Brian da Basher's 2nd Blitz
Brian da Basher:
Feeling full of get-up-and-go while enjoying the perfect eye-opener on this chilly morning
I feel like taking on another one of those early model kits.
This is another box-scale (1/86 I'm told) antique and most basic.
Quite the classic! This is one of two my good friend Bill sent me (thanks a million, amigo!). The other has a short-shot back end and wing-root leading edge. It'll get a more thorough treatment later.
Ready, set, go!
Maybe I should have some breakfast first?
Hoping to finish by supper time,

Kerick:
That’s somebodies collectors item!
Jut kidding, models were made to be built.
Brian da Basher:
The box was in very rough shape (nowhere near as nice as the pic I swiped off the web), so this kit was indeed meant to be built.
Here's the first update and it's starting to look like an airplane!
I feel like I'm finally getting somewhere.
It's important to keep your energy up during a blitz build. Proper snacking discipline is crucial.
Updates as they happen,

Kerick:
Those tail fins are so 1950s!
Carry on! Looks like fun.
Brian da Basher:
The new canopy is on and I got some putty in the gaps on those fins & rudders.
The nail polish remover I used to thin it is drying now.
The load-out is peeking out from in back.
Time for another snack. I need to bring out the heavy hitters for this blitz.
Mmmm....mint!
More as it happens,
Brian da Basher
