Hey,Sarge....Long time no visit,for that my apologies..  ....When I saw you start this thread,my thoughts were..'If anyone can do this,it'll be Bob'!!! But it looks like it's been fighting you all the way,my friend!  I am sure you will prevail,cos I think I've only ever seen you 'shelve' one project,since I've known you? |

CB - No worries buddy, I appreciate the vote of confidence. Sorry for the absence gents. Started a new job so Im back in IT work now....thank the Almighty, so I have been pretty busy with that and also busy........SANDING! I was getting close to almost wrapping it up so I fitted the canopy frame to the F15 that will be displayed in flight...........OMG! I saw this and broke out the Thorazine.........LOL.  This is so bad I have been trying to fix this for over a week.Even though that huge gap needs to be filled and shaped, the canopy is still short in the front by a lot       So while working on that I started on the other F15 and OMG! not again.    Ejection seats painted and awaiting PE parts. Fuel tanks completed and sanding as well, Missiles drying with primer on them in the booth. When I wrap this EPIC sanding party up I can paint and decal................(banging head on table) Stay tuned Bob |

WOW, now that's what I call some serious gaps Bob! Fortunately you've banged your head enough on the table to pull it off. Congrats on the return to the IT world too! That reminds me, don't let the servers get too hot...  |

Well Brother Bob,
With you head intent on splitting the table, I shall get lots of meds ready for myself when I tackle this beastie in my stash. Though, I must say, from this vantage point you certainly have shown the styrene who has the bigger brain pan.

Andy - I make NO promises LOL Ok so sanding is done because there isn't much plastic left to sand. If any of you have this kit, you have been warned. Canopy issue fixed:  PAINT.......I SEE PAINT    left some creases in the tanks as these get beat up a bit.  Almost there  Bob |

Andy - had to match the camo on The Generals F-15. Did the best I could and the client who was presenting them to him loved it, said it was a match.

Outstanding work brother. I don't think it's a case of CRS as much as it is trying to keep too many plates up and spinning.
