Gomez's blitherings - Temp halt in proceedings 🥸 27 Dec 🎅🏻

Update

What's happened ? Not much, a "ground handling accident" (I bumped it off the desk, to its destruction when it hit the floor, if you must know 😖), has done for the 109G and its been binned with unrecoverable damage 🤯🤬. Its not such a disaster as that might seem, it was a cheap kit (less than 20 bucks), but like all kits from that manufacturer, its decals were from PropagTeam, so almost worth the value of the kit, there were 4 different 109's on that sheet (still are !) all in perfect register, as expected from PropagTeam, my decal spares box has profited mightily, with the addition of that sheet. I know bods who buy those kits just for the decal sheets ! 🤫

The 109 E and FW190 are under paint as I write and both are quite safe 😎

I hate it when they fly before their time!!!

[WardWorks]

Life happens dunnit ?😈

I hate it when time flies before I've made any use of it. 😖🤫😗🎵🎶

I've put the 109 E and the FW 190 back into their boxes and into a drawer of stasis for the time being, want to git certain 35ths finished... The 4 concerned are at present sitting on the desk with various decal setting solutions doing the job on their decals. Once they're dry, I'll git the lil critters weathered and get going yet again on the twice stalled ICM Tiger II and the Meng Panther A.😎

Sounds good!!!

[WardWorks]

'Ere ya go 😋 👍

SiG-33B, Flak Half Track, Flakpanzer 38(t) and Marder have all copped enough weathering to look like they been played hard and put away wet (just as I like my tanks to appear) 😎 and just need a few tools and other details picked out to be finished - What's next on the Agenda ? 🤔 dunno, that can wait til tomorrow, after the paint's dry on this lot and they're on the shelf 😈

Teaser photos only, dun to spot glitches that can be fixed at the final paint stage - full photo sets in the appropriate forum when finished (tomorrow or the day after ! 😎

[WardWorks]

Oopsie ! 😖😳

Won't be that one (forgot I raided it for parts to fix my already finished Meng King Tiger, after it got dropped and damaged !)🤬🤫

I'll find something else, there's a couple of suspects on the list...😈

[JCON]

Oops!!! Waiting in anticipation...

[WardWorks]

Eenie... Meenie.... Mynie...errr... 😈

I reckon this one's the go boss ! Strictly OOB, apart from gun barrel replacement, nuthin' else to complicate matters 🤔



Got the Tamiya one around here somewheres to follow it (if I can stomach the inevitable feelings of deja-vu that'll engender, Tamiya reissued this kit in their own range/box) 😖🤯

Oh boy wheels not tracks!!!

[WardWorks]

Chassis complete, plus 8 of 9 wheels assembled (the 9th is the spare) 😋



Knocking off for lunch, back in an hour or so 🍔😎

[JCON]

Rolling right along!!!

[WardWorks]

You could say that... 🤔😗🎵🎶



Left the kit supplied internal details out, won't be seen in the finished item (I've had one of these before ! 😖).. The wheels are only attached temporarily... 🥸

All We need now is the gun and turret - THAT won't take long, when I git going again - its cuppa time ! 😎

[JCON]

Looking good!!!

[WardWorks]

One side now fully stowed, both exhaust mufflers fitted, spare wheel hangers are on, spare wheel is assembled, but not yet fittrd, rest of the wheels are complete but unattached (want to paint them and the spare first !) Other side needs stowage. Whew ! 😲

Then I'll get onto the turret ! 🤔😋

With any luck, it'll be complete and ready for paint by close of play today...(Says he hopefully😈)

Pics later, when she's fully stowed, but still sans turret ! 😖

[JCON]

Gonna have to change your name to Speedy Gonzalez!!! Wow!!!

[WardWorks]

Oh Gawd ! 😖

I think it only fair to warn my dear readers (you are dear readers aren't you ?)
(I'd hate to think you were cheap !) 

Stand by for some dodgy Mexican accents (ala certain cartoon characters) ... Ariba, Ariba, Undelay ! (ricochet noise) 💨

Ahem ! 😖Enough of that tomfoolery 🤫... might take the day off actually, already selected the victim for my next depradation, staying with the "Wheeled Armoured Contrivances" theme... 'Owzabout this one ? 🤔



Or howzabout this one for a "wheeled Contrivance ? 🤔



Matters not, whichever way I jump, that's the next two to be built (order yet to be determined)... its about time they were built, that truck has been in my stash forever ! 🤫 (Its actually an Italeri licensed rebox by Heller), nothing at all rare about it ! 🤓

Hope that lil arrangement doesn't give anyone indigestion (not too much anyway ! ) 😎

I like them both señor!!!
