Let's freak Barry with a work update!

Ollie · February 06, 2004, 02:38:30 PM

First off, Hasegawa 1/48 George, freshly painted.

Ollie · February 06, 2004, 02:40:08 PM

Fw 187, ready to paint once I've sanded everything a bit and plugged holes around the canopy with white glue.

Ollie · February 06, 2004, 02:41:54 PM

Next is the Huey, almost ready to paint too. Need to mask the canopy and plug the holes with Kleenex.

Ollie · February 06, 2004, 02:43:18 PM

Lastly, my first vac-from, a Sierra Models Curtiss-Wright CW-21B. It'll be in Dutch Colonies markings with the big triangles.

Stay tuned for more!

Ah-HAAAA! I actually FINISHED one of mine this week: Swiss F-5E in Tigermeet markings.

Bad photo though. Hoping to take good, daylight shots tomorrow.

Ollie · February 06, 2004, 08:04:51 PM

Yes, but it's just ONE model Barry. I showed 4.

Eh.

Beautiful F-5 by the way!!!

Captain Canada · February 06, 2004, 09:26:45 PM

Yeah, your F-5 looks totally different in that light, like the CF-18 439 special !

And Ollie, quit screwing around with all that goofy Axis crap, and get that Huey finished !

BEAUTIFUL F5 Barry..

Good stuff guys

Ollie, hows that big Spit coming on? I got the decals the other day, thanks very much

Ollie · February 07, 2004, 09:39:23 AM

Thanks guys!

Nev, the big Spit is on stand by, I need to repaint the interior and will wait faor warmer temps.

How did you liked the letterhead in my letter?

nev · February 07, 2004, 09:49:42 AM

Very good Squadron Leader Lacombe, sir!

John Howling Mouse · February 07, 2004, 09:58:43 AM

QuoteYes, but it's just ONE model Barry. I showed 4.

Eh.

Aye, Laddie.
But at least my model is FINISHED!!!!

And I know: you'll have your FOUR finished by the time I get my next
single model finished.

I can always blame my lack of modeling productivity on the higher priority of 'parenting.'

And, speaking of parenting, Ms. Hitler just left for a veterinary seminar----doesn't get back until Tuesday night. Time to re-arrange the house for more model display space!!

Ollie · February 07, 2004, 10:08:39 AM

Very well S/L Nev!!

Barry, if I wasn't out of Flat, I would have maybe 8 mdels finished by now. Consider yourself lucky.

Good luck with Operation "Clean House"!!!

nev · February 07, 2004, 12:46:27 PM

QuoteVery well S/L Nev!!

Squadron Leader Lacombe, I could never be a "Rupert" like you sir. No, no, I'd much rather be a Warrant Officer, best rank in the RAF! Any NCO rank where an officer has to salute *you* first has to be good!
