Ever complete a model but forget everything you did? So, when it came time to recreate a color or technique you couldn't remember how to do it? This happens to me ALL THE TIME. So I figured I would try something a little new for me. Gonna try and do a build log.
Due to a cross country move, I have been unable to work on anything for over a year. I have recently gotten my model "studio" (garage) set up and now have the chance to get started working on projects again. After more than a year I figure some skills and habits have atrophied so I want to pick a project to use as a "refresher". An inexpensive kit that I could exercise some old and try out some new techniques on.
That being said, a year or so ago I added a few inexpensive Revell model kits to my stash; the 1:48 P-50B Tiger Shark and 1:48 Spitfire Mk. II. These kits are "basic" in that they don't have many parts and are low on detail. A WWII kit seemed a perfect subject to start with, since mistakes may be more easily masked with heavier weathering more common on WWI aircraft than more modern jets.
