Pete.
Just arrived sorry I'm late Matron refused to give me a pass.
I have brought my no mess bib. Might be good for modelling as well.

See no crumbs !

Sorry for the belated comment, been doing serious stuff of no importance. That is a good invention, but I have several questions about its usability - when you stand up, does it stay in that erect position or does it slowly droop into a verticle position? And if it does not droop, how do you manage when you need to dispose of the tea/coffee down the fountain of thought, or do you require assistance from Matron in guidance?

Pete,
Getting better every time I pop in for a look. Like the additional details and care taken on the blemishes - a true modeller.

Pete, I wish I had your skills to produce work like this.


For me its buildings, no plans , no instructions , so I can't mess up :nerd:

Hi Mike you say it gets better every time you look in, well can you look in every hour and it might end up not to bad when it's finished.
But thank you for the kind comment.

Hi John your more skilled that I could ever be there's nothing special about my work but I might be better at covering up the my mess ups than you that's about all.

Hi got the main part of the tank in primer I know it's a bit patchy and I missed bits sorry but it's not easy with hairy sticks, I don't want to lose the weld seams.

Thank you for looking in.

Looking good Pete, well if that's what you can acheived with a brush you should be really pleased. Even blown right up it looks perfectly ok.

Hi John thanks but it's surprising the effect you can achieve with bad lighting, slightly out of focus and a dirty lens.
Next time you want to blow up one of my models I've got something that would work really well and a place to do the deed.
