Glad you kept calm and saved it rather than throwing it against the nearest wall. What do you think will break next? 😜 John Hello John, I place a bet on retracting arms on the main legs .... 10 minutes ago, giemme said: Hopefully nothing on his van - the P-39 would be a lot easier to fix anyway Keep going, CC Ciao Yup me too Mr G...

I have to agree there are times it would be simpler to just get a keg system and hose and drink from the keg directly. Cut out the unnecessary extras like , cups, glasses, bottles, and cans 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 Hello Dears, Here's the actual bonus of modelling in multi builds mode.... The monogram nose wheel leg broke up when I tried to improve it a bit.... I don't worry about.... I use the Eduard one as a template.... More to come soon Gents.... I'm sorry, but these days are very hard for me, so I'm a bit less present for the while... Evening work day today... Sooo I see you tomorrow... Sincerely.

The force say "It's about a certain Sharkmouthed flying thing" Here it is @Dunny See, it has been buttoned up !! I'll add some bits and bobs as I'll start sanding.... It has no longer nothing to do with old monogram offering ... Then creating mock up radiator for the rear outlets And then Click Clack Boom.... Still can be finished this year !! Have a great modelling week... Evening work for me !! 🧛♂️🧛♂️ Sincerely. CC 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsaircorp Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 Hello Dears, 2021 is a hell of a year, in April my 3 cats have been killed by a maniac in September, my 2 parents passed away in a week And now, Sirius our Irish Wolfhound, 15 days ago, we learned that he suffer from Myelopathy and he was doomed... Yesterday a further exam reveal an advanced tumor in his liver, kidneys are already attacked... So Friday, he will cross the rainbow before there is to much pain for him.... Enough for me.... Well, I managed to go ahead with this huge improvement on the Monogram Cobra !! Putting on some bezels on the back side of the IP And adding a splitter plate in the intake scoop.... I almost finished the stencilling on the Phantom, but I was not in the mood for it yesterday... The Chevy is almost finished too, I repaired the rear axle once again... Then finishing the Corsair of the year !! Stay safe Gents... 4 evening day work for me... See you later... Sincerely. CC 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know where we go, that's sure, but today, I walked him and he still run a bit in the field. Believe me, I cried like a kid, then after a discussion with memsahib, we decide to postpone a bit... So, it will be next friday, now I pray that his health will not spin down whitin the next week.... See you later Gents, and once again, Thank you all mates !! Sincerely.

Marklo Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Happens to the best of us. If it’s any consolation I last my dad only a few weeks ago and my cat Snobol earlier in the year, that and the fact that the worlds still turned on its head owing to Covid and Brexit, so I can fully appreciate your situation. Here’s to a better 2022! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I am truly sorry to hear about your losses, CC. Losing parents is hard enough, but losing beloved pets that provide us with so much solace has to be a hard cross to bear. My sincerest condolences. I don't think I could keep my mind on modeling, but maybe it's a welcome distraction? Be strong, my fellow Naughty Corner inmate! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles87 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Hi Alain, been having serious problems with our internet recently so not much time on BM. I am also really sorry to hear about Sirius, you've had a bl**dy terrible year, let's hope that thing improve for you and yours in 2022. Stay safe John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spadgent Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Not sure there’s anything I can say to make any of this any better. I’m so upset for you. 😔 This year, twenty twenty one has been awful for you brother. A little more time with the hound will hopefully help you find some kind of solace. Totally gutted. A few weeks and you can shut the door on this year for good. Thoughts are with you. J 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted November 12, 2021 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 I really thank you Gents. Thanks for the support. I should have been in Telford today... Preparing the SIG's table... Damn virus and damn politicians all around the globe.... Well, I still work on my plastic bits... Next week will see 5 evening work days in a row... Tough.... I found some more sink marks... On this really hard plastic, I use to bore a hole in the sink mark in order to give a stronger point to the putty... Hooops, pic is really blurry !!! Now Roger !! It start looking like a Cobra.... More to come soon Gents And an happy SMW for the ones who will attend... Sincerely. CC 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
