WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart
CF-199 complete.  Now starting on the Bandai 1/48 Star Wars AT-ST.

Anthony
Tending my own garden. Trying to clean up the Shelf Queens. Reorganize the shop. Building up Inspired by Ian from OTB, I’ve been cleaning up, purging the stash, abandoning projects that will be too difficult to move forward with; “life’s too short for shitty kits”

Terry
Working on Moosaroo Cup entry, now on construction which will need to combine painting steps.  Re-set canopy on the P-43, hopefully, it will work out pretty well.  Started cleaning up parts on Randy Cooper’s Hammerhead Corvette and the Halberd Models Turbo Cavalier conversion.  Using the Mega Sanding Block Wet Sanding Tub for this one, probably 8+ hours of wet sanding so far.
