Glenn's Current Modeling Projects

Today I'm back with the Westland Wolfe with its port wing on the way to being finished. I've had an idea on drawing up plans of models as I finish them....interested? That way you'll see how much butchering it took to make it.

Well, thanks for saying 'yes' as I've started the first plan, a Hawker Huntress. Today, a riddle, "When is a Blackhawk, not a Blackhawk.......when it's a Turkey Buzzard!"

I thought BOTH ends were the blunt end!

Yeah, you're right there!

This rare photo is of (we believe) an Arado Ar 640 Night Fighter. These photos were obtained from the French Resistance from our Luftwaffe contact. (SOE opperative Gama 302) last month. Taken in southern France, where the Luftwaffe have full control. Not much in known about this aircraft except that it is powered by two jet engines mounted below the fuselage.

Now that one looks cool, in terms of shape as well as camo!

Back with the Barkley Grow, almost done. All I have left to construct is the finish the engine fronts, exhaust pipes and undercart, panels windows...How to finish her, not sure yet?

I've always dreamed of a Barkley-Grow T8P1 in U.S.A.A.C. colors but I never did it myself because I thought most people would mistake it for a Beechcraft 18...

Glenn · August 17, 2011, 01:49:14 AM

Yeah mate, but with fixed undercart!

This is what the F-87 will look like with it's engines on. This shot is just basic, the engine narcels have to be sanded, bogged, finished, paneled and the intake covered from inside and the tailpipes added.
'Just a walk in the park, really!'

Fantastic Blackhawk!! Have you considered some Blackhawk (comic book) painting/markings? They had a Martin XB-51 in the comic at some point I think, so an XF-87 wouldn't be that far-fetched... as a replacement for their XP-50 Skyrocket!!

F-87 is looking good Glen
