What we're building...

I've had a bit of a break from kits. Actually, I got a 1/32 ICM Polikarpov I-16 90% of the way to completion, but had a bad reaction between the gloss coat and the camo so it took an angry trip to the bin. 
Currently I'm building a Hasegawa Fw 190-D9 and the Trumpeter 1/350 Dreadnought. I've built the former before and the latter is a hideously intricate kit.
And I'm still working on the Japanese layout. I've decided to scratch build the buildings and that is the next step. Hopefully I'll be showing this in the 2020 convention which is going to be held in Christchurch, so I have a deadline to work to.

Yes, every so often there comes a time when it’s not worth the effort to resolve issues. I originally had two bound for Christchurch this weekend but the final finish went wrong on the P-39.

Really nice Glenn, who/what are you building it for? I'll be over there again in two weeks I could take more photos if you want but it looks like you're past that point.

Liking the mill house as a point of difference. Any figures going on it? What scale is it?
Now that the Mustang has been rescued from the Shelf of Doom, time to get some more stuff moving off the millpond of unfinished kits (hey, its my segue and I’ll use it if I want to)
Another Hasegawa 1/48 OA-4M conversion, this time using the Phase Hangar Resin conversion
Correcting, detailing and backdating the Trumpeter 1/32 A-10.

It’s Hasegawa rally cars going on for me at the moment, and Martini Lancia in particular. Decals just finished on one and just started on the other. After that it’s just final details to finish off, and it’s on to the next project!

This is coming along. The colours look too bright under the unnatural light. Next up, a million decals.
