Many thanks, Lads.  Waiting for a Blizzard to arrive. Up to 18 inches of snow expected with high winds over the next two days.  If I don't get totally buried, I may be able to get more done.

Something like that. I'm sure there will be plenty of it.

Snow hasn't started yet, so here we go. Sprayed some Alclad White aluminum on the exhaust outlets and the underside of the fuselage. Sealed with Testors Gloss coat.   Let that set and I'll start masking the underside and try to get some basecoat on the topside. AAACW

Thanks, Carl.  Yeah They called it this morning. I was beginning to wonder if they had done the right thing. This was 10:45 this morning. It had just started.  And this is 2:30 this afternoon.  Guess they were right. I did get the Tanks built and ready for paint, though.  AND took a nap.

Thanks, friends. Last pics of the night. Up to 12 1/2 inches of the stuff and still going.    If you don't hear from me in the morning, send out the Sled Dogs or the St. Bernard.
