Had to take a little breather after that Pedro but

Happy anniverary Swanny, looking amazing as always can't wait to see it done!

Lookin good and steady! Congratulations on your anniversary, Swanny!

You're a madman, Swanny! Is that the Monogram 1/48 B-26?

And happy anniversary!

happy anniversary, great plane, and great work. I was looking on your web site and man you blow my mind with your work. I hope i don't get suspended for the virgin nose art.

Happy Anniversary Swannhy. I enjoyed reading your article on the build on that other forum. Nice work. The Marauder's looking good.

This one will be OD/NG with salt technique paint chipping. The Revell will be NMF, either Alclad or BMF - haven't decided yet.

Happy anniversary, Swanny !
Are you painting this one OD/Neutral gray, or NMF ? I've got the Monogram kit with the resin interior. I started to rescribe, so there's no turning back now. Probably never finish that one.

Quarmyre - I generally use an automotive grade medium tack masking tape cut into thin strips, sometimes I will also use a liquid making solution with it. When I have large greenhouses to do and can find Black Magic sets for them I will go that way. For this one the bomb sight window detail was so soft on the nose that I used a piece of Bare Matal Foil to mask that area then continued with masking tape.

Nmayhew - yes, saw it - thank you very much.

Kik36 - yes but my boss may have a comment on that


KJ200 - you remember that movie "The Girl, The Gold Watch and Everything"?

Everyone else - thanks - you guys keep me motivated.

Looking GOOD

Where do you find the time?

Have you got a secret stash of time somewhere?

Happy anniversary and good job on the Marauder. It looks great

Congrats Swanny. I've got 8 months to go before I take the plunge. Hope it lasts as long as yours.

And way to go on getting another plane out. You're a machine!

Anyhoo, might I ask Swanny what you use for masking the clear parts? I've tried tons o' stuff (tapes, gels, etc.) and never end up with the results I see on your models.

Happy Anniversary Swanny!!! It's best to keep the wife happy, and put off the painting for one day. BTW....do you work?!! LOL I'm still reeling from Pedro, waiting for an airbrush, and here you go again showing off!!!!

Congratulations, Swanny!! Happy anniversary!!!!
By the way. The models looking good, too!!!!
