Re: Shane's bench .
About time I posted an updated bench .
Puma and Wessex for group build , Italeri F117 , old Airfix Hunter FGA 9 and Pioneer Su15 Flagon. The F117 is now decaled , just a few touch ups on the canopy to do .

Re: Shane's bench .
How does the Flagon go together? Is it one of their better kits?

Re: Shane's bench .
James , its not too bad , some sink marks around locating pins . Plastic is quite thick and has a rough cast texture , couple of coats of primer and a rub down should see to that . Other than that its quite a basic kit when compared to the new trumpeter one .I'm not moaning for £2.00.

Lots of cool stuff on the bench Shane, I could handle seeing more of the Flagon, I've got one of those PM ones.
Looking great

Re: Shane's bench .
Now that the Wessex and Puma are finished i'm going to crack on with the Flagon. I need to dig something else out to keep it company . I was thinking of a Matchbox E-6B Prowler or Voodoo.

Re: Shane's bench .
I'd go for the Voodoo as it's the better kit.

Re: Shane's bench .
Not much happening at the moment, some filling work on the Flagon intakes and wing roots plus started the Angel interceptor for the group build .

Re: Shane's bench .
OK its a new year so I really should get some kits polished off. Lost the modelling mojo in the run upto Christmas so the Angel didnt really get any work done . Thats been put away for a rainy day . To get the juices flowing again I decided to dig out a couple of old Matchbox kits, the Hawker Tempest and Hurricane . Always seems to work in times of need! Also on the bench is the Su-15 ( still) mpc/ertl X Wing plus new mold Airfix Spit mk1 and Hurricane 11C.

Re: Shane's bench .
You seem to have a lot on the go there Shane. Some very nice kits.

Re: Shane's bench .
Happy memories of the MPC/Airfix Stars Wars kits as I got the box set of A, B, X wings and the Tie Interceptor for Christmas when about 10.
