WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart – Slow and steady progress on the 1/72 Hasegawa YF-19.  Got to try the Dspiae MT-EC circle cutter for the first time and I’m really impressed.  The wheel hubs for the YF-19 nose gear are around 3mm and it did a fantastic job.

Geoff – Plugging away on the 1/32 Revell Lysander, but took an Easter break to build three old molds with some of my grandchildren.  Old Hasegawa 1/72 f105 Thunderchief and A4 Skyhawks and a very old Monogram 1/72 Bearcat.  No paint, kids snipped some of the parts and I did the gluing. Then decals placed as per kids instructions!   Also getting back to finishing the Hobbycraft 1/48 P-26 Peashooter that I started in the last century!

Terry

Still having fun with a couple of Bandai Yamato kits, both are 3-ship sets.  I did start a Garmilla’s Fleet set to join the Cosmo Navy set.  Beware the fragility of the Bandai decals!  I messed one up by applying Microsol and then touching it with my brush. These are not Tamiya decals!

That Dspiae ceramic file is VERY nice for plastic.

Tony – Working on a squadron of Star Furies from Babylon 5.
