NATO's LanceR: a Romanian MiG21 MF in 1/48

Okay, what happened to the "rich text" button?  :(

Chuk great to see another of your masterful builds coming together. Awesome as always and I'm eagerly awaiting the next update!

Darned AWESOME work, brother!  Hey....seriously....thank you for ALL the ART you throw at us wanna-be's.....your skills encourage me to lift my game, big time!  And IT HELPS!  Thank you, mate. 

We can't wait to hoist a jar, make the clinking noise, and toast to art, models, laughter, good food and good mates.

Knock 'em dead at the Emerald City Comicon, brother. 

Hey - if any of you are near Seattle, you HAVE to go!  April 7 - 10, 2016, Washington State Convention Center, Seattle, WA!  Make  Bee-Line to Booth W-12!  This guys Art is....freakin amazing!  Trust me!  Just LOOK at the stuff he posts on FSM! And have a look at a GREAT site, http://www.chukw.com/ .

This is what FSM is all about....amazingly skilled people SHARING their passion.  You have NO IDEA how much I've learned from people like Chuk W.

Thank you, brother.  Love it.  Always.

Thanks, TREYNX10R!

Lee, as ever you are too kind!  I'll see you this weekend- cheers!

Progress!  Here's the latest from my bench- enjoy!  It may be a while before the next update- I've got another project that will sideline the LanceR for a bit.  I'll let you know more about that as soon as I can- cheers!

I'm still waiting for my "mystery project", so I've pressed on with the LanceR.  You do a lot with scrap wire, brass tube and styrene if you put your mind to it!

Man, I somehow missed out on this latest build until now! I didn't even realize that you had moved up to Washington. Beautiful picture of Mt. Rainier. (Now where did I put my new hiking boots?) At least now you're away from the co-worker who had way too much free time on his hands!

As usual, great job on the model! I'll have to keep a sharper lookout!

Anything new with the MiG?

Aw, Jim- sorry to have not answered sooner! I've been working on a build article for TMMI, getting life back together, working and all that good stuff- thanks!

It's a bit late in the day, but here's a piece for all our Romanian friends!

And now for the latest- cheers!

Here's your COVID19 update!  Hope you are all well and keeping safe. I still have a couple of weeks work to finish my current freelance job- and then, well- I'll have a lot more modeling time. As Starlord might say, "Something good? Something Bad? Maybe a little of both?" 

Chuk, when I click on the pictures in your last two posts the same image comes up every time, different image in the first recent post is of a bunch of aftermarket.  Here's what shows in the most recent post:

Refresh your browser and see if you still see the proper image.  Still the same for me.

The image I see before clicking:

The image that image is linked to and I see after clicking:

Okay, now I get it- you can see the smaller images but can't click to see them full-size. I tried posting the images without the url tags and got what you're seeing with every pic. There's some f@kery embedded in the post from other sites that auto-code some kind of link into path of the pic. I tried typing the coded url in afresh, as well as the url without the html tags- no luck. There are simply not enough editing options available in FSM's edit window- sorry!

That must be it.

I've updated my blog and you can see them here  http://chukw.blogspot.com/2020/04/rough-going-update-from-covidland.html

Nice work! 

Thanks, keavdog!

In this thrilling episode, we take a long, hard look at the ejector seat trolley- read on!

Great episode, Chuk!

An admirable piece of work, Chuck, and I'm not referring the your heart surgeon, tough he must be pretty good too.  Very glad to see you back!

My only disappointment is that Capt Andrea seems to have a bit bigger butt than she did at the beginning of this years long epistle, but I guess that's to be expected.
