I’m off on six weeks holidays to Europe so this blog will be fairly quiet in that time as I’m not visiting much that is military related for a change.

As the upstairs renovations continue my workbench is now closed.

During the last week or so I managed to work on the Tamiya (AMTech) 1.48 Ta 183. This is a nice little kit that’s fun to work on. I’m not even up to closing the fuselage together but have been occupied anyway. I’ve even tried a little weathering in the u/c and for the cockpit I’ve found a chalk in my stash that closely matches RLM 66 but matts down the paint surface. I’ll be using this again.

Next up is how my modelling area now looks.

And lastly this is the repaint finished on the Hulk Hogan key chain for my brother in law.He hangs it from his car rear view mirror. He loves the old Hulk more so than the recent version.

The plastic/rubber on this is starting to decay with little black grains coming loose.
