    You have your hands full with this multi-build project, Louis (@lgardner). I will for sure be following along on this one. You have a bunch of other projects going. Where do you find the space on your work bench? How many different projects do you have going now (not including your 1:1 projects)?

    G’day Pedro (@holzhamer),
    I’ve only dobe a few natural metal aircraft and have yet to find a paint that looks natural and is easy to work with - i.e. doesn’t rub off and works well with decals.
    I tried the different panel colour look with my T-33 which worked ok, but getting the alternate colour right is a bit hit and miss.
    I’m looking forward to how you go.

    G’day Louis (@lgardner),
    Three different types at once is a new challenge. Looking forward to that as well.

    Thank you Michael. Yes it could get “interesting” and chances are that I will build one at a time during this build. I will cover the Mustang here.

    I’m not going to be building these three just yet. I have to complete several kits before I crack open a new one.

    I’m really looking forward to building these three and it’s going to be a lot of fun. Thanks for stopping by.
