I always plan to take lots of progress photos but then I don't (;´-｀)

the 1st floor LOOKS mostly done but will need to do lots of interior work before I can do the next floor. Up to and including plans for passing the wiring from the upper floors down.

(Second floor is actually not glued on I just checking the fit)

Hetch Hetchy Railroad in Black & White On30 Layout Tour with Steve Redeker

This guy is justifiably proud of his man cave. Historic b&w photos of Hetch Hetchy -- as beautiful scenery as Yosemite -- and he's built the model railroad in black and white with just a little "color pop" for contrast. It looks good! And he's quite an interesting explainer.

The real railroad ran from the Gold Country between Jamestown and Oakdale up along the Tuolumne River and up and over Poopenaut Pass to the Hetch Hetchy damsite, since it was that dam railroad. So perfect combining historical pictures with the b&w models -- this might be one of the the nicest On30 model railroads!

And an interesting 1/48 scale 3D printed, all in one, pair of German soldiers

Finished stuff Friday!

At Airventure this year, they had all of these tables full of vintage model kits! Oh my, my jaw hit the floor. I picked up this Tamiya Mustang, an Accurate P-51, a Monogram F-8, and two Bearcat kits.

I'd bought this Tamiya RAF Mustang before, but I built it as a Tuskegee mount instead, since I had decals for it. Since this was an original boxing (1996) the decals were in pretty bad shape, and a few of them crumbled as I was applying. Luckily, I have a spare decal sheet for this kit, though the one I have must be a later boxing, because it isn't exactly the same. That one has all of the meatballs seperate from the roundels.

Anyhow, loved the vintage kits, the Tamiya P-51 is a perfect kit, hard to screw this one up. Painted mostly with Tamiya rattle spray, except for the yellow leading edges, the white nose, and the fuselage bamd which were brushed.

1948 Tucker 48 Sedans - Chassis # 1047

The models were issued by Brooklin Models in 2018. They are 1:43 scale and are crafted in white metal. They represent Chassis N# 1047, which is in the Gilmore Car Museum Collection. The car in the museum is displayed with black wall tires, so I changed one to reflect that. The models are finished in Waltz Blue/200. BRK 222c

Medusa - 1/48 Scale by Aurora Model

[sodastupidity]

Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire Mk.I, modified into Mk.II P8088 “Borough of Lambeth”

Decals are from Airfix. Brush painted and weathered with a pencil.

Despite being an older kit (first tooled up in 1993!), it holds up extremely well! Good detail and part fits with minimal gaps. Honestly my best work so far, also managed to make the door interchangeable between the “closed” and “open” position.

Score: 10/10, would recommend

Me, opening up an LED tealight without any idea how it works: pls don't electrocute me. I just wanna see 😰

Me, five secs later: I can totally put that in a fireplace!

Me, three hrs later, sitting at the dining room table with my head in my hands: omg why do I even try to do miniatures? I'm awful at this. It doesn't work. I've wasted $90 worth of glue. I'm never getting all of this paint out from under my fingernails. Everyone else is so much better. I'm a crafter, not an artist. I should just stay in my lane.

Me, two more hrs later, holding this thing over my head like Simba: I am the President of Miniatures! Look upon my works and despair!!!!

Finished Stuff!

I've had this car door Typhoon in my stash for ages. I started working on this many months ago, but stalled when I got to painting, mostly because I didn't have any of the spray paint that I needed, nor could I justify the 30 bucks in pain that it would need. A couple of months ago, I built the RAF Mustang, and it would need the same paint as the Typhoon. I could justify $30 for two planes worth of paint.

Pretty straight forward and simple build. The only trouble spot is where the cockpit it. Hasegawa makes the cockpit interchangeable between the car door version and the bubble canopy version. There are some seams there that don't match with panel lines that need to be filled. Other than that, pretty basic.
