scvrobeson Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 I'd like to jump in to this group build with my Wingnuts F.2b done up as a Home Defence Nightfighter using the kit decals. I've got the HGW photo-etch set for it, and will try my best to add some other details here and there. Now with the school year over, I should be able to get some real building in. I'll try to get the first pictures uploaded at the beginning of the week. Matt Wackyracer, Kagemusha, Alain Gadbois and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 So far, it's just been prep work. This is definitely an early WnW kit, so it's not quite as beautifully refined as their later kits. So I'm cleaning up ejector pins mostly right now. Matt MARU5137 and John1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted July 12 Author Share Posted July 12 Yeah, work is going on. Just seems to be one of those builds where I'm not happy with what I'm doing. I just can't seem to make it look like I want it to. I'm still pressing forward, obviously. But I'm not sure if the work so far is up to standard enough to show on here.

MARU5137 Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 Matt, You put yourself down which is not necessary as you build nice models. I wish you'd post pictures because I bet your build is just fine. Keep it going. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Many times when I look at my build through a camera lens I see the area that is bugging me. Take a few photos even you do not post them all.

monthebiff Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Matt, your build threads are ways a pleasure to follow as your work is just superb. Looking forward to seeing your progress pics, don't be so hard on yourself! Regards. Andy MARU5137 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted August 7 Author Share Posted August 7 Sadly, I think I'm going to be putting the Bristol on the back-burner for now. I'm not sure if it's a mojo issue, or an ambition outstripping ability issue, but I'm just not enjoying this one the way I expected to. I know that I'll get back to it, but with school starting on Monday, I know my modeling time is going to drop significantly here. Sorry to everyone looking forward to the build, I'll probably have to revive it in the normal WIP forum when the time comes.

MARU5137 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Matt, I understand as others will. As you say, you can shift it to normal WIP and take your time. Enjoy the new term at school. Hope the kids enjoy it too. scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
