Yesterday’s Salt Fadi g test was a success, and today we’ve got flaps installed, gents!
Salt Fading In-Production happens this afternoon!

I'm sure it's awesome - but for some reason I can't see the pictures...
As an aside - what in God's name has happened to your Avatar?

Oh no! Can you see this one:
And yeah, I switched it to a pic of Jeff Spicoli. The movie “Fast Times At ridgemont High” came up in conversation the other day, and I thought it’d be funny to use old Spicoli as my avatar

Ah cool - I've not seen that film but it's a cool Avatar!
Now THAT is a nice looking build (now I can see it) - very nice work indeed!

Thanks!
She got spritzed and the first coat of salt is applied. Just waiting for it to dry, now. I’ll be on a teleconference for the next hour or so, so that’ll be plenty of time.

Yeah, Sean Penn may be a real Adam Henry, but his role of Jeff Spicoli is a classic!

Since I’m here and you’re here, doesn’t that make it our time? Surely there’s nothing wrong with a little feast on our time...

One of these days I plan on being this good with the weathering. Looks fantastic Kenny.

Ahhhh... can't really make out the salt fading from this distance but the weathering on the Corsair looks amazing.

Hasn’t happened yet. I’m prepping that now. Waiting for the water to dry.
