WHAT’S ON YOUR Bench.

Stuart – Some smaller kits such as Bandai’s Death Star II were completed over the last month and a half. I have a Meng Spice Harvester from Dune to be painted and weathered and I’ve started a Revell 1/24 Land Rover Series III

Geoff –  nothing. Sweet diddly squat.  Up to my neck in a 1:1 home demolition/renovation with lots of “surprises” that – like most surprises – were unexpected!  On the positive side, the F16 I built as a USAF pilot’s retirement gift was very warmly received, as was the C47 in Rocco Flamefart Fire Rescue markings, which now has a place of honour on my brother’s mantle.  Also still plugging through the latest ex-modellers stash and library…

Terry – Christmas birds are done.

Tony – I’ve been working on a bunch of (Premium) P-Bandai Gundams since September. There are a total of four Master Grade, (1:100 scale) Gudams which were re-released in special black and neon colors. Included are Barbatos, Exia, Aile Strike along with the original RX-78-2.All are being built straight out-of-the-box, in an attempt to breathe some life back into my numerous, ongoing modeling projects which have been relegated to my Shelf-of-Doom!

To date, I’ve completed 3 of them, (Barbatos, Exia and Aile Strike), with just the RX-78-2 Remaining.

In the meantime, I recently started two Gundams from Netflix’s Requiem of Vengeance series. I just finished applying and cleaning up a wash I applied to my assembled RX, and am in the midst of trying to do a color conversion of the dark gray portions of the Zaku. I’m looking to give these parts a metallic look, but using diluted AK True Metal (paste).
