Revell Monogram Group Build!!!

oh ok i found the answer to my question... just didn't look hard enough the first time.

no progs on the SR-71 yet. will get the latest pics updated ASAP. need new batteries. my camera is an energy hog. I dunno why a few shots on macro takes so much electricity

im building the Arii corsair ATM, just to get away from all the scribing.

Hello everyone.

You guys really are doing some fantastic work here.

And just trying to keep up with all of the posts I've been receiving has been a challenge.

And like a foolish beginner, I joined 4 different GBs without ever doing so in the past

And without knowing the protocal for posting pictures, I had gotten quite a bit done before i started to take some pictures.

Oh ya, I'm building a 1/48 B-25J in the markings of the Air Apaches.

I will do better in the future to keep my progress more up to date.

As you might be able to see by some of the first pics, I have weighted the nose down with a mixture of bird shot and epoxy glue. It just so happens that there is a perfect place just below the flight deck to add the weight.

I also used the hook thats screwed into the firewall as a handle during paint.

I am just finishing the top turret, and hopefully will have it on by this weekend and I can get this one decaled and finished.

As you can see, I don't weather my planes, rather, I build them as they would be today, as highly polished warbirds...its the easy way out, I guess.

USAF nice work on the B-25. Looks like it's going to be a good clean build.

F-106 has paint applied. While it's drying I decided to start a pair of Revell P-51D's in 1/48. I've got so many P-51 schemes I want to do I decided to do 2 at once.
I've got the cockpits done so far.

Well I started my F-14A today and I almost got the cockpit done I'll try posting pics soon.

WAAA!!!! how come it takes me 15 years to finish a model?!!?!?

Because you build faster than me.

If someone told me I would be rescribing panel lines for ten hours, I would have told him to seek therapy. I've been rescribing for longer than that so i should be commited. I still have about three hours of panel lines to finish on the Delta Dart But then hahaha I will be able to get the glue out.

And then your gonna have even more fun!

I'll get a pic of the one Im working on in a few minutes.

Here's a link of my build Im to lazy to post it in to places.

Here you go not for this build but maybe some inspiration or something?

Nice work   Very clean.

Hey All,

 Progress report...

My Work area I share with my boys ( Wife loves it )

The Body seen here needs a bit more sanding and such.

The chassis is a work in progress as well but not in a photo as of yet.

ahh my avitar, one of my fiancee's friends is the kind of female that cant keep a boyfriend to save her life, so she likes to try to keep all her friends as single and miserable as she is, the kind of irrationallity that gives all females a bad name(ie "he peed on the toilet seat! you need to leave him he is no good" etc) so i kicked her out of my house one time for being down right rude to me, and in her ranting on the way out the door she mentioned that I was the devil, sooo to make a long story short I went into photoshop and made that picture, made myself the devil, put a nice angelic light over my fiancee's head and posted it on my myspace. ya long story, but the the picture made us laugh

wow, i thought this was a group build not complain about my girlfriends friends hour. HAHAHA.

IS THAT PINK??

IS THAT PINK?? " border="0" width="15" height="15" />  LOL no actually the lights and flash washed out the red. I should have known someone would have busted my chops on that LOL. Thx for being the first to get it over with.

Guido

Well, I was all ready to start putting the decals on tonight, but when they hit the water, they broke up...unusable

Luckily I found a sourse for some aftermarket decals that will allow my to keep with the current paint scheme

I did get the top turret, forward crew boarding hatch on and the cowling anti-glare panels painted.

So I'll be on hold until I receive the replacement decals though the mail.

Time to get going on some of my other GB projects.

Leon

Hola peeps!  Got to the table this weekend and got some more done.  No pics of the progress because i just sanded and glued the body together.  I started painting the exhuasts and some some small stuff like the missles and landging gear.  I did get a new camera and it takes AWESOME pics so i reshot the pit.  Here ya'll go and i'll post more after the sanding party on these seams

Progress update....Revellogram 1/48 F-106A

My Six is 100% scribed, I have started panting and assembling wheel wells and landing gear. Cockpit tub and IP is glued in place and IP hood painted. Should have fusalage together in about another week.

Air Master

Great progress all,

My Titanic is prgressing vvveeerrryyy slowly.  I feel like I hit an iceberg.  I was trying to paint (with brush) the bulkheads and such on the decks white but it kept flowing into all the corners and making a real mess.  I think I may have to spend an agravating amount of time masking all the white bits from the deck tan and giving the areas that should be white a shot with the AB.  grrrr... gotta love Revellogram.  This is going to take a bit longer, lucky there's another 11 months till the deadline Yippee! On the other hand, the hull is sanded and ready for paint.  

Looks like some great progress is being made. I'm going to clearcoat the F-106 tonight then hopefully I can start decalling soon.

Leon sorry about the decals but the plane is looking great so far.

Airmaster nice job on the pilot figure.

First of all, nice work everyone!

Attached are the photos of my now completed Kyle Petty 1981 Buick Regal.  As I went into my tale of woe a few pages back, the blue was all airbrushed over the red.  The white outlines around the blue are from the kit decals.  I am also including pictures of the cockpit and the fuselage and fuel tanks for the recently re-released 1/72 X-15 that I will work along with my Richard Petty car (from the two-kit set I displayed in one of my early posts).  As always, I am open for any and all questions and comments.

Scott,

Very nice work on the #42 race car.  The x-15 is coming along fine also.

Darwin, O.F.

The plane is looking great, but that pilot is due for an Article 15.  His mustache is definately NOT within AFR 35-10 limits.

Darwin. O.F.  

Wow a lot of great work going on in here. I am impressed with all of the work. I have just got started on my C-47 and just painting the interior so far. When I have something to show I will post pics.

Steve.
