Very good looking F-104 Papermate.Few months ago I had a chance to check out CF-104 in CWH Hamilton museum.They have one unrestored and disassembled out back.To my amazement wing leading edges are still very sharp,sharp enough to cut finger after 25+ years in storage outside.Very well fitted machine.

Wow, Gman, your collection is just awesome. Need to wear a safety helmet to work under those. So l see that you build large and small also, like them.

If nothing comes out of the blue all of a sudden, this will probably be my next project. Tristar 1/144.

Some of those have literally been there for years, but yeah its a hard hat zone for sure, especially if you happen to walk into one and catch an edge!

Yup, I routinely build anywhere between 1/48th scale all the way up to 1/12th. The smallest I ever built was HO scale but that was only by request for a film/TV project. The small scaled little ME-109's later found their way into a promo short on HBO along with an equally small scaled Panzer III...

Nice work on the Tristar. Did you choose the beer cans to resemble any particular livery?

Thanks, Josh. No, it’s at random.

Random can patterns make by far the most unique and creative patterns in my humble opinion. While there are times that I prefer lay the cans with purpose, such as when I am recreating a camouflage scheme or trying to replicate a unique pattern such as the Red Baron's Fokker Dr1, the 'let them fall where they may' technique often achieves the most uncommon, unintended, and striking results...

Couldn’t agree with you more. I normally do what comes to mind and check my stock to see if there is enough to work with.
