Today's work, I started a little later than usual, so I only worked on two kits.
HobbyBoss Panzer IV Ausf.B ::
Started really good by loosing one of these tiny A20 part...
But still I managed to add a lot more to the top hull,
And then I started working on AFV Club IDF M113A1 :: working on the rear door.
That's it for now !

Talk about building against the clock Tidy work John Well I had a few things to take care this afternoon, leaving the house for a few minutes, then coming back, then leaving again.. so it was not the usual bench hours, now getting ready for some football and having something to eat.
Thanks Boots !!

Hi everyone !!
Friday's morning session ::
Miniart T-44 M :: Tedious Miniart Sub-Assemblies.. I did 2 out of 4 Step #9 pieces.
HobbyBoss ASU-57 :: Cleaning up 12 very tiny track links ( 3 attachment sprue points each.. ) and assembly of those links...
I couldn't find a worst thing to do after Miniart...
Dragon IDF M50 :: Joining Lower and Top Hull.
Revell F-89 D/J :: Adding the 2nd Fuel Tank.

Oh wow, Miniart have taken that suspension to completely new weirdo level . The tracks on the ASU 57 are a tad small and tricky to work with, I know . The M50 and F89 are looking the part now though

The M50 and F89 are looking the part now though Oh yeah.. they have.. since Fa1 parts have a squared tip that need to be aligned with Fi6 and Fi7 otherwise it won't work. Miniart being Miniart.
I don't know what was in my mind to start working that suspension at 09h45....
That's why the ASU-57 is way behind... as the BMP-1 too... but these tracks are the worst for sure. After doing 12 links I need to rest.

Great update, John! That F-89 looks so cool. And it looks we have another tedious Miniart assembly process on our hands. Looks like you have the matter well taken care of, John.
