The sanding party hasn’t totally concluded but the end is near. The process has been steady and consuming. Fortunately I am over the hump with just a few small areas to fix.
The Frogfoot was the worst of the three by far. I believe I have it under control with just a few areas to correct on the intakes. I put the wings on today so I can fill any gaps while I am fixing the intakes. They actually look pretty decent. I don’t think there will be much to address.
The Canuck was not the funnest to fill and sand either. For the most part, it’s ready to move on. The tail section was installed today and it will need some sanding and filling. The wings were installed as well today and they look pretty good. I will get some primer on tonight to see what’s in store for me.
The intakes on the Kfir were installed yesterday and they didn’t have the greatest fit. I sanded and filled them last night and shot some primer on. I added a little more filler today so hopefully I can move on. I went ahead and attached the wings and filled the gaps at the wing roots. There are only minor issues to complete on the Kfir before I can start working on painting it.

Thank you. It’s a struggle to stick with it sometimes but I’ve just gotta plow through. It’s all worth it in the end.

As a fellow builder, I wanted your opinion on my latest post (not the one here at WP, but over at blogger. I wrote about “the spares box”. I don’t know if this is true of airplane modellers as well, but thought you might be interested. If not, please feel free to delete this comment.

I do the same thing only I limit what I save. My criteria of saves are ordinance, wheels, anything cockpit related, and pilots. I used to save every spare part but it got so overwhelming when it came time to search through the pile, I decided to narrow it down. I also have a spares for unused decals as well. Great post!

I have decals that have been sitting in there since the 70s.

I’m curious about how they will react.

Most definitely. They might be ok if you spray some clear on them first.

Thanks for the recent like on my site. And wonderful work, here (both your site in general and the hours and hours of craftsmanship). What to do you with these models when they’re completed? You could practically fill a small museum with your output.
