 Re: Zvezda's Halftrack---in rust
John promised me on submitting his latest Peenemunde dio that he was back to 'normal' modelling again for a while. I think either his wife or the FAA has made him start taking his medication again. Vinnie

 Re: Zvezda's Halftrack---in rust
A bit of "normal" progress, on an utterly unremarkable model. Sure is "normal" around here lately.....Anybody want to build a potato cannon? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spud_gun

The square ones don't work so well Vinnie, that is why most people use the round ones. Matt

 Re: Zvezda's Halftrack---in rust
A small bit of "pilot dork" humor this evening. We've just landed in Kansas City. Kansas City is known for a particular type of cuisine. Can you guess what it might be based on this approach chart to the airport?  As far as the halftrack is concerned I've reached that point in the build where one is mostly doing sub-assemblies and making them ready to stick onto the larger hull of the model.  I've also been doing some sculpting on the horse.
