Greg's multi build.
Re: Greg's multi build.
Not a lot of progress until later today folks. I have a load of housework and other stuff to do today and I have to make a delivery for work to the local aircraft museum (Some guys get all the lousy jobs ) so making a start on these again later today. I've got until 23:30 GMT to finish them.
All the best.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Right Greg is on the case but is going to have to move light lightning to get the three done. I have canned the idea of getting the Mossie done. Taking the first pic and getting painting.
All the best.

Re: Greg's multi build.
You can do it.
Would ya like to learn to fly? Would ya? Would you like to see me try?
Re: Greg's multi build.
I hope so. The ACAV is almost done but I have just started doing the green cammo on the Hurricane and 109. I now have just less than an hour to complete the three. Pics upload will be sporadic at best.
All the best,

Re: Greg's multi build.
OK. I'm stuck on the Hurricane. The canopy is missing. It was there yesterday but is isn't today. Sarah told me that little Greg had hold of a couple of my model boxes but the ones she pointed out both had parts missing and it looks like he had hold of the Hurricane too. Unless I can find it in the next five mins it's out of the game.
The BF109 and ACAV are done and pics will be uploaded at 23:30 then posted.
All the best.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Final batch of pics, Thanks for watching and sorry I didn't get the four done. The Mossie has a warp on both fuselage sides which effectively put it out of the game, Had I been doing only the Mossie maybe it would be do-able but with the other three it was a no go. The Hurricane would have been done had it not been for the missing transparencies (The canopy was painted and it and the landing lights needed gluing on)
The ACAV is out of my comfort zone with it being a tread head build bit I think it doesn't look too bad.
The BF109 I am not happy with because the rear of the canopy fogged and I broke the aerial off just before taking the pics.
There you go. Two out of four. A shame really but I tried. Now for the pics.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Cheers and all the best.

Re: Greg's multi build.
The Airfix Mozzie is something only a lunatic would try to Blitz (so, yeah, I'd probably try it too!.. just not with three other builds sat the same time!)
Other than that,two out of four ain't bad... like the 109 scheme.. let's have some glamour shots..
Oh, and well done!

Re: Greg's multi build.
Well done on this Greg it was a brave and ambitious attempt - I would never have gone there! Two out of four is pretty damn good.
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Cheers for the kudos guys. The Mossie wouldn't be too bad provided I got time to concentrate on it but unfortunately today got a bit too busy. so I would have struggled to get it done anyway but I would have given it my best shot.
I do like to challenge myself sometimes and on one blitz I managed to get an Airfix Sunderland built with added detail.
All the best.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Good effort Greg. Hope you do finish them up.

Re: Greg's multi build.
That's a really great job on the 2 you finished and then got very close with the 3rd. You are now my official Blitz poster boy!

Re: Greg's multi build.
Well done on them Greg, great job! Just the thought of multiblitzing stresses me out.
Agree with other, two out of four is really good.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Great job getting the two finished. I take it the Hurricane's canopy hasn't turned up yet after it's earlier disappearance.

Re: Greg's multi build.
Can't find it anywhere. The landing lights I can make but I'm stuck for the canopy. I have a master for vac forming Hurricane canopies some place so if I can find it I may be able to use that to crash mould one.
All the best.
