SPA Modeler

Thanks Carlos! Yes, I am supposed to rest, and this has actually been pretty restful.

Thanks Medic!

Thanks Bruce! The underside of the Mitsubishi F-2A in pic #23 is actually Testor's Model Master Intermediate Blue. I did not use a primer on this plane. The lights kinda washed out the color making it look more grey than Intermediate Blue. Parts of the topside of this plane will also be this color, surrounding the Navy Blue patches above. In the lighting shown, it does look like a Star Wars color indeed.

This week due to some complications, I haven't get anything done in my Hobby Room. I hope things improve enough for me to get back to it later. Stay tuned, more to come.

Great stuff Mark. You are right on the F-2 it is a two tone blue. The radome is a light grey.

Thanks John! I'm thrilled to have confirmation. For the nose cone, I used a dark gull grey. It does look fairly light next to the two blues.

Stay tuned, more to come, hopefully soon.

You;re welcome Bruce. Maybe someday soon I'll be able to get back to these.

I bought this set from mr color has the two blues and the radome grey

That's interesting John, I didn't know that was out there. I already have the thing painted and clearcoated now, so I just have to decal it. I do have a second one in the box (it was a two-kit set) so I might have to look for that set to paint the second one with.

I did manage to get a little done on the Hobby Room, so I might have some pics soon.

Sorry I haven't checked in for a while Mark - Life's been rather hectic and up in the air. I hope you're still fighting and winning.

Too much good work on here to comment on - all superb! I'm loving the selection of aircraft you;re building at the moment.



Cheers!

Thanks Stuart! I've only lately been able to get to the bench, working a little at a time on several models. I'm going to try to post pics later.

As for my health situation, after a very rough beginning of the week the previous week; I was able to stay home, sleep most of the time and relax the rest of the time. I allowed myself to be as lazy as possible, but the improvement was dramatic! I almost feel normal. I've even started back on some soft foods now and I've got a couple small jobs lined up for after the fourth as a test to see how well I'm doing.

Okay, stay tuned, pics forthcoming...

Glad to see that you're feeling better. Still take it easy and don't rush back into things.
