Thank you both, most sincerely. Also—since you both are part of the interviews. I checked whether or not the Scale Plastic Aircraft Modeler Facebook is visible without logging into FB and it is. You both should be able to see the new posts without signing up, let me know. Cheers!

I went over to check it out you can see the front page but click on anything and it wants you to log in

Clint, That’s how it’s set up, but you can see the posts. The first interview will be published on Friday, April 5. Subsequent interviews will be published on Fridays after that. One interview each week.

Aaaaand I'm awake..

Great looking cockpit Bruce!

I am glad one of us is awake, Stuart. Truly. Thanks for your comments. You have been missed. It’s always a pleasure to know you’re around. Cheers, mate.

Building a nice final sheen of “Gris-Gris” Duo Oil Paint over the quite weathered enamel finish. Very subtle. But the effect of light on surface is regained.

Ah! I like the effect you got with the oil very much! Also- I’m happy to see you working in oil paint. Lovely result.

Yeah that cockpit looks great!

Thenk you both! I definitely learn from everyone’s thoughts, techniques and perspectives here. I think that is why we are all here to an extant.

Ken—your oil filtering/shading/blending techniques are my mantra these days. I am so grateful you shared those ideas here.

Mike—likewise I feel I learn so much watching your builds come together. The Warthog canon is definitely a mini-masterpiece.

I know everyone works hard, and I definitely want to acknowledge everyone here for following the very long adventures of my slow building. I do plan to speed build something in the future. Channel my inner Cherrylock or BSY and knock a kit out fast. Just to break the way I think. It’s good to have a dream, lol!

[Handiabled]

You have a great eye for "just right" weathering of your builds. This is shaping up to be another wonderful bird!

Brent—Thank you so much. I sincerely appreciate your comments. I have to add, “Right back at you,” because your finish of ZM’s Horten has a level of authority to it that is mindful of its past as a functional machine. That is a truly unique approach. I wrote Mustang that I found thinking of stock car interiors created a context for me. Do you do something like that? Cheers!
