While your at it Miss Owl, Could you put my P 47 on the front page instead of (if not both) my P 38.
Thanks

Miss OWL,
Nearly a year ago i started up the RoG hurricane mkIIc for the GB.... I must admit i completely misplaced the front windscreen and ended up binning the project.
This afternoon at my LHS i noticed the shop owner was experimenting trying to sell some airfix kits, which he never done before and i ended up taking this box home with me:
Airfix 1:48 scale Hurricane Mk1
I was hoping my big charming froggie eyes would be able to persuade you to change things up on the front page and list this one instead of the mkIIc? It's bigger too

Okay the Thunderbolt is finished.I will now unleash the beast, so everyone look out LOL
Got started on my Gekko.....
I used some craft acrylic paint for the aotake. It splatted a good bit (and clogged my airbrush quite often!) but the flash on my camera makes it look worse than it really is, I think.
....working my way up the airbrush learning curve......
Thanx mate.
Theuns
very nice finish Theuns. Ill get on the front page, pronto! :)
------------------------
Now that I'm here, where am I??
Theuns -- sweet build! I especially like the way the salt chipping came out, I must have a go at this -- or hairspray or those AK Interactive things! These old Otaki kits are fun, aren't they?
Cheers, Mike/TB379

Hi guys, Here is my 1/48 Otaki Shinden completed.
Hunbrol enamels, tamiya smoke and future clear satin coats over salt chipping
Almost done. All thats left to do is a few more decals, Touch up a few spots I messed the paint up on, and the clear coat
Gamera - Thanks I'm not one to brag, but I think she may turn out okay
Engine or no engine I like her!

Yea, I hadn't thought how it looks w/o the cowling and engine LOL
The latest pics
Here are the latest picson my Jug. I used some charcoal to weather it. What do you all think
There is a little bit of Flat Black paint on the exhaust stain. It is a lot darker in person.
Owl: I'll admit a Viggen in American markings looks a little funny to me - sharp work! Love the Ferris scheme on her.
thanks guys!
. . . . and gluing myself together....im a lost cause
Nice looking Thunderbolt you got there OWL
And here's hoping you can say the same sentence for mine
My daughter used to like "Babylon 5." Built her a model of it, hung it from her ceiling with fishing line, and glued myself to the fishline with superglue. Had to holler till somebody brought me fingernail polish remover.
Embarrassing moment...
between sticking my finger in wet paint and gluing myself together....im a lost cause!
CallSignOWL nice progress greentracker! :) I stick my fingers in wet paint too.....
nice progress greentracker! :)
I stick my fingers in wet paint too.....
Thanks Ms. Owl. That must be a occupational hazard. We just can't resist picking it up. Especially when the matte finishes look dry. LOL
That's a nice, attractive camo scheme to look at; finely and subtly weathered, too. Good work, Ms OWL!
FINITO!!!
Okay here are a couple of pics of the Thunderbolt. The bare spot is where i stuck my finger in the wet paint I may never learn LOL It seems like I do something on every build to create more work for me to do.
I'm sorry I forgot to tak a few pics of my Jug Thunderbolt before I painted it tonight, I'll take a couple of pics tomorrow. This was the first time i used my airbrush in a long time. I need to do some touching up where the colors change from dark olive to neutral grey. Also, I need to get rid of finger print in the paint. LOL
Looks great Owl Actually, everyones builds are looking great.
decals, whoooo!
yup, ferris is correct! :)
