"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, April 21st*

** 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. :-)

More work on the Winter is Coming diorama for this week's update. Most of this week has been spent prepping and priming small bits which isn't overly thrilling so here's one from the results of last weekend; first off many thanks for the advice from last week's crew about the weathering on the roof. I went back and added various tones of green, brown and yellows to weather the tiles and then it snowed :) However the colour variations are visible through the light layers. The figures have been painted with a variety of Vallejo, Scale75 and Andrea colours and the slings and straps are made from 1mm masking tape. The snow is Woodland Scenics soft snow mixed in with Vallejo water effect to give an icy paste for the base layer with more Woodlands Scenics snow sprinkled on top. This coming week is the final week for the Group Build so there's six more figures to get painted and installed, as well as rubbling the interior and working some snow into the big gap where the StuG will sit - all being well I should be able to get the reveal done in time. Thanks again for all the encouragement and advice given during the Friday sessions - I can't join live but always take the time to have a look back during the following week.

I have used eduard cockpit photo etch . Im going for a well used grubby feel as research I found images from a typhoon getting a full restoration.
First attempt at model aircraft, usually tanks and bikes for me, but loving the new challenge and i see more aircraft in my future. Cockpit almost finished just last of weathering then onto the engine which i'm really looking forward to!

I have used Ultimate primer, Vallejo ally, steel, flat___alclad gloss____ Tamiya X1f black, XF49 Kahki, XF7 Red, XF68 Brown____ Ammo Mig old brass and wash

I'm a new member and loving the group and live shows! cheers Darren (aka The Mad Modeler)

Have been working on Airfix 1/48 Hurricane, has been primed with Ultimate black primer.
Has been slow progress as I've been adding some rivet detail with a Rosie the riveter tool, was my 1st time doing this so am happy with some parts not with others but I know what to differently next time. Cheers :th:

Hi guys, i've been working on a What-if design of the F-16, i call it the F/A-16W. It's based on the Hasegawa 1/72 F-16I SUFA kit.
The 1/72 F-22 Raptor wings and F-35 engine nozzle were kindly donated by Italeri kits in my stash.
Twin tails are from 2 Revell 1/72 F-16MLU kits, DSI intake is a resin conversion set made by Lonestar resin parts from Japan. Used Evergreen styrene strips and Tamiya putty to create the canard fairings on the fuselage sides and Ultimate sanders to get everything smooth.
I've used the Eduard PE Zoom set for the cockpit, which was painted with Tamiya acrylics, XF-20 light grey and XF-69 nato black.
Just some minor work to do on the nose and mask the canopy, and it's almost ready for primer.
