We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Amazing work, there ! 
Re: Another batch-o-birds
An update on those three Hellcats would be kinda nice and all...just sayin...
Re: Another batch-o-birds
Well....I had hoped to have them done this past Monday....but got called in to the airport to help fix a jacked up hanger door (Hell of a job....damn heavy!!!), then got asked to come in yesterday and today to help fix all kinds of things/heavy equipment to be prepared for winter work.
Lucky Monday for me!!! We had a deer get inside the fence....HUGE liability! Were he happened to be, there was only one safe shot, from 140 yards away, with a 45mph gusting wind...one shot, one kill!!!

This was also there!!!

Anyway....got some of the fiddlies done on Sunday...still got a bit more to do, then flat coat and finish weathering.

Sweet, that's a hell of a shot, especially if you were hovering in that Sea King!Fermis wrote:Well....I had hoped to have them done this past Monday....but got called in to the airport to help fix a jacked up hanger door (Hell of a job....damn heavy!!!), then got asked to come in yesterday and today to help fix all kinds of things/heavy equipment to be prepared for winter work.

Speaking of Sea Kings, didn't you do the Dragon one in 72nd scale awhile back???
Some background on those 'Cat schemes would be kinda nice and all...just sayin...
