Those coal spoils look good. Don't know if that stuff could be culm. That was the rock and stone remains around the breakers, after the mine run chunks were broken into commercial sizes and loaded into twin bay open hoppers. There were culm hills in the Scranton area with all the leftovers. Locals mined these hills to extract any remaining hard coal. I had friends who still heated their homes with this anthracite.- 457 replies

She looks good. She worked NY harbor for years.

Those are some beautiful street lamps. 👍

I can hear "Proud Mary", the old Creedence Clearwater tune made famous by Tina Turner, playing in the background. Your paddle wheel is coming along nicely.

I really like how your barge is progressing. Waiting to see how your load turns out. 👍

Interesting model, Alan. Your choices will look good. Heraldry at these scales will challenge a saint. Lead us on.

Just trying to keep the part intact and clean as you remove it from the sprues, let alone cleaning up the remaining nibs on the part. Must be very careful. 🤞

Nicely done. Quite the formidable knight.

We did that to the Cape May, NJ to Lewes, Del ferry with our F-4s. The ferries were visual reconnaissance targets and not to be overflown. Well, most of the time. That's why lieutenants fly with adult supervision.

Fascinating animals out there. Got a high speed tour one weekend, way back when. The giant tortoises were very cool, as were the marine iguanas.

Very nice. I really like your tarp over a load. 👍

What's the mascot on the helmet? Looks like a she-lion or leopard. Or a hound. I read some book once upon a time that said the Plantagenets had leopards on their crests.

Nice bit of scratch-building, Andy. 👍

Looking forward to the rest of your" rescue", Jimbo.

I'm following, Alan. Interesting character, for sure.

Your boat turned out nicely. 👍 Can't wait to see the barge she'll be pushing.

And here I thought A. you had used a pink primer or B. It was pink for breast cancer awareness during October. Your build looks good.

Yves, you described what the F-4 is. A refrigerator strapped between two J-79s, going Mach 2. 😄

Here is the set for your Hustler: https://scaleaircraftconversions.com/moreinfo.cfm?FROM=search&KIT=105 You might check on the bigger on-line shops. They may have a better price.

Don't rush. Your body will let you know when you're good to go.

Love the way the colors work. Red is always tough, but your pink base coat works well. And the seat harness looks great. 👍 -
Glad you're back, Denis

I'm in, too. I got to see a real one, back in the summer of 1969, at an air show. The beast sat very high off the deck, to keep the 4 J79s well clear of the ground. LG looked spindly, compared to the KC-135 it was sitting next to it. Noisy takeoff the next day.

You might want to get an inexpensive travel iron for your sealing technique. WW III might break out if the Admiral finds you using her gear for this.
