Here are a couple of photos of my latest three. There are more photos of all of them on my web site (the titles below the photos are links to the pages on my web site). The pages also contain a good bit of information on the kits and the problems I ran into building them.  Trumpeter F-105G Tamiya F-4E Trumpeter A-10ARight now I've got a Tamiya F-15C and a Trumpeter F-105D on the bench. The F-105D is being built for a man in Florida who flew them in Vietnam. The model is of his plane and will be as correct as I can get it. Thanks for letting me share them! |

Thanks, guys. Glad you like them.
Been kind of down in the dumps the past week. Resigned from my job last Friday (depressing). Had my 54th birthday on Saturday (depressing), went to a model show and got 2nd place (good), and found out one of my best friends was killed (VERY depressing). This is the second friend who died on my birthday. Now I can never forget it happening. Every year I have to go through the same feelings all over again.

Thanks for the support guys. I really appreciate it. It's a long story I won't go into here, other than to say it was just a tragic waste of a fine person.
Glad you enjoyed the jets, and Bill, I'm more than happy to help with the acrylic questions. They can be tough to get accustomed to but do work quite well once you do. All three of these were painted with acrylic over an enamel or laquer base.

AHA!  , Over an enamel base!! Hmmmm. As for lacquer, I have never used that on a model b4. Will want to talk to you bout this sometime soon as I am about to embark on a career of Airplane building  !!
Be good & have Fun,
