discussion What model/diorama are you currently making?

[Guest]

Just thought this would be an interesting thread! Name/list the current model/diorama that you are making to see what everyone is doing! List the name, brand, scale and plans for it.

I am currently making the Sherman M4 MK1 by Airfix (1:76) for a bit WW2 diorama with the US/British and Germans.

Well hopefully i'll be getting some lead shot this weekend so i'll be finishing off my Ta-154 but after that i'm not really sure what i'll have a go at. Seriously looking at my 1/32 Revell Bf109 K-4 but i'll wait and see what i think would be best

Still working on my 1/16 Heng long Tiger, got a bit carried away with hacking bits off, now just got to find the time to put it all back together, going to start on my idea for the next non gb gb soon

Well my Ben Ain still progresses, now soon to be under construction for six years! You can't rush a steam plant!! I've spent the last two days building a 1/32nd push bike for it, which I still have to paint so it's not surprising it's takig so long.

I am well into My Mosquito conversion. A Tamiya 1/48 B mkIV with Paragon Designs resin set to turn it into a Twin Highball bomber. At present I am waiting for a replacement part as I was so daft as to cut one of the main parts from the casting block wronge!!! So what To do whilst I wait for that? I also have an FB Mk VI and a conversion set to do a Sea Mosquito, or I might look into back dateing my Jaguar GR3 to a GR1. Then again I might do something really different and build a car......

Ok so i was going to get my lead shot tomorrow and then finish my Ta-154 but the weather has decided to thrown in blizzard conditions with drifting snow. So i aint going anywhere. Hmm what to build instead?

A snow plough?

Snowing here to off and on. I was on the News yesterday that super markets up and down England are running out of food!!! Is it really that bad?

 

[AlanG]

Ian up here in Scotland we are running out of fuel because the refineries won't send trucks out because it's too dangerous. Not fuel means no trucks to bring supplies etc etc

No. It's typical of the press here. Some stores in some more remote (from a major road) areas are not getting resupplied but those places are generally inhabited by people who are better able to deal with such an inconvenience than a journalist who thinks Hampstead Heath is the great out doors,and is dissapointed to discover that his Cayenne doesn't actually work off road or on an inch of snow!

Got 2 Typhoons underway - The 1/32 MDC Resin Kit and the Hasegawa 1/48

Just got to the rivet detail on the 1/32 Tiffy and feel this could take some time! Just spent best part of 3 evenings applying rivets to one upper wing!

Here's the link
