"WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING ON THIS WEEK?" - A NEW SEGMENT OF FRIDAY NIGHT'S ISM LIVE "AT THE BENCH" SHOW!

* Open now until 1 hour before the show on Friday, May 5th*

** PLEASE read ALL of the rules below carefully! **

Hello everyone! This post is being created to give you, as a member of ISM, the opportunity to share what you have been working on during the week on the Friday night show. Please read the rules below in order to participate.

01). By participating in this thread, you are giving permission for the ISM live crew to share your work during the Youtube broadcast of the ISM Live "At the Bench" Friday show.

02). Please, only post your own work and not that of others.

03). Remember, post only one image per member each week. This will prevent prolific builders from dominating this segment and will prevent this part of the show from becoming too long.

04). Also, have only one project shown in the image per member each week. Again, this prevents prolific builders from dominating this segment and making this segment longer than it needs to be.

05). Along with your image, please include the following details: The name of the kit; the company that produces the kit; any aftermarket that you have added, along with the brands and colors of paint used (if applicable).

06). The deadline for entries each week will be between the time the post goes up until an hour before Friday's show. Entries made after the deadline will not be shown.

07). Remember: If you wish to have a project highlighted during the show, the image and information must be shared in this thread, not a separate post on the Facebook page!

08). There will be a posted thread similar to this one on the ISM Forums. PLEASE post your work only in ONE of these. This will prevent us from having to sort through duplicate posts on both sites.

After the the live crew shows what they have been working on during the week, participating member's images and details will then be shown. This is an opportunity for you as members to be directly involved with the show. We hope that you will participate no matter your level of experience. This will not be a critique of anyone's work.

We thank you in advance for allowing us the opportunity to showcase your models! - Lee Larholt, Paul Bretland, and the rest of the ISM moderators and live crew.

Airfix 1/48 Seafire XVII. Just got a few finishing touches to do. Very nice kit except for the wing fold which is virtually 'glue where it touches', there are no real location points so it's a bit of a delicate balancing affair until the glue sets.

I wasn't sure about posting this one, but since I've seen a few people saying they're in need of an easy mojo-builder then this is what's done it for me. These are from the Bandai R2-D2 & R5-D4 set and have been put together for the most part without glue or paint and using the stickers rather than the decals. The only modification was to remove a panel on R5 to fit the bad motivator (nicked from one of the attachment arms) and add the cotton wool. There's one nasty join on the dome of R2 that I'd fill if I was building properly and there are a couple of places where I want to pick out some detail with paint and replace some of the smaller stickers, and may add some weathering but overall really happy with them out of the box for something quick and easy. Each beepy droid took about 90 minutes and I've got C-3PO to build and then I'll put them all on a simple base - this was my original plan for Lysus's robot SIG but just didn't get time to get it started.

Highly recommended for some light relief and probably for a dad'n'lad (or daughter) build as there isn't too much fiddly stuff.

Aitfix 1:24 Hawker Typhoon.

Love this kit, its been a joy to build right upto the wings, then not so fun. wings are in a mess, don't know if just my kit or they have a issue with the molds, wings covered in flash and parts of the mold not complete, heavy pitting in the leading edge with big pits towards the end, filler and lots of repairs still to do and a mountain of scribe and rivet work to do to make right. Its a big old beast with a wing span of 21inches!

Used Ultimate primers, and Vallejo and Tamiya paints and aclad metals.Ammo washes

Have a great show gents!
