WHAT’S ON THE BENCH
Stuart - Got the decals done on the Tamiya 1/48 Sherman Firefly. They went on very well.
Geoff - had the grandkids for the weekend and did two”weekend builds” with two of them (the third wanted to draw). One grandson chose the ancient Revell 1/72 PT 109 and my granddaughter chose the even more ancient Revell Nautilus nuclear submarine. He wanted a more realistic scheme, but she wanted pink, purple, red and yellow…! A lot of fun!
Terry - No changes. Not much progress. Doing plenty of yard work now, spring is springing.
Brent - Not much time for things, Ultra 7 ship from Hasegawa. UltraHawk. A couple of busts, including a Keatan Batman. Both sculptures by Jeff Yeager
