The Captain's Cabin- March on….

[Captain Canada]

I'm home ! Yay ! What an awesome trip. 15 wells in 11 days. Phew

[Old Wombat]

Time for a little R&R, then!

[TheChronicOne]

Welcome back, homie!   

[DogfighterZen]

Glad to have you back, Captain Sir!

[Captain Canada]

Thanks guys !

Nothing on the go around here. The boy had hockey all weekend, 6 games in fact ( 5-0-1 for champs, boy scored 5 goals and 11 or more assists  )

I return to work tomorrow, so that will also put a damper on things. I usually go all-out in a house cleaning/ sorting binge on my last day off, so hopefully that will bring back a wee bit of my mojo. In truth, as I was sorting and clearing last month I still have stuff to put away. The plan was to build a new shelf, for ongoing projects, both the boys RC and fishing stuff, my models, as well as the real-life motorcycle/ bicycle stuff. As always, money runs out before ideas, so I have to await my pay until I can grab a few bits and bobs to do the shelving unit.

Model wise, I want to finish my 2 old kits for the build. But that is slow as usual as I keep thinking ofother things, like submarine carriers 

I've also been day dreaming of an early ship-borne AEW platform, sort of like a Beaufighter. With Shak engines. Then I think using a Shak forward fuselage might be the way to go.....stay tuned

Have I not ever posted pics of my twin Spitfire from the BoB build ? Strange...I finished it but I don't see it in the finished builds thread d'oh ! 

[Captain Canada]

Been away working in Illinois, but finally back at the 'bench' ! Spent a few hours last night watching tele and working on that old A-10/ Prowler mash-up. Pics to follow !

[Captain Canada]

Ok, I'll get some pics of the Twin up this week.

[TheChronicOne]

Yeah i want to see both. 

[Captain Canada]

OK will do ! The Prowlerhog is coming along nicely as well! I need to figure out a scheme for it tho. I'm thinking it's carrier based, Navy, but can also be a shore launched marines or AF bird. I'd like to do it dark and dirty like an early NATO A-10, but an all over grey might look more believable....

Get crazy and combine the best of both worlds with maybe a tri color camo..like... grey, light grey, and white or something.    :::shrug::;  Or not.  lol

I'd like to see it dark and dirty, but gray shouts Navy. I see your issue here...

Build a second one.

I support the motion of a second one!

[Captain Canada]

I had originally planned on building it in 72nd scale. I do have the kits around somewhere.....

Cool. Forgot all about that ! When we were kids we thought the a/c was called the A-10 Jaws !
