Almost done... Finished 95% of the decalling on the Suby, after that quickly brighten up the surfaces, the arials. This is the last time I'll only do the decalling this late, having found ith my current MotoGP build it's much better do it beforehand, then it's easy to clearcoat and polish decently. Banged Head [banghead] See, old dogs can learn new tricks.

All done! Excuse the quality of the pics, light was not too good! I got sidetracked and only took photo's late in the day... Amazing how the low sun picked up and reflected the dust, etc I did not even notice till I saw the pics! Angry [:(!] And the window that looks fine indoors looks filthy in the one pic!

Anyways, here they are...

Sorry, this one was taken a bit skew...


How the window looks like this on this pic, I don't know...


Side-on shot...

Looks good SeeBee!
I'm still setting up a spray booth to continue with the 1943 Essex. Do we have a deadline here? This will probably take me
into May.

Great looking Subaru!!!Looks ready to go.

Well, it took me long enough but the L/70 is done.The Zim is Apoxie Sculpt, the side Shurzen is scratched from thinner stock and iy has a Jordi Rubio barrel.While the Tamiya kit is showing it's age it was still fun to build and I look forward to doing acouple more.This will be going into a small dio, just like all my other builds will as soon as I come up with a display case.It's dusty out here in the country and I hate to dust builds.

Thanks for the positive comments...

STUG, that is awesome work! Thumbs Up [tup] I have one armor model in the cupboard yet to be built. Seeing something like this makes me want to go and dust it off!

Thanks SeaBee!!!

There's just something cool about German T/D's in my book!!

I've got a few more of these and a bunch of Hetzers and Marders to build too!!!

So many kits so little time!!

Thanks again for the kind words!!
