Ok, got a start on my Spence. Cut the hull down to the waterline, sanded, removed the molded on walkways and am almost ready to begin actual construction. Will begin by finishing the deck and painting the complete hull. I'll post pics soon, but make no promises as to when "soon" is...

Sweet. Can't have too many zeroes... I know that I'm being a horrible host, but summer vacation will be here for me next week. I'll try to update everything as soon as possible. Also, I have some more kits. Looks like this might be a go.

Ok, first of all you are not being a terrible host. It sounds like you are just busy, and trust me, I know the feeling. I am home schooled so my mom ( aka my teacher ), turns every thing into a lesson, and I mean EVERYTHING!, there is no such thing a break! Ha ha ha! So I understand about being busy, Jim

Wait! You're homeschooled? Sweet! Hello, fellow homeschooler! Small world. real quick, what cirriculum do you use? Just curious...

homeschool? whats that?

Where i live no one is homeschooled for some reason.

Hey!, it is good to meet another home schooler!, I don't meet too many of those around here in vegas. And to answer your question, for the most part I use sonlight, but we throw in a few other things too, I can't keep track of it all, ha ha.... So what curriculum do you use?, Jim

Oh! Sonlight! I used that from 1st to 8th grade... I loved it! We use Mother of Divine Grace, a company in Calif. The reason I use it is because it's accradited, so to schools, it's the same as if I went to a private school.

Because I am!! And I just asked my mom, I use sonlight for history but I am also enrolled with Kolbe Academy, so it counts with schools too! Again, great to meet another home schooler, Jim

You are Catholic! Hey, I'm an admin on a forum just for Catholic Homeschoolers. I'll send you a PM with the link later today.

I am joining.  I will be building an old Hasegawa kit.  A MI-24 Hind 'Hungarian Air Force Special'.

I am age 12.

nice to have you here. didnt realize theat their were so many juniors on this forum.

   I didn't either.

I started today, I have about 3 out of 10 steps done.  I added filler to the bottom of the fuselage, sanded down the window on the side, and finished putting together the cockpit.  Here are some pictures...

This was my progress...

Looks good!

I'm not homeschooled.. haha.. Well, I am when it comes to WWII knowledge!

I am still finishing my POW camp (haven't seen it? Check Dioramas - page 2)....   And I'm not TOO sure about what I'll build, but I'll find out - eventually!

Yeah, the POW diorama is preety cool!, looking forward to seing what you end up building!

        Thanks, Jim

Yeah.. me too!

And I just found out that it is to be displayed in 8 days

And as there's LOTS of things to do before that day (Making food (all made in WWII fieldkitchens) getting guns outside, vehicles, cleaning, setting lots of items for display in the bunkers, and MORE) will be started Friday, and we'll sleep in military tents at location the weekend..... So I got..5-6 days on me.. Oh geez.. This is gonna get busy!!
