    Well done Alice. He looks a really cute and handsome chap.

    3d printed Monocycle Speeder

    That's brilliant. Your 3D printing has come a long way in a short time. The last picture, showing how it comes from the printer, is quite impressive.

    Taping

    Underlying paint must be fully cured otherwise there is a greater risk of damage when the tape is removed. Also the paint needs to have gone onto a clean surface to improve adherence. Preferably a primed surface. I always use Tamiya tape.

    Hold My Beer

    A great idea which Ron would heartily approve of. Watching with interest.

    All done

    Glad things went well and so quickly. Wishing you a speedy recovery. I'm another who was surprised by how quickly things went once the hospital was involved. My GP sent me to the hospital, cancer diagnosed and my operation was scheduled within 5 weeks. From my first contact with the hospital...

    FROG 1/72 de Havilland DH 60 g Gypsy Moth

    Looking at what you started with and what you've ended up with is truly amazing. Most definitely a silk purse from a sow's ear. Top modelling.

    Tirpitz with this and that, slow return for me

    Great progress. Lots of bling - very fragile, lovely detail and very neat.

    Stefee's Hasegawa 1/24 Datsun Sunny Pick up.

    My thoughts are with you at such a sad time. Pick up looks superb. A lovely tribute to your brother.

    Papa695s 1/72 Airfix Hawker Typhoon Mk. IB

    Looking great. Those after market parts certainly raise the detail level. The engine looks superb. Chopping bits out to fit the am parts is nerve -wracking but you seem to have it well sorted, neat work.

    1/35 TAMIYA StuG 1V

    You're making fine progress. Looking very good.

    Eduard 1/48 A6M3 Zero type 32

    That is looking great. The damage and wear and tear is very realistic.

    Boatmans 1/200 scale USS HORNET CV8 BUILD AN LIGHTS for the Doolittle raid on japan

    Looking great. Those crew figures really bring it to life.

    Bogged down Boris

    Superb. A great model in Ron's inimitable "Blue Peter" style. Great story. A fitting tribute to a wonderful guy, sadly missed.

    Build the red barons fokker tri plane

    Quite a bargain. As Peter says it will turn out to be a cracker.

    Whooooooops

    Oh dear. Hope it's not painful but will be expensive.

    Airfix B17G ‘ Pleasure Bent’

    That's a great result.

    You can't park there mate!

    Great progress Andy. Pure Blue Peter modelling, Ron would have loved it. I inadvertently once bought some of those rubbery figures and they ended up in the bin.

    Tidy, tidy, tidy 😀

    Dear Geoff The local representative of the Tidy Bench Club (UK) has forwarded the photograph of your spray booth bench to me. I must confess to being most impressed and feel certain that such dedication to order and neatness makes you an ideal candidate for membership of this exclusive club...

    back to work

    Like Rich I just don't know how I had time to work. Been retired now for a long time and I'm busier than ever.

    "Come on Big D, fly" The Hunt for Red October.

    Better weather = orders from SWMBO = gardening. :rolleyes: Don't really mind but harder to find bench time. I reduced the height of the base slightly and edged it with 1.5mm balsa. Sealed, stained and varnished. Dallas is painted and lightly weathered with oils. In the film Dallas appears to...
