Some nice detail work as usual going on there Uncle Tony! Glad you got some rain, hopefully not too much all at once.

Pretty awesome detail painting. Shaky you say? Maybe that's part of the technique!

Tony I really need to say thanks you to you. Thank you. Not sure where I read it but you were talking about Tix solder and flux... at least I think it was you . Anyway... I had forgotten I bought the flux ages ago to try it out. Just did and the stuff is great. Doing exactly as i did before and got terrible result, now I got to watch the solder melt and get sucked right into the joint i was working on.

This is looking great Tony. I especially like the British FEs. Those are going to look pretty slick against the interior especially after the weathering that is to come. The interior of your SPGs have never disappointed. How is Ma Natures schizo-affective behavior treating you out there? I actually had a day where I fired up the bike and was able to ride with summer weight gloves. Now we're back to the rain festival. Dave

Guys you smell paint alright but it's green. I had a job pending before I could fit some tracks. You bet it was me that suggested the high priced spread WN because it's worth every penny. Dave the system that came through here the other day is headed to the east coast and won't be missed. It's been cold day,warm day,cold day, warm day and it's been pretty nice for the last two days in a row. Maybe the ground hog was right this time. Just havin FUN Tony lee

Hey Gang, man has it been a good day or what? It's warmed up (62degrees) and the sun is shining plus the snow is GONE Gone gone. After getting the SU-152 tracks on I got the Sexton back on the bench. The rest of the base color is applied and she's on her feet. I hope your day went well for you too. Tony lee

Nope Carl it ain't GREEN and I don't get sick working on this one. So today I installed the headlights/guards,drivers view port cover,front tow hitches,fit the tracks and paint all the tools as well as some detail painting on the gun. The sun is shining and it warmed up to around 43 degrees, not a heat wave but not freezing at least. Tony lee

I am afraid that Sexton will be much sexier than Uncle Tony? Snowed heavily last night... heavy wet snow everywhere... result? Pulled my back while shoveling. Isn't life good?

Post by tonylee on Mar 6, 2013 18:32:09 GMT -5
It should be sexier, it's younger than I am. The plan is to paint those DS tracks tomorrow. I had to take three links out of the Priest set but these fit almost perfect right out of the box. Thank you folks Tony lee
