Anybody have anything to show?
I’ did some black primer after some body snading and fitting.
Looking good Ed. Glad to see someone making some progress!!
I started the Lambo but not enough to take any pics yet. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I’ll have something to show.
Does it have to be 1/25, or will other scales be allowed?
Any scale!
I sprayed the Lightning with Gravity Colors Ford Magnetic Gray. 1st time using them but it sprayed well and I probably should have used a lighter color primer than black. I had a 2015 F350 that was Magnetic Gray and it was a bit different looking than my outcome.

I think that looks really sharp over the black primer, Ed. Good choice!
Picked my kit for this, Rye Field’s 1/35 Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.
Hoping to get going on it over the next couple days.

Okay!
Then if it’s okay this late in the game, I would like to drop in with a model, done the old way. I mean 1/32 and hand painted all the way. No Pactra(Garaunteed,No Brush Marks)So thinned Testors to the rescue!
I have started on the interior of the JLTV, mocked up for the picture. There are quite a few PE parts that go into it, these will be today’s project, along with painting.
Speaking of painting, there are ZERO painting instructions, so I have been trying to track down sources and will be using a bit of creative license.
Unfortunately when I saw the plant floor in Oshkosh, I did catch a view of the finished interior.
Seats painted and belts in place. I’ll be hitting them with some black and silver next.
PE in the interior has been bent and installed.
Your not even close to being too late since you have till the end of the year. Just let me know your choice and build away.
Nice, Robert!
You have me very intrigued about the kit and I started to watch a build of the JLTV on YouTube. I can’t wait to see more of your build.
Thanks, Ed. The kit is an interesting one, but it does have some challenges. If you can nab one on sale though, I’d lean towards doing so.
While the site was down last week, I made some progress. The interior decals are in place and painting is done. Still need to hit it with some drybrushing to break up the monotony.
The front and rear suspension assemblies are also finished:

I’m still here and checking in once and a while. I havnt really done much since summer rolled around. Well, modeling wise anyways.
Been rebuilding carbs on the boat and on the Mustang as well as a bunch of other summer related things.
Hi!

OK, let’s get things going again!
I’m still working on my Kenworth Cement Mixer. Been so busy at work, I can’t seem to have a moment to work on this kit.

Good to see it, though! Hopefully, this GB (and others) will pick up as we keeping moving forward.
