Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Much better now. You're making that one look really good.

I hate the Battle as a plane but I do like this one  very much  ;D
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

I must admit that the Battle is turning out a bit better than I pictured it in my head.

I dug the USAF Commando kit back out of the storage tub again today and removed all the surplus to requirement turret parts.  It'll fit on the Staghound (little bit sloppy) but i'm not sure yet if it'll stay.

Fiero has wipers and i've glued the spoiler on.

Tinydyne transfers are all on and i've been using paint to fill in some gaps (surprisingly - or maybe not given my dissatisfaction with this kit) where the unmodified transfers meet the canopy.

A mix of paint and talc can work well.

zenrat

Thanks for the tip Rick.  But i didn't mean that sort of gap.  Just a bit of bare paint where the end of the transfers don't quite have the same shape as the edge of the canopy.

Nothing done today.  Work got in the way.

I understand this 'Retire' thing you speak of, but I don't think I'll be able to partake, for various reasons... ah well, I always knew my stash would outlast me. *shrug*

All good Fred; didn't realize it was a marking gap, not a crevice.  :thumbsup:

Even when you retire life gets in the way. Especially when people find out you are retired and have a pick up truck.

Much like when they find out you have a towbar.
Thankfully, I can say my trailer skills are pretty abysmal, which gives me an out! :thumbsup:

Have not been into Fred Zone for a while...the Battle is looking terrific. As is the Staggy.
