Over the two weeks before Thanksgiving, I was able to complete two aircraft. They're not done, but they are done. There are a couple parts missing or things not done that I can't fix, so until I find replacements or figure out what to do, they are being declared done.
First is this RPM 1/72 scale Russian Be-4 float plane used on Russian cruisers and battleships in WWII. It is an odd little bird and this was a very short run kit, but it is finished:
I had to raise the center pylon which lead to me lengthening the support braces and so I should also have lengthened the outrigger pontoons. I probably will someday, but for now, it is being supported in these pics with a pair of tweezers.
Next up is a Hasegawa 1/72 scale Spitfire Mk.VIII. I lost one of the wing guns, and the tip off the other, but everything else is complete. Therefore I'm calling this done rather than leave it on the Shelf of Doom because of a couple parts. Also, I only got one shot of this, all other attempts to shoot more ground-eye-view pics failed so here it is:
That's all I have for now, Now to go post my finished armor for this month. Thank you all for looking in, comments are welcome.
