JOCKNEY Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 This is a placeholder while I get all the other Builds finished. Having too many Builds on the go at the same time is never a good idea but, life's too short not too and these GBs are too tempting. picture from Scalemates Good luck everyone Cheers Pat 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Just don't be deceived by the header: code reads E-B on both sides (as per the transfer sheet). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinxman Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Nice - an oldie but Goldie. I must point out however, that that aerial does not count as rigging.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Still finishing off other Builds, but couldn't resist a look at this one My original clear parts were missing but I've been saved by Rich aka @Richard Tucker so thanks to him this one gets built in this STGB, cheers Pat 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Beema Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Pat, As a heads up I see that on the Frog picture the Hellcat is marked B°E. I think the ‘E’ (HMS Emperor) should always be on the left. ‘B’ the Aircraft Letter is to the right.. Both side should read E°B.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi Pat, great choice! Is there a single FROG kit that you do not have in the mine dump-sized stash of yours? It took me all these years to finally understand why FROG kits were always in short supply in France... They kept blaming Scotland... I was too stupid to understand... Now I know. Beautiful plane and I shall definitely follow your progress. Have fun. JR 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted July 24, 2021 Author Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi @jean As the sun has arrived in the highlands and all other members of the Jockney clan are out tonight, a chance to do a bit of modelling Al Fresco ! Oh the peace and quiet, modelling bliss Cheers Pat 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi Pat, nice progress on you cat. Re your al fresco modelling time I am, for once, jealous! Here it has been dark since 6 PM, and it is freezing ! No Highland cow would survive it! Modelling "inside" when we have no windows on our home is a mission, especially with skying gloves! I suspect though that the bottle of single malt is just outside the photo... You forgot to remove the glass from the table. Great show mate, and enjoy your two hours of summer!

JOCKNEY Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 Mind the gap ! Going to need a second coat and a tidy up, also the canopy is proving to be a challenge, who would have thought 2 kits of the same aircraft could be so different ! Hopefully more progress this weekend. Cheers Pat 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 Apologies, I've been meaning to post these for a while. Im calling this one finished, many thanks for all the support and encouragement along the way, thanks to Rich aka @Richard Tucker for the canopy without which this kit would still be lingering in the big box of, "There's bits missing but too good for spares" ! I hope you like it Cheers Pat 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
