Davek72 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I will finish a GB, I will finish a GB, I will finish a GB.... Work has been manic and the mojo has been lacking. Covid in September didn't help either. I may still finish my French Fancy Mirage but will need to find some replacement parts after the carpet monster ate a few. Anyway didn't have anything in the stash for this one but a quick order to Hannants produced this: Looks very nice. A little flash but nothing serious and the engraving is very fine. Relatively low parts count (well it is 1/144) so hopefully will go together quickly. The above photos were taken at about 9am yesterday (Saturday). I decided to treat this a little like a blitzbuild and managed to set aside about 4 hours on Saturday and Sunday to do this. That's as far as I have got tonight. I have really enjoyed the build so far. Unfortunately I discovered on Saturday that I don't have quite the right paint colours to hand and so another order has been placed. As a result it will be a few days before the next update. As always all comments welcome. Cheers Dave 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davek72 Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 Ok so work has been manic but I did manage some bench time....what I was less good was taking any photos!!! 😀 So I am calling this one finished. Sorry for the quality of the photos. In the photos it doesnt look like the matt varnish worked very well but it looks much more satin in real like. As always all comments welcome.
