WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart - Tomahawk progressing, got the base coat and the first pass at camouflage using the Sotar 20/20 airbrush. 1st time I’ve used it in two years so happy with the results.

Geoff - progressed a long way on the Moosearoo Cup entry- Arma Hobbies 1/72 P51A/B! Great kit. This led to a need for a “palette cleanser” so I pulled out the 1/72 LS kit of the BD5 and BD5J - the smallest jet ever built, it was famously flown by James Bond in Octopussy. Finally, the early P51 bug bit again and I’ve been plugging away on a 1/32 Hobbycraft P51A recon version. Nice shape but not as much detail as you might expect for 1/32.

Terry - 

A fair amount of work over the past years on the Halberd Models Turbo Cavalier Mustang is now in the primer stage, the Dora Wings P-43 Lancer being painted, and the Zentradi Fleet being dull coated. And I watched Sandman on Netflix. So should you.

Mike - 1/32nd F-18 for Brother in law. Trying some new paints - MCW paints,

Recommends - Lost in Space on Netflix.
