WHAT’S ON THE BENCH

Stuart - CF-22 got the top coat of a lighter grey but I am not happy with the med grey I put on the wings. May be going back to the original lighter grey.

Trying some more painting experiments on several Battletech miniatures.

Terry: Some moderate progress on the Moosaroo Cup preparations. Progressing on the 1/72 Destroid Tomahawk. The joints get painted grey, so they have to be done and masked before the tan body bits can be painted.

John - Newer tool 71 Revell Olds 442 I got away from Cars for a while and I am enjoying getting back into it.

Xwing in progress, F4F wildcats. And other things that keep calling me from the stash.

Stuart - The Times: How the Newspaper of Record Survived Scandal, Scorn, and the Transformation of Journalism by Adam Nagourney
