Howdy Fellow Modelers,
Those of you that know me will recognize my work area. And those of you that dont - this is it.
I had taken the last year off from the hobby as my Kit Collection had gotten so large I could not stand to look at it anymore. Well now that I am 600 + kits less I have actually felt like building again.
My First Build was the old "SuperModel" Fiat BR20-M kit.
Hand painting all those spot's really was a challenge.
The Next Build was a 1/48 Tamiys Rufe that was a Gift from a fellow modeling friend of mine.
I used the "salt method" to beat it up some and painted the "meatballs" and stripes on the float.
And while I was working on the "Rufe" I pulled out this "Art Model" Blohm & Voss BV155 V-1 I had started but hid away.
Ok - I know what your thinking where are the Airfix Builds ?
So , I have a box of kits that have "conversion" kits for them. I dug out this old Airfix Dornier DO 217 E-2 to convert to a K-1.

Mock up
This will be a slower project as I need to design some type of Interior for this.
Stay tuned

Great work on the Fiat and the Rufe. The B&V is very unusual - never seen one before.
I'm a mostly full-time modeller put a part-time poster....

Re: Summit's Shack
Thank you to all who have visited and commented.
The Do 217 K is on delay as I have not sourced a Interior pic yet to base a resemblance to.
However I pulled out this 1/48 MPM Vacu kit of a Polikarpov I-16.
I scratched up some bits for the office even though they will be hidden.
Very little filler was needed and only for my mistakes.
And the finished
Thanks for looking !

Hi Sean glad you have seen the light and come back, I have only been here under a year, so missed you work last time.
Those are very impressive builds, I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Summit? I do know you from somewhere
Thats a real cosy corner there and every time I see this Fiat BR20-M again I don't know what to say - thats just way too good.
