DONE: SBD-3 Dauntless "White 5", Swede Vejtasa, USS Yorktown CV-5, 1942, Group Build

[Wayne Little]

Yeah, I hope to as well....

 

[Lucky13]

Yup....got my paint yesterday.

 

[Lucky13]

Did some more today. Try to get her up to scratch with the BEAUTIFUL Wildcat, since I suspect both will need some putty....and I can putty the Cannies at the same time.

Have a look later to see where I need to top up on the paintjob...

 

[Airframes]

I say old chap, rather splendid don't you know! MayIi suggest you use a lot of putty on the Wildcat, thereby changing its shape, in order to give it some semblance of attractive looks? (Ducks and runs like *c@ !)

 

[Wayne Little]

You gonna take that Jan?....

 

[Lucky13]

I'll just keep the Airfix 1/48 Lightning to myself.....he knows what I'm talking about!

 

[Airframes]

Ah...er....em....well, the Wildcat does, perhaps have a certain charm here and there maybe!!
Is that enough grovelling?

 

[lesofprimus]

NO!

 

[lesofprimus]

And the pics look good Jan...

 

[Maglar]

Lookin Ace.. The wildcat is a beautiful plane!

 

[Airframes]

Don't you start too Mag! The Wildcat is an ug....oh! The Lightning! As I was saying, the Wildcat is a wonderful, curvaceous creation, with it's stunning, svelte-like lines far superior to any other carrier borne type.
Right, that should do it, I should be ok for awhile now, and still get the Lightning. (whistles tunelessly as he wanders off....)

 

[Wayne Little]

...more grovelling Terry...get to it!

 

[Airframes]

Aw! The last bit really hurt! I haven't done the course on 'Grovelling for Beginners, Part One' yet, so I find it extremely
frustrating and complex. At the moment I'm totally over grovelled, bushed, almost passed on, like a Norwegian Blue parrott, but without the beautiful plumage.

 

[Lucky13]

You know, the funny thing is, I can end up with TWO Airfix 1/48 F1/F1A/F2/F3 Lightnings..... Now, THAT would be something, two Lightnings, a Hunter, a Draken, a F-100, F-104, F-8.....some beautiful jets on that shelf! 8)

 

[Catch22]

Looks good Jan!

 

[Wayne Little]

[ccheese]

[Wayne Little]

C'mon man, more pics.....

 

[Lucky13]

Hopefully some painting done today or tomorrow....got the right grey for the lower camouflage but the bluegrey, that's another story, that one I'll have to mix!
