If you aren't aware yet the deadline was extended by two weeks. Maybe that will give you a bit of breathing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G'day Dennis, I was not and although that is welcome news, unfortunatley my deadline has not changed as I need to head off for a work trip and won't be back until after the deadline extension. I may yet make it though, fingeeez crossed, cheers, Pappy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappy Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 G'day people, I managed to squeeze in some plastic time today. I have started to add the dark blue The 65th used a very tight soft edge which in 1/72 would be difficult to replicate freehand (for me anyway) so I am using the worms method. I was able to do the wraparound section on the nose Some minor overspray but otherwise happy, but I am less happy with this section which will need re-doing The decal sheet diagram is a little small and so it makes picking out the various 'landmarks' a little tricky but still, no excuses, a poor tradesman and all that. I will keep plodding away until I head off but this will not make the deadline unfortunately, cheers, Pappy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappy Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) G'day people, Unfortunately I won't be able to finish in time. I would like to thank the mods for a great GB. No need to feel bad for me though, I managed to get very close to the real things yesterday, Plus lots of other great stuff, cheers, Pappy Edited November 13, 2022 by Pappy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
