Wolf Buddee

Thank-you all for the birthday wishes!
 
I’m still around but I’ve recently immersed myself in working on a car model. There’s a whole new world in aftermarket stuff for vehicles!
 
I had to have emergency surgery for a perforated ulcer the beginning of February. I spent two days in ICU after surgery and having gone septic, it was unclear whether I was going to remain on this side of the grass or not. I spent three weeks in hospital, I don’t remember anything of the first week. I was off work for a full two months. I’m still dealing with some residual effects of the surgery these days but overall doing much better. I sold off some of my stash and while going through it I discovered just how many car models I had so I figured it was time to have at ‘er on some of them. That’s why I’ve been a bit scarce here. It’s kind o’ like moving to a new neighborhood and finding there’s so much to explore. In my best Arnold Schwartzenegger voice, “I’ll be back.” 
 
Cheers,
Wolf

Oh wow Wolf ..! 
My uncle went through something very similar back in the early 60s ...
I'm happy you're still on the "upside" of the grass ..!
 Its allot of fun exploring different genres of the hobby ..!

Happy Birthday, Wolf! Glad to see you back, and even more glad that your medical emergency has panned out successfully.

After a very long time I’ve finally managed to build something from start to finish. I was extremely excited when I heard that Meng was releasing this kit as I was sure the WnWs DR.1 was not to be. It was definitely on my “must have” list” when it was released and it was, IMHO, worth the wait!
 
I hope you enjoy the pics.
 
Cheers,
Wolf
 

 

 

 

 

 

 
With some WnWs stablemates!
 

 

 

 
Thanks for lookin’.

Fabulous Chuck!
 
Fantastic build. I’m going to have to reference your build when I finally get to mine. So many projects……so little time.
 
Cheers,
Wolf

Lookin’ good Bill!
 
Love the detailing and paintwork my friend. Great to see you back at the bench. Some day I’ll find mine again.

Freakin' awesome!
 
Very well done indeed Sir. The very last pic is amazing.

Beautifully done Gary! 
 
Great photos too and wonderful paintwork on both plane and figures especially when you consider they're 1/48th scale.  
 
Cheers,
Wolf

Thank you very much!!
And an artistic one by my close friend Alex Kontiveis!! thanks Alex!!

Looking forward to you getting back to this in fall Chuck.
 
I just picked up this kit from a friend of a friend who passed away after a lengthy battle with Cancer. It sure looks nice and even included Airscale’s cockpit set.
 
Now if only someone would release an F6F-3 windscreen for the kit. That would open so many more options eh? I much prefer the tri-colour schemes.
 
Cheers,
Wolf

Beautiful Mustang!
 
……..and done in just the right markings. I love the spiral on the spinner!
 
Cheers,
Wolf

Looks great Chuck!
 
It’s all coming together brilliantly if not always easily. This, however, made me laugh: “This view confirms that any spark plugs attached to the rear of both cylinder heads is a waste of time.” Just think of the poor bastards that had to change those plugs for real!

Uber awesome on so many levels Jay!
 
Are you going to bring up the outer surface details to the same level?

Awesome film!
 
Hey, if they're just going to scrap 'em, can I have the Fiesler Storch? I'm pretty sure, with the wings folded and some air taken out o' the tires, I can get 'er into my garage!
 
Did I say "PLEASE"?
 
Cheers,
Wolf
