Stunning builds all around Mark - The A-10 is looking great and I love those Tomcats.

The Cobras are looking good, what do you think of the Tiger kit?

Thanks Stuart! I am enjoying the HAP Tigre kit; it fits together fairly well. I do have a small issue above the tail boom, but it should be resolved with some acrylic putty.

Thanks again for the great comments.

Thanks Joe! Sometimes I go into my hobby room and I'm almost overwhelmed at all the projects on it. Then I pick one up and start working on it and the progress starts flowing again.

Now I I could just get over this cold, I'll be able to go at it again....

Thanks Bruce. Been doing most of that already; only using Listerine instead of salt water. I also have dressed in several layers of clothing; wrapped myself in a couple blankets and took Nyquill to sleep though and sweat this thing out. It is uncomfortable as all get-out waking up soaking wet, but then I douse myself with more Nyquill and do it all over again. What a stench I have created! Usually two or three days of that and I am able to wipe out almost all vestiges of the cold.

Okay, onwards we march.....

Thanks Joe. My commiserations my friend; I hate being sick and I know you do too. I always feel like a train that has been shunted to a side rail and stopped while the rest of the world passes by! I hate that feeling too!

I'll be praying you get better and stay better. Your work is too good to be delayed by illness.

Stay tuned, gonna try to do something in my hobby room today.

I know the feeling—I think we all do, Mark—I always try to read when I am sick. Just an hour but if I do that I feel better. Also—keep the positive mindset. That does you credit. Mainly just rest and heal. You are amongst friends!

Thanks you Bruce. I did mange to get a little done before succumbing to the effects of my meds and falling asleep. Too small an update to post pics of so I'm gonna try again today. Not for long; my first radiation treatment starts tomorrow and I'll need to get up and 4:30 AM to get down to Irvine in time for it.
