A very interesting (and scary) subject. I've had similar thoughts and ideas, so I'll be following this. /Bosse

Stunning Meteor IIan. /Bosse

Thanks Werner. Well that's one way of looking on it. I think I'll have a plan on how I'm going to survive, and my built collection, during the evacuation. /Bosse

Hi. I can't believe that it took me a full fortnight to finish the top camouflage on the Belarussian Mitten. 159 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr But now it's done and I have to say I'm rather pleased with the colours. But I still got plenty left to do on this one. To be continued..... /Bosse

Hi. Time isn't on my side these days. I've not been able to do any modeling for about a week. But yesterday I received the first production shot of Christer A's MW-1 in 1/144. 125 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr It's not a small weapon system even in the tiny scale 1/144. I've primed it with some light grey enamel so the acrylic paint have something to grip on. And since my three young ones now have their school holidays I hope I'll have some more time for modelning. To be continued..... /Bosse

Thanks Christer. Looking forward to it. /Bosse

Hi. As I've already said, I'm not going to start any new larger projects until the renovation of our appartment block is done sometime next spring/summer. But a Tornado in 1/144 scale can't positivly be called a large project. So I'm building this as a test aircraft for @Christer A project in 3D printing a Mehrzweckwaffe 1 (MW-1) capsule for the German Tornado. I'll be using one of my many Revell 1/144 Tornados for this one. 122 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I really like this small little kits and I think I've bought at least ten of them during our vaccations in Germany. They only costs around €8 and I've got a plan to do all the cool Tigermeet and other special paint schemes the Germans are known for and for that I think 1/144 is the perfect scale. The box contains three grey sprues, and one clear. 123 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr The small sprue with the AGM-88's and the IR linescanner will not be used in this build since they are ECR specific. You also get a small decal sheet for one Tigermeet option and one option in standard Norm 95 colours. 124 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr I won't be using the Tigermeet decals on this build since mine is going to be an operational aircraft in Norm 83. I primed all part yesterday evening with some light grey enamel and I'll start buidling on Sunday when I return home from a weekend spent in the cottage. To be continued..... /Bosse

Thanks Werner. /Bosse

Hi. I'm back in the saddle again. I think I burned my self out with four Swedish aircrafts in four months in the Nordics GB. That and the notice that we'll have to evacuate our flat sometime next year for a complete renovation of the building didn't do so well for the mojo. I'm not going to start any new larger projects until we've moved back into our appartment after the renovation. But I will try and finished some started builds before I have to pack everything up. So yesterday evening I sat down at the bench for the first time in a month and did some painting on my Belarussian Mitten. I've got the "beech forrest" colours on. 154 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 155 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 156 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr It's quite pleasing to work with acrylic paints instead of enamels. I could to all three colours in one session last evening instead of three sessions with one colour at the time. This will not dry over the weekend. We celebrate our National Day here in Sweden tomorrow June 6 and I'm spending the weekend in the cottage continuing on my vegetable garden project. 157 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr 158 by Bosse Persson, on Flickr Unfortunatelly the weather forecast doesn't look that promising for outdoor activities.

WOW. That is one stunning Fitter you've got Werner. Well done. /Bosse

A small token of my apprecitation is on the way. /Bosse

Perhaps I'd be better of with an Aussie Growler then.... /Bosse

It's the HobbyBoss 1/48 F-111C "Pig" /Bosse

I'm interested in joining this GB pending on when it might run. I'm not going to be able to model anything starting from Christmas 2020 and for about six months on. We're about to evacuate our appartment for a complete renovation of the building, and it'll take around six months until we can move back. But if this goes through and takes place at the second half of 2021 I'd like to enter. Give's me that perfect chance to build that Aussie F-111 I have in the stash. /Bosse

Please count me in. I bought a J35F/J Hasegawa kit yesterday. /Bosse
