Evening gang. 570, Jim , Si , Andy, Wouter ( Thanks mate glad you approve) Pete. Richard, Rick , Paul. and Peter. Wow thanks for those comments.

For Pete's
interest, I prefer to use Kappa Board, that's the yellowish one. The backing peels off easily is by far the best one to scribe. I had some white, but the cell structure is not as tight.
The only supplier in the UK is the 4DModel shop in London.

Had a good day in the cave, mainly working on the building.

Pete , note the difference in the board, the white on the right and on the base behind the Tiger, a close up will show the difference in the structure.

Have a nice drain pipe to put in that internal corner, the building is glued, but not fixed to the base.
Want to have a contrast between the stone cladding on the building and those sets in the road, think a light sandstone for the cladding might look good. Then plenty of smoke damage and some chard ( joists to be burnt )

Hi John. In my limited experience of both tank builds and of your previous work I'd say this is up there with your best! The tiger looks the absolute business and your weathering is nice and subtle. looking forward to the conclusion

Looking great John, nice weathering on the Tiger and neat wood and glasswork on the building:thumb2:.

Thanks Neil. I'm starting to enjoy using the Oilbrushes, certainly needs time to experiment and learn .

Most excellent work comrade Race,
The detail in your stonework is truly something

Kind of you to say Si, as you know I'm in my element now. Hope to get some colour on tomorrow on the walls.

John my friend
That is looking great I’m impressed with the broken glass. Don’t feel bad it took me several try’s put the wheels on my 1/48 tiger And I’m still wondering if I got it right. After all the work I will end up losing the wheel go figure. Keep the mojo going you have a HUGE crowd watching. I think the Yorkshire tea is gone

Thanks Lee, don't enjoy the model building part as much as the painting and buildings. What no Yorkshire tea !!

:smiling3::smiling3: your right there Paul .

All looking good John :smiling3:.

Thanks Ralph.


Been in bed for a couple of days, picked up a cold :sick:
Problem is with having asthma an infection can spell trouble. Having kept in the warm should hopefully keep the cold off the chest.
This means spending time searching the web esp U Tube and then buying quite a few items that " I must have "
So now waiting for various things too arrive. Might get a coat of primer on the building later .
Coffee has just arrived , goodbye.

Building is looking good 453.

I trust your good lady has put more in your coffee than milk and sugar!

Hope you are up and about and fit again soon.

Yours,
The Kenco Kid aka 570...... Other coffee makes are available.
