SPA Modeler

Thanks guys! Back to work after surgery, and again back to the I have no damn time to be at the bench. I'm a little irritated, got that nice room all set up, and I'm never in there.

So I got to a point where I just wanted to get this thing done. It's been on my bench since November. My chipping didn't go as well as planned, my own fault. I should have sprayed it with hairspray again before painting. I think it dried way too long, and the paint wouldn't budge. Oh well. It wouldn...

Thanks! It's been a long time coming. I started at the dining room table almost ten years ago, lol. I do have quite the hoard of Whiskey 7 stuff.

That's no fun. I have no issues changing image hosting sites, as long as it's free, and easy to use. Bit of progress over the last few days. I've gotten to the point where I'm just going to cover up my screw ups with weathering. I can't sit there and try to re-scribe anymore, lol. Decided to do some...

Not a problem! Thanks! I'll use postimages from now on to put pics up.

Very sorry to hear of all the crap you've been through in the past few years, that really does suck. Best wishes to you for a speedy recovery. I'm sure the build is fab, but alas due to bloody imgur blocking the UK, I can't see it. Cool subject though. You'll have to let me know if you can see pics...

Great interview, Christina. I, too had the chance to see Whiskey 7 at the Geneseo Air Show around 2012 or 2013. I paid for my son who was about 9 or 10 yrs old for a small admission to step inside Whiskey 7. I didn’t go in. I wanted to give my son an opportunity to step inside a WW2 aircraft. Since...

Great stuff Christina and Bruce! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: Hard to believe that you started in the hobby so recently with the quality of the work that you have turned out. :hmm: Its always a pleasure to see your projects in progress and how they finish. Nearly ten years. Seems lik...

Just the picture, it was trashed a long time ago, lol. I have a lot that have been sent to the curb. Excuse to build new ones, lol.

Thanks everyone! Now I just need to find the time to get back at the bench! I will have some time in March. I go for my second surgery on the 10th, and the surgeon wants me off work for two weeks. It'll be a simple surgery, but with my job, and the fact that the skin in that area is numb, he doesn't...
