mpk Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Hi guys. Tomorrow I get to play drums with David. David is the boy I built the 1/32 glider over 2 days as a gift. Well he turns 7 on Monday. Today being Friday, I have just one day. I'd usually go and buy a present but am unable to venture outside today. Wish me luck. Here is David eating a yummy cup cake I bought from a neighbour. A young woman starting out on her own business. I like to buy several every Saturday to help her out and share with people that come to drum every Saturday. David is a classic. So funny and also very bright. He smiles with his whole body. So funny. Wish me luck. Edited March 5, 2021 by mpk Gazzas, Out2gtcha, scvrobeson and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Good Luck! Nice subject, those Hasegawa racing cars usually build up pretty well but would take me a month! Models and cupcakes, living the dream. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpk Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I don't think it can be done. Trying hard but may have to switch gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I've been working occasionally on a Cromwell tank. It is nearly ready. I may switch to this. Gazzas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpk Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I chose in error. I should've begun with the egg plane. I'll need another day. Thomas Lund and Rick Griewski 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I will be able to clean up the build over a week. I want to give it a more interesting scheme. There's a gap along the nose. I told myself it was to be played with. But you guys know how a neglected fault on a build feels. I can now perfect it so it flies to it's end with cowling held high and proud.

mpk Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 Well I figured it's for a 7 year old to play with. The most important thing isn't a panel line, it's that he has it for his birthday. The decals fell apart. I was lucky to get the insignia. If I get time I will brush paint canopy frames. If not it doesn't matter.
