November was quiet on my bench with just two models being completed. That is a far cry from several months ago.

Currently on the bench:

1/144 AgustaWestland CC-295 Kingfisher - applying decals.
1/72 Lockheed Lodestar - carving of the main wings and fuselage has been started. I anticipate a late December or early January completion.

No new project for November as I await a book of plans for making wooden trucks.

Completed during November
1/144 Vickers Wellington
1/32 GM M216 Deuce 1/2

As I posted in my 1201 alarm, it is a busy Christmas season coming up so my modelling is taking a back seat for now. I still have the five aircraft projects on the go and all at the same stage of construction awaiting basic assembly.

 Greetings All.

 Slowly getting things together.

 My son's EDF is nearly finished.

 I have put together a DIY Vac form box which is yet to be tested.

 As a test I'm working on a 1/60 Fairey Battle canopy plug.

 Should be back in something resembling full swing next year.

 Cheers
