Wolf! Many thanks, brutha! I was glad to find you here as well- your Mossie is as wonderful as I would expect of a fellow of your talents. I used to dat a girl who had been "bitten by a mosquito"- twice!

Thanks, gents!

As ever, delightful and entertaining. Cheers, Wolf!

Thanks, my friends! It's a project outside my comfort zone, and I'm learning a lot from it. I hope to get a little bench time in today, as the kit for my first magazine article build hasn't yet arrived. I'm really excited about that, and the subject is an old favorite that I've been itching to build. Stay tuned- and cheers! Here's a bonus- I know it's been reviewed here before, but you may enjoy it.

Thanks, Harvey! Progress! Here's the latest from my bench- enjoy! It may be a while before the next update- I've got another project that will sideline the LanceR for a bit. I'll let you know more about that as soon as I can- cheers!

So this is what you've been up to! Brilliant, as ever, my friend- cheers! Thanks for the tip on the Great Planes debonder- that's on my shopping list and will hopefully be available at the LHS. I'm taking notes on all your mix-and-match techniques, as I'm faced with a lot of that on my current build. Your posts are always an interesting and informative read, as well as candy for this modeler's eyes. Thanks!

Delightfully nutty- cheers, Jamie!

As seen on Facebook! A superb build- cheers!

Simply brilliant- cheers!

Thanks to all! LSP_Kevin, these updates do take time- thanks for the appreciation! Cheers, Mark! Thanks, Tom- that view is ever-changing- such a beautiful place this is!

Thanks, guys! Life after a big move throws a lot of surprises at you, along with all of life's regular highs and lows. Just in modeling I've gone through periods of not even looking at the bench, to hours of studying the subject and subsequent squalls of charging ahead and then banging my against the table. It's been about 7 weeks since my last post, so here's a long one for you. Forgive me if I reiterate some basics- my original mission remains to instruct and entertain, and help grow our beloved hobby. Cheers!

Absolutely beautiful!

Isn't that lovely! This machine was such a hot rod- your build is stunning, Wouter- cheers!

Now THAT is some serious soldering work- cheers!

Good gravy! "some tiny little bits no-one will ever see..." Glad I've seen them, then!

A real beauty- love that scheme. Cheers!

Thanks, gents! Sneak peek:

Now that's interesting. The 190 looks amazing; I'm looking forward to more on the 88 with pleasure. I'm really curious about those fully-open gear bays!

Another beautiful 88- cheers!

Fantastic!

Many thanks, my friends! You are too kind to this toiler of the vineyards. Main wells: in! Bottom wing: on! Time fill the seams on that latter, and whatever else I can sneak in today. Side notes: Those grooves in the wing were for a fiber-optic lit version that was never produced. That also explains some odd moldings on the two fuselage bulkheads. There is also a bulkhead to close off the cockpit front included on the clear parts sprue! It's not mentioned in the instructions- a friend pointed that out to me. Cheers! chuk

Thanks, Tom!
