Not a massive production run for 2017 but a pair of enjoyable projects nonetheless. Unlike last year, I won't have the chance to build anything over this Christmas break, so the grand total for 2017 will have to stand at 2! GWH 1/48 P-61B Black Widow  Trumpeter 1/350 Graf Spee  |

Those are 2 great looking builds for the year Bill! Hope you'll be able to get back to the bench some time.  |

Thanks Leon! In an odd twist, I actually had the chance to use my airbrush today but not for model-building...a friend of mine needed some parts for a typewriter he's restoring touched up, so we mixed up some appropriate shades and went to work. |

Nice Bill, from experience, I have learned that if you intend to build more than two kits in a year you have to stay away from ships.

Great builds... I know its only two but I believe both made huge appearances on the magazine so you should be pleased!

The Black Widow made her debut but the Graf Spee not quite yet, maybe in 2018!  Had a lot of fun with both of them, the Black Widow in particular since it was done for my dad. |
