Just thought I'd post some pics of what's been helping to keep me occupied during this fiasco. Anyone else got any lock down builds to post?
This is Tamiya F4U-1A and according to a photo I found #95 was part of the Black Sheep Squadron but I found no other info on it.
I used Tamiya paints and black based this one. The wash and weathering were all done with pastels and colored pencils. All insignia and markings except the stencil decals are painted on. This was a fun build in Typical Tamiya fasion.
This ME 109 was one I decided for some unknown reason to use decals instead of painting insignia. Well, they sucked and I ended up letting this sit for a month or so but I cannot leave a model unfinished so I finished it up. It won't remain with me long but it was my first German build since getting back into this. I enjoyed it so I will do another and skip the decals. This is Tamiya's Bf109E-4/7 Tropical. I didn't do much weathering to speak of on this one, but it's done and now I can move on.
I'm sure plenty of folks have some lock down builds they can share as well.
