what's on your bench today

Currently a 1/48 Hasegawa Hurricane Mk.IIc that I am converting to a Sea Hurricane. Just finished scratchbuilding the arrestor hook and modifiying the underbelly to accomodate it. Now I’m in the process of painting the 'pit.

My current project is the Premium Edition Dragon Elefant. Off to the side is my Revell Germany HMS Victory, for which I am awaiting 1 replacement piece, and a 1/35 Tamiya AAWP7A1. That needs to be painted and it’ll be done.

Yeah, this is a zombie thread, but it seems like a good concept to revive! But there is a thread like this on another site where I’m active, so let’s bring this one back to life…

So midweek I did a marathon airbrushing session in the afternoon. The main purpose was to get the base color down for my M47’s power pack area, but I figured since I was airbrushing, why not do some other things as well. After our last Zoom meeting where I pulled out the Pro Modeler WWII airfield accessories kit, I decided to finish up the base painting on the items needing that, plus some Jerry cans and POL drums from the Tamiya accessories set that I purchased awhile back, as well as some more modern ESCI stuff.

Luftwaffe service cart, bomb cart, POL drums & Jerry cans… still need to do detail painting and such on most items

RAF starter cart and fuel cart

USAAF Clarktor tugs & bomb carts

ESCI Ford tractor, MJ-1 loader, bomb cart and aircraft tow bar

I think that it will be fun to weather them all to show all the work that they do on the flight line and ramp areas.

Nice selection of ground equipment there carlos. All 48th i am guessing.

And nice idea for a thread, glad you revived this one.

Yes, it’s all 1/48 stuff Bish. And these “catch all” type threads are enjoyable. It was funny going back to see my first post in here from years ago. I’ve actually finished most of the builds that I listed as sidelined from back then. But not quite all…[:$]

I would have missed the thread first time round, i wasn’t building in 2007, i didn’t get back into it and the forum until the following year. I like these threads as well, you get to see a good mix.

I’m just finishing a Meng model of the 1/35 Panther ausf A. I’m at the Zimmerit stage now, I will be using their decals, otherwise OTB. Just for fun, I’m also doing a Hasegawa Bf-109 G 14, 1/48 scale, also OTB. I’m back in the grove of building again after a 2 month status of off and on modeling.
