SPA Modeler

Mark,
Are you making the Bat squadron or Negev squadron? I'll do whichever one you don't. I just ordered the Vallejo Israeli Air Force paint set which has all those interesting blues and yellows, should be here late next week.

Cool site Stick.
I also ordered the 1/72 IDF missile set. That might take a little while longer.

Well I happen to be working on a project that is IDF inspired but is not a plastic model... Will be watching this mini GB though!

Thanks Carlos. That is a great site. I need to definitely return to that to see what else I can add to my Israeli Defense Force.

MC, I'm not sure my Sufa would be accepted here. I have the assembly about 95% done; all she needs is paint. I'm waiting on some masking agent to get started on painting it.

Mark, I haven't stated yet but did receive the paint set today. I should be able to start on it tomorrow. It may take a while to get the weapons set.

I'm in with a 1/72 Hase Sufa.

I'll start on it as soon as I can get the paints together.

Cool! I have mine almost fully built. I just need to finish masking the canopy and then I can shoot paint.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours. I don't know what I could enter for this....

Umm Mark you've been doing the Sufa for this GB for the last year

Hey Stuart what's the timeframe for this? I have a Kfir but have a few other projects going first

OMG!!! I totally forgot! Man, what an idiot I am!

Okay, that settles that. Did I also start the Nagmachion for this too? I've been doing that as well. Man, I need a secretary to keep track of these things.

Man I'd forgotten all about this - Mainly because both my builds ended up in the bin!

Um... No time frames as such - Go for it!

Okay, here's my latest update for this Group Build...

Here it is. I finally got the canopy, exhaust and wheel wells masked off:





Later, when I was painting everything, I shot an upper base color on this. It is Testor's Israeli Armor Sand:



That base coat showed me where a lot of gaps and seams were so I filled them in:






Okay, that's it so far. I also updated my Manufacturing Thread so feel free to check it out too.
