SPA Modeler

Damn if you two are not pulling off these surgeries quite nicely!

We are trying our best. This time it is great that we are directly in contact, Carlos. So I don't have to force Bruce to send you images of my stuff.
The surgeries... We are not at the end. A lot to do ahaed...

Oh man, I feel so inadequate! Watching this is like being in an elementary school football team and showing up to play in the Super Bowl! Wow, I am truly not worthy!

A great bit of surgery you two!

Marius, Bruce, you two are rocking this pair!

I've been missing a very cool lil' build here! You're really givin' this one the works Bruce!!!

You should not feel inadequate! Remember we have a long way to go. Not a finished Heinkel in our hands. The good thing I have learned so far is that researching and especially finding solutions is much easier if a friend is working on the same topic. I really appreciate this kind of doing a model. If we are successful, both, we should focus on Pt. 2.
Currently I am thinking of a Monogram Zero in 48 which I bought some years ago in Salt Lake City....

Yepp, Bruce is definitely the project leader!

First, thanks to everyone who is following! Second, Happy Father’s Day (U.S.) to all fathers following! Gents, apologies but I have been busy cleaning out my apartment, so that means a delay, well several days’ worth of delays, on my end. I am grateful to all, would like to thank Joe, Mark, Carlos for responding so positively. Thank you so very much. Personally, I feel there is nothing we are doing in terms of mods that the three of you cannot do. In fact, it was Joe who taught me how to sand properly. I used to use two grits and call it a day, but it was Joe’s sage advice to use higher grits properly, and above all to take one’s time with the finishing. Duke Mark, I believe I may have learned more from watching you build than from everyone, because you are absolutely fearless when it comes to building. From you specifically I learned when to stop and switch gears. Before following your work I would keep grinding away on one project in a single session until I either succeeded or failed. Now thanks to you I know much better. Finally, to Carlos I have learned how to patch pieces of styrene. This is truly one of the greatest gifts I have received as a model builder.

So. Simply put:

Thank you.
