It's been a wild few weeks and I had to move the #Swearrings shop to deal with the volume of sales, but move we have. Now at https://earfull.co.nz/ I've got a special discount code valid for 10% off until Valentine's Day. It's #SecretSantaNZ2022 in honor of our humble beginnings. Shipping now "free"*
*not really free, but, you know, included
#SecretSantaNZ2022 #FlatpackCorsair 4/n
The next three pages of the instructions and where it's parked for the day to let the glue dry before painting. Never had to use a black and decker in my modelling before (one of the pieces needed thinning), but there's a first time for everything
#SecretSantaNZ2022 #FlatpackCorsair update (also will start threading this, so we're up to 3/n)
Masking applied, with some of my usual tape sneaking in where the stencils didn't come off the paper properly and first four pages of the assembly instructions completed
Finally getting around to this, one of my long weekend projects is going to be putting together my Secret Santa 2022 gift. Which looks simple, but I've found a way to complicate it slightly. I found a picture of the real thing (which happens to be the exact aircraft for the markings in the kit). Since I'm a modeller, and the markings are already scribed on the wood, it's a "why not?" to apply some technique and paint it. Plus it's almost all one colour.
Presenting: #SecretSantaNZ2022: The Unwrappening!
Thank you so much to my Santa - your generosity is greatly appreciated. May you and yours (and the rest of the wider #SecretSanta team!) have a most excellent Christmas and New Years. See you all next year (here on Mastodon!).
Playing my #SecretSantaNZ2022 gift last night and I was reminded on how brutally hard old arcade games were.
And 3 lives?! WTF! Even cats get more than that!
