Not that there is anything special is on this weekend, but I feel its time to ask the question, What is on the bench this weekend?

I plan on getting some paint down on these two Mirages and maybe even do some work on the Bushmaster which currently resides on the shelf of "I don't feel like playing with you yet".

Hopefully getting my 262 together - wings attached to the fuselage. Cockpit/wheel well essentially complete enough to go into the fuselage. Most re-scribing/re-riveting complete on wing and fuselage - will have to do more once these go together. Oh the joys of building Trumpeter! :roll:
Be nice to get some paint on the wheels & oleos as well - wishful thinking this weekend though. Be lucky if I get more than a couple of hours to myself - as usual!

Good thread Troy
You can sum up my work bench this weekend with the immortal AC/DC words "back in black"
I am, at the moment, tinkering with the 1:48 Spitty refurb WIF gloss black JPS air racer

and the 1:72 refurb gloss black civvie Jet Provost

FFS Ray. That's the Spit I was gonna do :o :o :o Not much bench time for me this weekend as I get back from TSV late tomorrow night and then have my little man Sunday. I'll probably crack open the little Tiger Moth and measure the DamoDecs regos against the rudder but that's probably it. Oh and of course open the myriad of packages that have arrived at home while I've been away. This online model shopping thing is a disease I tell ya :oops: :oops: :oops:

Mate, nothing wrong with having two JPS Spittys on the table next year, they will compliment each other :D . Mine is going to be my own unique interpretation of the black JPS scheme, (she will be carrying an Aussie rego..... VH-JPS), so our two Spittys will in all probability, not look the same anyway.
A 1:72 Dash 8 now sits atop the ever-growing pile of kits waiting for you at my joint. We will have to arrange another pick up, (still haven't worked out your final bill cause you keep adding more and more to ya stash :D ).
