Now starting a Trumpeter 1/48 Westland Whirlwind.[foogallery id="3893"]Geoff - still plugging away at the Arado Amerika bomber project, but for a change of pace I pulled a tiny 1/72 Polish sport plane kit from the pile. An old kit from the Soviet era, but not too bad for detail, and very simple.Terry - Getting close to done on the Moosaroo entry. Lighting tests with the subject in the box, some slight tweaks to get things just right and I should be taking photos this weekend. I have some work travel this week, so I may not get any more done until then. One layer of dullcoat on the Phalanx, it needs another but it’s been very cold in the garage.***************************************WHAT WE ARE READINGStuart - Working my way through Stephen Baxter’s Short story collection called Traces.Geoff- plowing through a collection of “After the Battle” magazines - lots of interesting stories!Terry - Same as before, about 80 percent through Titan. Quite a ride, this book. I am eyeing an Osprey book on Troy, which has been sitting on the shelf for a while.***************************************SPONSOR AD #2Seans Custom Model Tools***************************************THINGS WE’VE SEENChris Meddings’ single-piece 3D printed P-47 engine with mountings. Painting a single-piece radial engine seems a challenge.Hands-on review of ICM’s B-26.***************************************THE LAST WORDFor more modelling podcast goodness, check out other modelling podcasts at modelpodcasts.comPlease leave us a positive review if you enjoy what we’re doing!Check us out: FaceBook, YouTube, and our very own website.
