Greetings Rob! It's been a while since I dwelt in the marble halls of Pompey, Gosport, Havant and associated areas - but I still hold some fond memories of pubs, clubs and (the occasional) cafes! Interesting debut!

That’s from the later Brock on his own years Grrrr! Classic Hawkwind is from the Levitation album backwards …… Space ritual it ain’t! Bit of a Hawkwind nut myself to be honest.
 
All that, and I forgot to say wotcher! Welcome to the site Rob. Talking of your sharabang, You weren’t one of the guys living up the drove behind Odstock near Salisbury were you?
 
Hi Rob, very imaginative build and looking good.
For your question on clear acetate, I'm on the other side of the world so acquiring that item may be different from where you're from. There's a license plate shop that has discarded sheets that I can get some. Art shops are another...old CD cases are another source and if you're into scrounging vacuum packing on products can be a source too but attaching them will need othe types of glues.

Cheers,
Richard

Not a haunt of mine, but I knew an artist who moved up there to live. He now sells paintings of the period on Facebook. What with that, and the annual Stonehenge festival, there was quite a lot of counterculture around the area. It was always a pretty good place for musicians as well. Funnily enough, where I live now is about twenty minutes from worthy farm, the site of the Glastonbury festival.

Welcome to you Rob.......From the good old USA....Been to Portsmouth and a lovely little town it is!! There was these two "Birds" :tongue-out3: and well........that was 50 years ago, I was in the Navy and my mates and I had a lot of fun while visiting your fair Country. Glad you're on the forum and I hope to see more of your talents in the future. Evergreen Styrene comes in clear sheets of various different thicknesses from .005 of an inch on up. Readily available in hobby shops the world over. ;) Rick H.
