***************************************WHAT’S ON THE BENCHStuart – Work begins on the 1/48 AT-ST from Bandai.
Geoff – Getting close to the finish line assembling the 1/200 paper kit of the Graf Zeppelin, which I picked up on a whim from the Broughdale Stash. Started my 2022 year build for the club: a 1/72 Modelcollect paper panzer V1 mobile launcher. Fun and simple build, so I may actually complete it. Also started a 1/72 “Loon”; the US nickname for the JB1, better known as the Fiedler V1. Getting on a V1 kick!
Terry – I spent plenty of time airbrushing this weekend, both on the Moosaroo Entry and some other subjects. Steady work on the Dora Wings P-43, now it has a light coat of primer to view the many imperfections which need correction. Also purchased an Airfix Sea Fury,
