I find myself asking the question of what to build next
I'd actually like to build something like a bomber or similiar I could go for the CAC Kangaroo ,but not really all that excited about another single colour scheme to choose from like the Fouga 90 was Hmmmmm or maybe something like this ?

OK Scratch that plan I'll be doing a 2.0 mtr span Lockheed Hudson

I had to make a new joiner bar for the Hurricane as I lost the original
so while I had them out I got a photo of 2 of my war birds together

I've actually been able to get colour on one wing ,but its been a struggle . For some reason it kept fish eyeing on the T/edge above the flap. Finally after sanding back 3 times it came good . I have never had this amount of problem before it was prepsoled before painting ,the only thing I could think of is that the prepsol may be contaminated ,I'll have to buy a new tin to see, still have the staboradboard wing to paint anyway, so I'm hoping it was just a one off thing
