lmagna Posted March 5, 2020 Share #13 Posted March 5, 2020 Don't drink pop very often. Don't snore at all, as SHE would kill me if I did, (She sometimes snores though, ) Can't sleep more than an hour or two at a time anyway without waking up and shifting from one side to the other. BUT I HAVE slept in Hammocks more than once. You have to do some special things to stay warm while camping but some of my best nights sleeping have been while hiking/camping and sleeping in a hammock! Those crewmen had it pretty good in the old days when they slept in hammocks and the officers were stuck in bunks! popeye the sailor, Old Collingwood, Canute and 2 others 5 Quote Lou Build logs: Colonial sloop Providence 1/48th scale kit bashed from AL Independence Currant builds: Constructo Brigantine Sentinel (Union) (On hold) Minicraft 1/350 Titanic (For the Admiral) 1/350 Heavy Cruiser USS Houston (Resin) Currant research/scratchbuild: Schooner USS Lanikai/Hermes Non ship build log: 1/35th UH-1H Huey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Collingwood Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share #14 Posted March 25, 2020 I might start this later today, as I have reached a stall with Mossie due to needing to Rattle can but I will wait till the risk of spray fumes aggravating the admiral. So I thought as Acrylic bottle paints give off zero fumes, I should be able to start building this and plan to get to the Rattle can stage for the frame sprays (with any luck things might have settled down in a few months time).

Old Collingwood Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share #17 Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Evening all, So as I said - I have put Mossie away in a box and decided to start this, first off I looked over the spit-structions page one called for two sub assemblies that are lower hull wall sections that have a few fittings attached to them - lever's, covers and bottles, these were glued done then put aside, also I cut away the two fuselage sides - these needed the normal light tidy up and a pip cutting away, there was a few moulding holes that I filled with plastic putty, this was then put aside to set. So I have made a start - its a very very nice kit very good accuracy and quality the dry fit join of the fuselages is excellent. Sorry for the last pic - didn't know it was oof till after I took it.

Old Collingwood Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share #20 Posted March 26, 2020 Hi all hope everyone is ok, more work today - I continued with the cockpit sections, next off was the framing and a sub frame attached to it, very precise placement was required but they fell in to place well, I also drilled out a few holes in the framing and attached one part of the PE included in the kit. Oh - I also sanded down the areas in the fuselage side where I had filled some of the injection pin marks. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share #21 Posted March 27, 2020 Good day all, I thought I would give a bit of back ground info on the reason for me building this - its about my late farther again, as well as his service on bombers he also worked on different versions of Spitfires and Hurricanes, he actually started on these before moving to heavier aircraft a year or so later. So - he was based at a RAF base called West Malling (famous for its Battle of Britain use) he was a Airframes and Engines fitter and did various jobs on both Spits and Hurricanes. This is again a build in his memory.

Old Collingwood Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share #25 Posted March 29, 2020 Hi all, Another good couple of hours, I touched up the green then picked out the Black fittings, then a few items in flat Alum, then when dry (with hairdryer) I then ran a pencil to create some shading, next using white I I did some highlighting then I dulled everything with some flat coat. Next will be to build the seat. OC.
