"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, 17th February*

** 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 subject each week. This will prevent prolific builders from dominating this segment and will prevent this part of the show from becoming too long.

04). You can post 2 works in progress builds per member each week. Again, this prevents prolific builders from dominating this segment and making this segment longer than it needs to be.

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.

The winner will have their model displayed on the Paul@ism live stream header

We thank you in advance for allowing us the opportunity to showcase your models!
Paul and the live crew

First of this weeks 2 projects is Italeri's Airspeed Horsa - first of a 2-plane diorama (second will be a Short Stirling tug) in memory of my Dad who was a qualified Horsa pilot - amongst other things - in WW2.
Photo shows the main components ready to assemble once the lead weights arrive to add 20g to the nose section. Its been a pleasant build thus far.

Second project this week is the 1980's Matchbox release of the Handley Page Heyford. Bought 2nd hand from eBay - seller forgot to mention it had been started. Most parts are covered in a thick primer, one part was missing and the decal sheet was a wreck. Luckily there is an option that doesn't need the missing part and I found a seller offering a replacement decal sheet. Worst thing so far is the wing surfaces are badly warped either through age, improper storage or both.
