Cosmic has landed. He is not carrying Fruitcake but he is packing fudge. :ha:

This is the Val kit

Look at him, in like an old pro.

Meanwhile I have encountered my first issue.
MIND THE GAP:

I have filled the gap so whilst that dries we are popping out for grub. Back soon.

Great stuff - Cosmic is the picture of concentration there or should that be constipation, especially if he's eating those parmos like you :ha:

Whack plenty of filler in yon Tempest, we won't notice!
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Filler has been applied to the Tempest & all is well.

Just about ready for primer.

Cosmic is in danger of falling down the gap between the wings & fuselage of his Val!

It's OK, he got a taxi between the two parts. :ha:

Currently we are watching Ripper Street, 2 bottles of wine consumed along with cider. 8-)
