It’s back to the grindstone with the Hs-129 and Ju-86 now that the F-18 is all wrapped up. I spent a little time addressing a few needs today but not enough to make a huge dent. What I did get done will set me up real well for my next session.
The Hs-129 and it’s gun pod kicked off the workbench session today. The pod has been attached and a few small gaps were filled. I also installed the horizontal stabilizers and affixed the engine nacelles. All little steps for now but very soon they will all add up.
The Ju-86 really didn’t get a whole lot of work done to it. I wanted to get the canopies installed but noticed I wasn’t quite finished with the interior just yet. Part of the horizontal stabilizer was attached and I will need to sand and fill a few areas there. The wings were the big triumph of the day. I think I’m out of the woods with them. I will get some primer on after I can install the canopies. Hopefully that all comes tomorrow.
You’ve got some skills! Is your collection registered with a build club or other entity? You must have hundreds of builds under your belt and it shows.

Thank you! I do have quite a few builds on the shelves. I think the closest IPMS club is about an hour and a half away so I’m not a part of that one. I just build them and go to the next one for now.

Yes they are. This is the turning point where everything starts heating up and coming together.

I was looking into getting a balsa wood model kit yesterday – wow – how prices have increased since I last did this!

You can say that again. It’s shocking at some of the kit prices these days.
