Thank you Stuart! I thought so! But now I'm even more concerned; I replied to Bruce on "the Crew" thread and it's gone! Man, I'm either forgetting to hit the "submit" button or I'm losing my mind!
I gotta get a bigger IV needle for my morning coffee....

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.

Re: WIP reports for Monogram Mafia
Started this one. Not sure what #2 will be but this one is under way
Limited work in the cockpit - nice pit though.
Should look like this when done - doing 93477 out of Hondo
Expands my trainer squadron and gets me 1 done for the Mafia

Another favorite a/c! Can’t wait to see this.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: WIP reports for Monogram Mafia
I’ll enjoy watching the T-6 build. It’s one of the few Monogram 1/48 kits that I haven’t built yet.

Re: WIP reports for Monogram Mafia
Well, there's not much to show here, All I managed was the chassis to the 1/24 scale Packard was glued inside the fenders since anytime I tried adding additional chassis parts, the whole chassis kept breaking apart:
Hopefully, this will stay glued; this plastic is so brittle it barely holds together!

Re: WIP reports for Monogram Mafia
And another setback, or three on this! I went to see how this models sits on it's wheels and it redefined floating wheels. The rear wheel on the left side was so high, it looked like this thing was watering a fire hydrant! When I tried to fix it, the whole leaf spring assembly shattered. One step forward, five steps backward.....

Yikes! I wonder how the axle got so warped?

Tough times, Mark. Sorry about that!
John, Monogram did a good job on that T-6. I need to build another one some day.
