 Hmmm I may have to suck it up and get one of those Ju-88's but it is really fancy compared to the vintage kits!

Bondo now that Beaufighter has some merit. I may go on the search! Bet it would be cool!

Would you all believe that we got 4" of snow last night!!!  Grumpy [|(]Disapprove [V]Sigh [sigh]  I was in another City nearby for work meetings yesterday and had a heck of a time getting home. All that snow is going to put a damper on my video plans.  May have to delay posting one until it warms up again Guy.

She is right down the road a bit and I know she has a nice one. I will probally not have a use for one agian any time soon. Argh! Damn this homework Guy!

I am thinking of doing a Bi-plane for the next RA project. Trying to get a ggod representation of as many diff types as possible for this wonderous GB!

Corsair still needs a few tweaks but is on hold for the moment no worries though. Mugs? Somebody has been watching too much Bugs Bunny!  I do agree that the early cartoons are wonderous pieces of American literature!

I bought a set of the little blue plastic Airfix 1/72 italian guys yesterday. Figure I can Frankenstein a few to look like little ramp dudes standing around the  beached a/c, for scale. I've started on the masks for the upper wing design, and glued the wing/engine with gunner  on it/wing assembly together.

Guy is Ace and he is my son. It's where his twisted sense of humour came from.

Nice Dave. You've more patience than I with that paint. Won't you meet me for lunch sometime so i can touch your shirt. Maybe some of that a/b mojo will rub off on me. I'd like to see some final pics  so I can see what you do with the control surface trenches.

Thanks for the comments everyone.  I think it looks pretty cool with that huge torpedo slung under it.  Anyway, I'm going to try to finish it up sometime this week and then dive into my corsair for the FAW GB.
