Thanks T! I saw the guys starting to comment on it and I just didn't want to steal your thread.  I'm doing my best to help keep you focused! LOL! ;D I can just feel that ever time you start it, you're going, I wonder if I put some rust here or some bullet holes here.....! LOL!! Take your time bud, all is good! |

LOL...I suppose it doesn't sound right when you read it that way Dicky!! Yup, the non-floaty is land based!! ;D OK, finally a little update. I managed to finish slapping the engine together...even managed to squirt down some primer. With any luck I can start assembling some big pieces next!!   As always, thanks for stopping by for a bit!! |

Thanks guys!! Tis a bit shinny at the moment. Got a couple different coats going on tonight and then some detail painting and this will shape up some!! Wouts...Alclad Chrome. Base of shinny black and then a couplpe quick mists of the chrome and this is how it comes out!! I think the heads look pretty good. Once the small details are picked out it might just look like an engine!! LOL!! Yeah Pete...LOL...That big whote spot is one of the lights I use! Great stuff there Brotha'!! Love Alclad!! |

Thanks Gents, the encouragement is always appreciated!! The smallest of updates, but still moving forward...  Some Alclad Burnt Metal, Serpia and a touch of Violet for good measure. Laying some color on some parts now. Thank for having a LQQY!! |

Thank you Wouts and Ian!! Appreciate the words of encouragement! Getting there sloooooowly.     That is that for the moment. I am figuring on the next steps and working on 100 things else. I have opened my eyes a bit recently. An there are a couple of smaller projects that do need to be completed...FW being one and something similar I started way back that may rear its ugly head soon!! Thanks for tuning in!! |

Oh my! looking good T! As I'm looking at the fuselage the file folders started flipping, test fit the turret to see how snug it is. When I build mine the turret was a bit of a bear to put in.I almost popped the fuselage. Whats you plan for the 190? I found a cool paint scheme that I'm gonna do when I get another one. Let me know.

Thanks guys!! The encouragement is what's keeping this going. Pete...LOL...finishing the Fw is what I had in mind!!! Started it April before last for the SMA BSC and gave up as the F-250 took president at the time. Taking this on is helping with revival of the so called Butcher Bird. The wild card is a secondary one I started a ways back for a mini Dio of a pic I have of my Grandfather. Thinking with a little revamp job on the base and some touch up it might work...for what I do not know yet!! I got my hands on a little SBS from Accurate on the installation. Seems that was the biggest issue with the kit. Looks straight forward the way the explain it!! I will post is when I get to that part as it will be help for someone else trying to do this. Will have to wait and see!! LOL!! Boots - Thanks for swinging by and those nice words! Ya know, if I could just stick to one genre I would not get caught up in all this stuff!! LOL!!! Thank you Chris! Hitting the Tippex in a little while and I need to prep some pieces but that time is closing in!!! |
