WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart - A bit of working getting the fuselage closed up on the 1/72 Arma Hurricane and weathering about to being start on a Tomahawk.

Geoff - still plugging away on the Hobbycraft 1/32 P51B Mustang. I finally put some pictures and descriptions of the Moosearoo Cup build onto the podcast Facebook group, as I saw that some others had done so. Great response and I noticed today that even Arma Hobbies - who makes the kit - picked up our post. Nice to see. Otherwise, a lot of my time has been spent on refurbishing a 55 year old wood lathe that I acquired. Let the chips fly!

Terry - Getting some bench time in. Now painting the Dora Wings P-43, looking pretty good. I should get to gloss coating this weekend. The Halberd Models Turbo Cavalier is getting close to paint as well. I’m pretty happy with the primer and am now getting the canopy on. The cockpit received some updating to make it a late 90s or 2000s era chase plane.
