**** DONE: 1/48 Ryan STM-2 - Pacific Theatre of Operations II

[CommanderBounds]

The more I look at this ,the more I think about buying of of those and building it into a rusty old plane that has been sitting in a shed for almost 40 years which has been dug out by restorators. Well I know what to do now with my money! Also nice work on the model. Must say the paint is very well done and the scheme you chose is great! Looking forward to seeing the end result!

Thank you kind sir and welcome to the forum! This has been a fun little kit and I can't recommend it enough. Give one a go, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Real sharp Andy! You did a wonderful job in the camp and rigging. I can't wait to get started on my float version for the seaplane GB but I need to wait until my Pacific GB entry is done.

 

[chris brown]

Man, that paint job looks sharp and great job on the rigging so far!

 

[Gnomey]

Nicely done so far Andy!

 

[Wildcat]

Time for an overdue update! I finally managed to get the upper rigging done which I somewhat struggled with, at one point I was going to leave the wire off altogether. The wind shields are attached leaving only the tail rigging and a dull coat to finish off the model.

 

[Wayne Little]

Nothing wrong with that Andy...looks good mate...

 

[Wurger]

With Wayne here.

 

[Gnomey]

Good work so far Andy!

 

[Catch22]

Looking good Andy!

 

[vikingBerserker]

I agree, very nice job!

 

[Wildcat]

Thanks for looking in guys!

 

[Capt. Vick]

Gorgeous!

 

[T Bolt]

Looking real nice Andy. Can't wait to get my current GB build finished up so I can start the float version.

 

[vikingBerserker]

I really think the rigging is what makes the model so nice, glad you added them.

 

[Wildcat]

Just about finished now guys, touched up a few areas and applied the matt coat.

 

[fubar57]

Said it before and I'll say it again, that is one spiffy looking aircraft.

[Wildcat]

Thanks Geo! I've finished the last of the tail plane rigging so I'm calling this one done. I'll post the finished thread as soon as I can get the mandatory photos done.
