This week Mathew while waiting for things to dry on the church I have been playing with my figures.

The figure is a US paratrooper in 1.35 scale from China, I have had to modify it by cutting and reposition the feet at the ankles, the head at the neck and finally the left arm require major surgery. Very nervous as first time at doing this to any figures but happy so far.

With the addition of the parachute straps using some PE belts which will be modified also.

Still moving forward on my 1/144 A-10A from LS. I have gained new respect for those who model this small scale and render an accurate model. So far, in my build, I added an after market detailed interior; removed the aileron/air brakes and fowler flaps; opened the panel for the pilot ladder; opened the COMM / Test panel; opened one of the electronics panels on the right of the fuselage; and then removed and posed the rear elevators. Afterwards I created and added extended the fowler flaps to show them in the open position; created and opened the air brakes; created an electronics internal bay with components; removed the tip of the left wing wheel pylon to show the refueling port and created its replacement tip. Here are some photos just prior to a base coat and green European camouflage being applied.









I am currently working on the ordnance and landing gear. I have ordered new decals, a hard stand base, and 1/144 figures to complete the build.

Mostly this week I have been working on a solution to wheels.
Wheels, wheels, and more wheels, but I`ve fine tuned my tankomatic seam remover.
I`ve altered the phased motor so it now goes to 11 and pulled all the wheel from my stash to sand in one go.
Have a good show guys.

Top image is the AMK Mig-31 BM/BSM. Main Decals are done, and some stencil data started. The decals are a treat to lay down. The bottom two images is my first foray into World War 1 planes. Unpainted at the moment but if you could tell by the instructions that the engine is sitting on, you would know the kit manufacturer, but if you are wondering the kit itself it is the Junkers D.1. For those who didn't know, its the Wingnut Wings in 1/32 scale. The Mig was painted in XF-19 Sky Grey, and Vallejo Basalt Gray. Micro Set and Micro Sol solutions were used for the decals.

Still picking away at the joker bust managed to get his eyes done last week on the show, I used some red cotton thread pulled apart to make it very fine and then placed on the eyes and set in place with Aqua gloss he's still got a ways too go but most of the scary stuff is done

Thanks for all the comments about the X-Wing last week folks!

Back to earth with a bump for this week as we return to Valom's finest 1/72 Bristol Buckingham. What can I say... stuck some bits together, some bits fit, some bits didn't... filling n sandin blah blah blah. This week's highlights included the revelation that there are four engine cowlings included with the kit all with the same part numbers and I picked the wrong ones so they had to be reassembled (more than once), and also that the main gear legs don't fit into the gap available in the nacelles. So those along with some more filling and sanding will be the jobs for this coming weekend. There's a hope it might even be in primer soon as some mad Canadian dentist says we've only got until the end of August to get it done!

When I started on this I was enjoying the challenge, now it's just sheer bloody-mindedness to not "do a Norman" with the thing!

More work this week on the Trumpeter 1/35 PLA ZBD-86B IFV which I was building from last weeks live show, the model is 80% built, with just a few more parts to be cleaned up before going to the spray booth. overall not a bad kit, really been enjoying the build so far.

Here is the second of my Regional Australian Fokker Friendships, this time flying with Trans Australia Airlines which flew some in outback Queensland in the 1960s. It's the Doyusha (let me say that again, 'Doyusha') 1/144 kit, almost all the paint is decanted Tamiya rattle can - white primer, TS-26, TS-17, TS-83 and AS-12 and my own mix to make Fokker Grey. The propellers are SMS Neutral Grey and the tips MRP-132 Marker Yellow. The decals are from Hawkeye. What more can I say.

Found this Revell 1962 Corvette on my shelf of doom last weekend. Most things where done, just needed a coat of clear, some detail painting and assembly. I've given the body a couple of coats of Zero Paints 2k clear and redone some of the chrome with MR Paints chrome which is my new favorite chrome paint. Hope to get this done pretty quick, as long as I can find a replacement steering column as the kit one has diapered since I put the kit away a couple of years ago.
