Shiny with a white nose

I'm nearly ready for some decals. A few coats of of Klear have been sprayed on and as you can see it now has the white nose. The green anti glare panel is supplied as two decals so I'm going to use them instead of masking and spraying it. The only thing stopping me at the moment - WORK !

Oh well I'll have to get up in the morning and be productive for a change.

My first little one

The Airfix ambulance was actually bought by my wife because it was in the sale. I have to admit it sat in my stash for ages. Then one day I thought I would have a go at it. The Tornado is the hasegawa kit. The hawk is a bit of a mish mash , it's my version of the T2 in use with the RAF at the moment.

Never built

I've never made a model of a F104. So here is my attempt of the Italeri kit. The kit is a G but I've turned it into an Italian S version. The only real external differences I can see are the cannon port fared over and the addition of two ventral strakes.

Well what happened in 2012 ?

Well lots actually. I've strayed away from 1/48 everything. Got my first Iwata airbrush, and I still can't use lifecolour paints.

trouble at the table

Well I've got the F16 out of the box. I got this for a good price from a friend who had started putting bits together. This is where the problem starts. The parts that have been put together are not shall we say , hmm good. So cue me taking all the bits I could back apart. I've had a few choices taken away from me such as, the gun now has to be closed up. The lower half has had been plastered in filler so I've had to sand that all away, and the intake has been fitted so I've got to try and somehow fill the seams down the sides whilst its already fitted.

big boy up next

I've really been looking forward to building this one . I don't have a clue where I'm going to put it when It's finished. Researching the F-16 has thrown up lots of questions, some that I still don't have the answers for. The one thing I do know is that I'm going to put a pilot in this one. I also have some resin goodies for it.
