        Hi guys,
        Thanks for all the concerns and ways to locate the mojo whereabouts, apparently it was hiding in 2024. Finally got my reflective paper to replace the mirror which for some reason just didn't look right in the Belvedere dio. The thickness of the mirror made a distinct 1 mm depth all round the edges so here's to the correction that I'm going to attempt. It also will hide the crack that the mirror had developed. Remind me to by Ikea next time.
        Also I have started on the fire extinguisher and trolley. No pictures though until I get my phone repaired, the cats pushed it into their water bowl which was below the cabinet I put it on.

        One of the mojo urges is weathering the Revell PT 109 I have sitting on the shelf. Haven't touched that since deciding to put it in a diorama.

        Also will dabble in painting my Bedouin and donkey and the Afrika Korp figures.

        The Mig15 is in the midst of scribing...lovely old Monogram kit.
        When it rains, it pours doesn't it.

        Hope you guys are having a good start to the new year.

        Cheers,
        Wabble

          Glad you're ready and raring to go Richard, like you I've decided to finish off the plethora of unfinished projects laying around my cave - one of which is the Bedouin and Afrika Korp diorama - look forward to picking up some tips from you!

              Me too. Every morning I tell myself I'm going to finish painting the Fusiliers, but I end up doing something entirely different, and not even model related. It will come, I just have to wait

                              If modeling doesn't kick in I search for songs I heard in my past you know the ones that stick in your head and spring up at certain points in your life by just remembering certain lyrics and the tune and see what turns up through Youtube. Cheers me up when I find it.

                              Cheers,
