This is where I stand today:

     P61 -  Underside one coat of paint;

     P51 -  One coat of Silver:  but with shading differences which may be ignored - not expected to be finished for quite sometime;

     Two Martin Mariners - one a rebuilt model originally completed about 1947 or so -  both one coat of silver;

     CF101 - currently repairing mark on canopy; may be completed "soon";

     B29 - painted silver, awaiting clear coat of enamel to seal in the silver and masking and painting of cabin;

     Two Hellcats - all carved but awaiting painting; may redo an old Mosquito for painting practise first.

     Good grief but I admit I've got lots to learn about paints.

Best Wishes To All

Cliff.

Just passed 13000 views on flickr. With all the advertising I have been doing I would have expected that SMM would have gotten more visitors.
Merry Christmas to all

Santa brought an Academy 1/48 P-38 Lightning, some socks and a Blue-Ray player. The most fun part was going to the basement and placing decals on my Expeditor. Still having some problems with white decal film. The application of microscale liquid decal film after drying the spray decal bonder does help. Now if I could only cut a decent circle with the scissors, all would be well. Regardless, a very good day for me and the misses. She did not get any models, however she did get an early 35th anniversary ring. Here's hoping everyone's Christmas was as good as mine.
