While waiting for the glue to dry on some figures that I was assembling my wandering eye drifted toward some model aircraft that I had yet to put away in the Pile Of Guilt. The old classic Revell/Monogram kits were destined to employment in my Chinese Air Force (to oppose my recently completed Japanese forces). Knowing how simple and easy to assemble these kits are I thought to myself, "Why not?" (this sort of thinking has led to all sorts of trouble over the decades) and within the hour they were completed. To this day I am amazed at the excellent fit and design of these ancient models. I was forced to wait a couple of days to get them primed due to weather conditions but after that I was done in the blink of an eye. Now I am berating myself for not sticking to plan and finishing the Soviet Air Force, ah well, now I'm back to painting French Guard Artillery and assembling a horde of Victrix Carthaginians for The Housemartin (more on that later).
Nice work indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray! But I really have to stick to my plan and get the Russians finished before I branch out too much. My plan is to sort out the Russians then the Chinese followed by the Finns. Then perhaps a Spanish Civil War or the U.S. "Yellow Wings" era
ReplyDeleteNicely done. I think I had one of those P26 models when I was a kid?
ReplyDeleteLiking those a lot. I had the P26 kit when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteExcellent models my friend. The Japs will burn in the china sky tonight.
ReplyDeleteI got any army of Carthaginians painted. Just need to finish the shield. This project has been on the shelf of dooms since Victrix released them
