Thanks gents. I see a casting seam or two that needs cleaning up, no surprises there. The canvas cover attachment has been finessed a bit and lays flat enough on the turret roof to stick down with CA. I'm going to paint that assembly and try to deal with those tiny Grandt line nuts just to see how it'll look.

I think I've found a finish paint; it's the Model Master RLM 81 enamel. It sure looks close enough to the dark green I'm envisioning.

I'm far enough along on my new workshop that I can start decongesting what will become the dedicated plastic model building area in my first workshop. I moved out the big table that was optimised for large R/C model building and built a new bench that extends my plastic modeling bench 80 more inches, 33 inches deep as is the existing bench. It is topped with ceiling tile and then glass. I have plenty of glass as I years ago took on the remaining inventory from a company that was going out of the pay phone booth business. Still have 4 or 5 unused panes of 1/4 inch tempered glass. Probably I will use the rest as shelves for future display cases. The old bench served both R/C and plastic models and was also where my photo backdrop was, and it seemed like every time I had set up for photos that I needed to do something requiring that space. The new bench setup makes it so I can have 3 or 4 model projects going at once and the photo setup is now on the wall so I can just roll it up if I need the bench space.

I've already used the new photo setup. Yesterday a box came in the mail and I had no idea what it might be. Turned out to be the 1/48 Tamiya F-4 which I had ordered in the last week of December, just now arriving. I had forgotten all about it.

I think pretty soon I may be able to finish up some models. Laid out on the bench are the nearly done figures from the Airfix Hurricane Ready For Battle set, the 1/72 Italeri B-26K awaiting decals, two Eduard 1/48 Yak 3's, a Hobbycraft Sea Fury my grandson is building, the Hobbycraft 1/48 Arrow, and a Pegasus Martin Baker MB.5.

Wonderful kit John, I would need to continue with my Tamiyas Phantom, a build I started some months ago, or actually soon a year ago
