I joined my first Group Build after being on this forum for years. My Shelf Of Doom build has really lived up to its name, but I digress. One of the things I like most about the group builds is the collective displaying of progress. I really like seeing peoples work and sharing. I've done a few build threads but they require a bit of effort and I'm not always up for sharing the entire process, but then again, there are times I'd like to post a couple things I've been working on without spooling up a new thread. So I thought maybe a thread like this would be place to post piece meal work from time to time.
Anyhow - here's a couple of things I have in the works:
Hasesgawa 1/48 F-14A adding some Verlinden bits. Man I thought Hasegawa could do no wrong but this kit is a bit challenging. Metal hubs and rubber tires are cool. Did my ordanance (yellowed decals )
Office about complete - Verlinden ejection seats. Bit of weathering next.
I'm also working on a Roden T-28B and its the first time I'm using the Eduard pre-painted peel and stick PE. I'm on the fence here - I really like painting and detailing cockpits so it's like exchanging fiddly bits for detailing. Overall looks kinda cool, just not sure I'd do it again
I'm also working on Tamiya's 1/48 F4F-4 and trying my hand at pre-black'ing (is that the right term?) the cockpit - tip from this forum BTW. I shot everything in flat black, then misted on interior green. I'm liking it so far
Anyhow - I like seeing other folks progress, so if you're not up for a build thread but have something incremental or cool to post let's see it!
