Dang, too much work! I'm supposed to be "semi-retired" for cryin' out loud. How's a guy supposed to model? All right, 'nuf of that. I did get some more detail stuff done, spare tracks, a shovel mount, oil box (that box on the right rear fender, described in references as an "oil can storage box") and a couple of other bobs and bits.

Thanks guys. I was almost thinking I might get paint on before our upcoming trip, but I think I'll wait.

Well, for not having much time to work on models you sure got a lot done. I wish I could make that kind of progress. All of it is looking excellent as well!

Yep! So do I! I have so many quick, yet minuscule things to add to some of these models so I can paint them and I barely get any time even for that. Hopefully soon.

Enjoy the trip and the build is still looking fantastic!

Robert is correct. Retirement means you now start your real job,.........working on everything you've had to neglect since you had a "job". Bunker time, what's that? Fine work on the 60, enjoy you trip, too!

Thanks all! Yup, I got my end-of-year summary from Uncle Sam today, makes me laugh..... On the good side, I'll be in Spain this time tomorrow (or something like that), and I'm already thinking about hitting the Jordi Rubio shop. Gee whiz Wally, it never stops.

And more paint: tires, mantlet dust cover, fender flaps..... road wheels are fitted so I could roll them to paint the tires. I do love poly caps, thank you.  IMG_7833 by Russel Baer, on Flickr |
