WHAT’S ON THE BENCH
Stuart: Working on the 1/48 Tamiya Beaufighter for the group build. Great fun.
Also started work on 2 BattleTech mini’s.
Geoff. Focused on building two 1/18 3D printed “kits” supplied by the Jet Aircraft Museum of London Ontario: a Canadair F5D and a T33. The printing was very rough, but the shapes are close. Lots of sanding and scratch building are required to get close to a decent representation, but the sheer scale of these things is impressive. Rivet counters need not apply!
[foogallery id="3076"]
Terry: Finished and photographed the Halberd Models NF-51T NASA Turbo Cavalier Mustang (link to masking file) and Dora Wings’ P-43 Lancer. Now working on the two Fine Molds Ki-15 Babs and Kamikaze versions. Also working on the Moscato 1/72 F203 Dragon kit - mostly primary building and surface correction.
