Vidar_710 Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 My friend, Gil "DutyCat" Gregg passed away yesterday. My goal, should his wife allow me, is to finish his 757 on his behalf along with mine since we started these projects as a buddy build. Tracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hooker169 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I'm sorry to hear that, Vidar. I'm sure your friend would want you to finish it for him. My Condolences, Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vidar_710 Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Big disappointment on my 757. The AstroJet livery decals were a bust, particularly on getting them to conform around the radome/nose. Two sets, and neither would conform with the best products I know to soften and adhere decals. So, I reverted back to the old Red, White, and Blue Cheater line livery. Gils wife thinks its a terrific idea that I finish some of his project, particularly the ones we worked on together. I'll be finishing Trump Force One for him for this buddy build. He has a 1/700 Theodor Roosevelt in the works, which I modeled the water and base fore him. He also has a massive Seaview sub kit that he was finishing up... fully lit with interior detail. get that one done for him as well. Tracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vidar_710 Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Gil's wife has turned over Gil's 757 for me to finish building. I am finishing a few of his projects that I was involved with in one way or the other. Here they are together... Tracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vidar_710 Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Getting back to these two VERY soon. Looking forward to finally getting them done. Tracy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vidar_710 Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Digging these out of the hanger, I discovered my AA 75 took a ding on the paneling to the left wing... You can see how Gil and I approached the engine assembly a little differently. Not looking forward to filling and sanding his nice finish to blend the pods to the mounts.
