[Mr Bowcat]

Hi guys,

So this is what I'm building for the GB. Far fewer sprues than I'm used to. I love the scale description, 1:egg

Nice one Bob look forward to seeing you build this one.

Well, this isn't going to take long. After 10 minutes work I had this.

Hi Bob taking shape nicely, some of these don't take long at all to put together especially the plans.

Hi Bob
Very speedy start. Looks to have gone together neatly. Is it glued or just clicked together?

Looking good!

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers guys.

Paul, not quite yet, it got put aside as I've got a Spitfire to paint.

Jim, the nascelles were just dry fitted in that pic, everything else was glued.

Cheers Ian.

Did a bit more on this. Filled some gaps and primed. My blackbird is now a greybird.

Hi Bob nice clean job on the gap filling and primer.:thumb2:

Been busy on other things, but tonight I got the minimalist office painted and decaled, and the canopy installed.

That's a lovely fine finish on the grey

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Mick, Stynylrez is lovely primer.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Hi guys,

Small update. I've painted the base colour, applied decals and glossed.

The decals were a bit of a pig, really thick and didn't want to settle down.

 

[Guest]

Hi Bob looking good, your almost at the finish line. :thumb2:
Pete.

 

[Jim R]

Hi Bob
That looks great. Seems you tamed the decals as they look fine.
Jim

Cheers guys.
