Eagle]

You need a bigger bench Mark!

 

[Duke Maddog]

Thanks Sharkman! I'd be interested in the best way to fix that plane.

Thanks Paul! Preach it man! If I had my Hobby Days back, I would have a bigger bench, but until all this ends, it ain't gonna happen.

A nuclear sub, MiG-15 and an extremely messy desk. I'll maybe look into tidying things up a bit tomorrow before the Memorial Weekend Blitzbuild kicks off at 1600.

 

[Duke Maddog]

Nice Chris! I like all those. Your bench looks like mine too.

Just spent an hour & a half trying to reclaim some workspace. I suspect it’ll last a whole 15 minutes once I get into the next project.

Now that's a nice view! You can watch the critter's scamperin' around while you're modeling.

 

[Iron Mike]

One of the necessities from time to time.

 

[Duke Maddog]

Oh man what a fantastic view!

Chris,
Beautiful view.
I have been trying to finish up this motley crew.
I have been making great headway.

All look like a lot of fun! Love it! Bring them home Frank!

There's also three 1:48 aircraft builds happening. Actively working on the M3 and the Panther, the other two are just spectators at the moment.


Have a great weekend, folks. Best from NZ.

Ian.

 

[Frank]

Ian,
Looking good.

I did a little poking around on the gear for the RF-4. Also got the exhaust areas on the fuselage painted. In looking at references, I noticed they pretty much always had the inner pylons on.....even if they weren't being utilized. So ended up doing some careful locating and drilling of pin holes, and painting said pylons. The most visual update though is the SSN is now in color. Hopefully some gloss and decals in the next couple days.

 

[helios]

Decal time!

[Duke Maddog]

Beautiful work!

 

[Jeeves]

Getting there on my figure for the figure build...

Ok, so this one is more of a "What's Off The Bench"...

Just finished the USS Bluefish. My dad served aboard her when she was launched in the '70s. When I saw the kit for a short hull Sturgeon Class in Seattle a couple years ago, I knew I had to have it. This will eventually get boxed up and shipped to the old man.
