Hey guys I’m back. Sorry I’ve been so out of touch but conflicting hobbies and other stuff in life have kept me from building. For an example of a conflicting hobby see the 1st pic of this post (my Honda RC51). On a nice day it’s a great distraction.
That being said the colder months are on their way here in northern NJ and it’s time to get the cob webs off this project (for winter #2 coming up).
I did get some great motivation to start building again from a well packaged parcel from FL! Paul of
www.airfieldmodels.com completed my pilot / wheels / gun. I wish the photos I took could give the pieces justice.
Also see a few articles on his site that shows the process of mounting and painting the bust and gun construction…

BTW the AMAZING weathering and shadowing on these pieces gets me to thinking of the rest of the models finish (which seems very far away right now). I’m thinking just the covering and decals might look too “clean” to match. I might have to consider some weathering techniques once I get to that point…
