This Blond could really give you a workout

Posted by Swanny on Wednesday, January 28, 2004 6:21 PM

Ya'll fell for that sexual allure thing again, didn't ya?
Good news is there really is a Blond involved in this string ....

Just in case you haven't seen any of many previous posts on this build here's the stats:

ESCI 1/48 B-26B Marauder
Salt chip paint method
Cutting Edge decals
Futured and will get some panel line work next.

As this one nears completion the next project begins. What's that, you ask? Next is an all resin kit from ARBA, the DeHavilland DH-108 high speed research aircraft. The first turbojet to break the sound barrier.

aha... she's seen some action, and shows some scars... I like it Swanny. How'd the salt behave for you? Did you use it the same way they described it a few months back in FSM?

The salt process behaved pretty much as described in the magazine - was very easy.
I'm still working on the feature for the web site - hope to have it posted by end of this week or early next week.

72cuda, I guess you have been out of the loop. I finished the Pedro on the 19th, updated my website and the construction feature already showed up on Hyperscale.com as a feature.
