Some of you may be aware of some. . . discrepencies that have occured to me recently that has left me without any real urge to bond with styrene. Well about 30min. ago I decided to see if I could re-engage by building this little gem that I picked up a few weeks ago at the New Orleans show.

It's one of those pre-painted 1/144 scale J-Wings World Fighters series 1 by the Japanese firm Cafe Reo. I had to leave-off the LANTIRN and LGBs as they would not be accurate for a VF-84 bird, and I actualy built the bird dirty! :o  You cant tell from this pic, but I modded the tailhook so it's in the down position. The stand is leftover from a 1/120 P-61 that decided to commit diecast suicide. :angry:

Hopefully I'll get some better pics up later on, and I plan on trying to get something together for ARC.

Excellent way of re-starting modelism after a slump  :cheers:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Yeah, Shas. That's some achievement, man!!

I hope the model therapy continues giving such good results.
