Ok, like I'm sure I've whined about before, the timing caught me at a disadvantage since I'm heading north in less that 18hrs from now, but have fear not! For I will have my dormroom all to my whimsy self for the first few days of the term before classes start (Dorms open Sept. 1, classes start Sept. 6), so I will be taking advantage!

So far I've planned three builds:

1. Revell 1/100 F-20
I havent got a firm idea about this one yet, but I am adding a new burner can from a diecast F-18

2. Revell 1/100 F-14A cov. to F-14B "Victory-207"
I had hoped to avoid the Jolly Rogers, but after I found my copy of James Huston's Flash Point I decided to do one of the Almant bunker strikers. Since I dont have any 1/100 F110 cans handy I'll have to settle for a pair of modded F100 burners, scratch the LANTERN pod & undernose camera, and the big leap for me is doing a GBU-28 from scratch.

3. Has. 1/72 F-20
This is one of the kits I had planned for last year's festivities, it will be one of the initial MiG-32 Firesharks delivered to the Ceylonese AF around '89 or so.


Construction should commence no later that Monday evening.
