A little bit done over the last part of the week. Been busy today so nothing bench related. I thought I’d share the work

done though.

Decals. 🤗

I even managed to paint the little guy.

She's looking really good, Johnny - impressive how you managed to put all your modelling techniques into such a small thing :worthy:

 

Ciao

Progress has been going on with this little wonder in between the other builds I have going on at the moment. A Flory wash was done and the canopy got added.

Is it a donkey?

No, no, some kind of iceberg?

A cloud… is it a cloud?

Gawd no. I’m enjoying the multi builds but I think deep down in a one model kind of guy.

Sorry for the lack of updates on this little one. The Blenheim and Horton have been taking the lions share of my time. 
Blurry pic of the prop. That masking was really hard because of the scale. It’s painted now. We shall see what it’s like tomorrow.

And no it wasn’t a cloud. 

50525003193_038590d1ce_b.jpg

I sprayed it, slathered on some PVA and dropped static grass on it. It’s a chunk of a hill. ⛰

I cut a shape for the original stand to live and voila. 

50525003168_ac2787911f_b.jpg

This will be the first one to the finish line I think. More tomorrow.

Take care and as always. Happy modeling.

Not a lot today but that’s the way with multi builds eh. 🤣
 I think I’ll RFI everything at the same time along with the venom. 🤩

As for next. I’m pretty sure it’s going to be the new Hind. 😍😍😍

Just need to think what and if I’m going to get after market bits or build em. 😇🤩

Evening you lot. As it stands This little one is indeed first past the post. 
her Tiny blades have been given a Flory wash, a top coat and popped on.

He she is next to an old penny.

I’ll do a final post when the RFIs are done and sign off then. Thanks for following along with my first multi build. It’s been a real pleasure having you all along for the ride. Here are two just for you.
