What's on the Bench? 2021

[rtfoe]

Watching battle 360 about The big easy at midway and guadalcanal .... got all the juices flowing so i have started this .... good fun it is too .......[ATTACH=CONFIG]n1155510[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1155511[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1155512[/ATTACH]

Looking good, just got me one of these. Always wanted a Vindicator. At one time Academy kits were hard to come by in these parts.

Cheers,
Richard

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a kit of a Vindicator made up. Interesting to see this develop. Didn’t it have some sort of cowling issue that led to it being called the “wind indicator” ?

Worked on the Vette this evening. Painted the interior, dash and installed and gearshift made from a pin. I added some Slot car wheels and tire I didn’t like the thin white walls on it so I reversed them to the inside and added the chrome Next is the decals and some more details. Then this will be leaving the bench.

Hi all
Not posted much here recently, I’ve been in a bit of a slump. Still, onwards and upwards…..finished these doggies. They are 28mm Oathmark figures by North Star Miniatures…painted with Vallejo model colour and tufts by warpainter.





….and….the obligatory calibration shot……


The riders will be along next. Hopefully about a week or so to paint them. After that I have different stuff to give me a change of pace.
Hope you like them

wow!

wow!

The slump was the reason that they took so long Neil. I would expect to get those done in a couple of weeks , there are only ten after all….but they took over a month….I just didn’t want to sit down and get on with them! Glad you like them though :thumb2:

Thanks so much Dave. That is a really nice comment to receive. Don’t think they’ll work for cat scaring though….I’ve got two cats, and one of them nicks my painting water every night…so much so that I’ve taken to refilling the container with fresh water and moving it to the front of the bench to minimise night visit damage!

Yes Tim I agree with others amazing work. Hang in there
