I know it's way past the deadline but here's what I have so far.  Sprayed the OD and did some work on the LG.

Thanks Alex, it's only been two weeks for me.  I need to touch up some gray and OD then clear coat decals, you know the drill.

Aaron, I just took this looking out the back door of my Modeling Shack here in the PNW looking towards BC. Sorry its blue but it starts getting Dark around 3:pm here. Call in your kids to take a look, not cooled off yet ? Tell them to imagine they are down swimming in the river then...

Dec 9

Well remember yesterday when the kids were complaining about it being 82 degrees and Sean suggested this? I just took this photo of them tonight.

 The power of suggestion fellows!

Roy! Party [party] great color and smooth work! Swear it looks much larger than 1/72!  I wouldn't worry bout the deadline just get it done right! Hey if it's been a year no need to rush make a sweet P-40.

Been talking to GZT! he has a Hawk WIP that is totally putting my to shame if ya get time to check out the aircraft section. Seeing all his detail is just killing me!

 Yeah crazy weather. Got down to right at 33 and snowed so hard it actually covered the ground until about 3 AM not it's over 60 again? Go figure? Try not to catch a cold with this fluxuation!

 Yeah yeah I know snow is no big whoop to mosta you all but the kids hadn't seen it for 4 years now.

 Speaking of something you dont see everyday. I was out side looking at the reminents of the rapidly melting snowman and the Space Shuttle flew over and landed. Piggy backed on that huge carrier jet. Amazingly huge and loud!  Very cool!

 Nam said elsewhere that he was building. Didn't say if it was a model?

Roy? Roy, ROY! has the P-40 passed over to your GB?

I see super Smeagle is plugging away in spite if his finger woes! Good Man!

 Lewbud be working his tail fins off for the holidays.

Has anyone surrendered yet?  Better yet has anyone seen my socks?
