discussion What a soggy day!

[Caustik Filth]

Hi, just got a break from the rain thought I'd say hi. I'm a forum newbie and hoping to pick up a few tips.
I got modeling again after getting a dad's day present and bashing (?) it about a bit, making a first-time diorama, got a ways to go but it was fun therapy! Let me know what ya think I'll try to post a pic if I can fathom how. Cheers Rob.

Thanks Not entirely sure! Started out as a 109 but then found little figure from Alternity minitures so made her a bunker and chopped up the Me 109 to fit in ?

 

[The Smythe Meister]

HA!! Yes indeed....
It's a warm welcome from me too mate
But as Pete said,what is it?.... Looks to me like a kit bashed 109 with some steam punk type additions, surely something like that couldn't fly?!!
As for your groundwork.... No need to stress about that... Very nicely done

Thanks Chris I'm still finding my way round the site. I used to live in a " sharabang " in the 80's and 90's. A 1953 Bedford RL with a caravan bolted to the back and want to build a version , so where would be best to ask advice on what to use for glass in a scratch build caravan? Cheers

Welcome to the forum Rob.

Excuse me while I speak to my learned friend Tim .

That’s matrons flying needle gun, that’s what that is :thumb2:

Yes very like it Tim, perhaps we should explain to Rob who and what Matron is.

Rob , Matron is the good lady who administers the needle when one of us becomes unwell, or excited. The new hyper injection system she uses is based on the A10 warthog multi gun , so looks very much like your build.:smiling3:

 

[Caustik Filth]

Wow! Thanks for the heads up guys, formidable looks Matron indeedee!!
