SPA Modeler

Mr. Medic Man- Thank you sir!

Black sheep- And thank you!

Bruce- Thank you, my man. I’m really glad I went back and the-did all that. And I’m doing so Inhave indeed become more fond of this particular subject. And it’s nice when that happens.

Stewart- Thank you! I want to shoot paint at that engine so badly HAHAAA I’ve been looking forward to trying to build it for a long time!

I've been sitting on a Hellcat in my stash forever. Seeing your great work is inspiring me to give it a look.... Watching for more!

Brother, if you did that, I’d follow that build first thing in the morning every day!

I have the same kit, started it but never finished it so it’s still in the box. Yours is looking great!

Looking great Kenny! Your side panels look fantastic. This is coming along very nicely man; I'm looking forward to seeing the engine!

Thank you, PL, and Duke! And Duke, this one’s for you buddy, here we go:





I have installed the ignition ring and cover on the old crank case.

I plan on priming this, painting it, and then installing the cylinder heads after they’ve been painted. I’m going to do them one at a time and wire each one up individually, and see how that sequence works for me.

looks like some form of mad marine creature from Startrek...

Same wavelength as Stuart, apparently! Great!

Great work, Ken.
This could be a useful weathering stage for your magnificent bird:

Bruce and Stewart,

Thank you and yes it sure does! It could even be Lovecraftian, if you’re into that sort of thing I suppose. My Hellcat is gonna have a Shoggoth under the cowling!

Mos-

Thank you! I saw that video earlier today and I think that technique adds a whole lot to the overall realism he’s getting with his model. I’ll happily try that.
