Nearly finished with the F4-U4 (minus canopy, top coat and decals)
Way to go 68GT! I can’t wait to see it!
More progress on my A-10. My F4U-4 is about 99.99% done so the final pics will be up VERY soon. I just have a few touch ups I have to do.
Wow, I can’t believe there hasn’t been any post’s since my last. Well here we go
Here’s my finished Mi-24 Hind.
I’m not completely happy about the finish. I used Acrylic for the color coat which made it very dull. I then sprayed gloss lacquer so I could lay down a black wash. This did not go as well as planed, the wash was too thin and just beaded off. I then thickened the wash and applied, but then I couldn’t get enough of the excess off to be happy with. So in frustration I decided this will be a very dirty Hind (I’ve seen pictures, there are some). So I then lightly sprayed some exhaust streaks, and sprayed a dull coat to knock down the gloss.
I didn’t like my method, does anyone have a better one?
I’ve ordered a canopy for the Hun from Squadron last night. So I will be building a F104C and F100D. COOL!

Modelcrazy you have earned the badge. And you are the first to complete your build. (only because im building 2 for this particular GB lol ;] you have been added to the 'ready for inspection section on the first page!
Steve, The Hind turn out fantastic! Great job!
Matt, the Corsair looks fantastic too! And I’m looking forward to seeing the A-10 completed!
Thanks! The last 2 models I’ve completed have been my first ever minus the one from when i i was 12
Matt,
Put me down for a 1/72 Hasegawa He111 P/H for a second build. I’ll start on it as soon as I’m finished with the Chi Ha, F100D, F104C and Me 262.
At some point I’ll get back to my Arizona.
Thanks to all. and keep up the good work.
Modelcrazy- I can’t wait to see your next build after seeing that Hind!
68GT- Triple threat, I see…

That looks great 65gt!
I may have to put my A-10 in the scrapyard (MASSIVE super glue disaster)
