    Meanwhile, somewhere in Europe

    Well, the slings are done - think that they look ok, need a little touching up with paint I just noticed. Still, as a first attempt, reasonably happy with them. CA used was Gorilla gel

    Meanwhile, somewhere in Europe

    Nearly there - 'dry fit' to see if I've missed anything obvious and to make sure that the figures will 'fit' (had to build under one foot so far, and need to slightly move the 'lower lookout', as he's 'talking' to mid-air!), need to raid the garden for some 'vegetation', and get a few other bits...

    Swarm season!

    Not much chance of those hives blowing away! The middle one a poly hive? Most of the colonies here have had an extra super put on them in the past couple of weeks. At last the shed is slowly emptying! The 4 hives in the garden (some of the spare equipment on the right of the first photo, there's...

    Swarm season!

    Just had to attend a swarm call, go back later to pick up the skep that should have the bees in. Just glad that the people who had them turn up, checked the local bee association website for swarm collection :thumb2:

    Bit more work on it, and I think that it's ready to be put in place (with a little levelling)

    Italeri schwimmwagen

    And it's near enough done - might have to do a little more weathering, but I'm calling it a day.

    Italeri schwimmwagen in 1/35

    Definitely on the last few bits now, just a few bits and pieces of finishing touches to be done. Oh, the mirror I spoke about earlier - quite pleased with the way it's turned out - even blown up in the photo

    Postie just dropped these through the door - got to wait until the pin vice turns up to use them though!

    Meanwhile, somewhere in Europe

    Been doing some more rocks, next point will be siting the schwimmwagens wheel points and 'levelling' so that there isn't a wheel in the air!

    Italeri schwimmwagen in 1/35

    Latest Acquisitions (2021)

    Just ordered a couple of things, not sure if I'll have much use for them, but cheap enough to sit and do nothing. And a double of

    Italeri schwimmwagen in 1/35

    Ready for the next stage - joining top to bottom and filling the joint (forgive my habit of using up the paint on the brushes by putting it onto somewhere that is due to be painted!) As Jakko spotted, I use a box as a 'workstation' - saves trying to find the little bits on the bench, the theory...

    Thanks, it's got some tiny parts - some, I'm leaving on bits of sprue, just so that I don't lose them!

    Italeri schwimmwagen in 1/35

    Dry fit top and bottom - wouldn't want to take it into a paddling pool! (You can just see some of the filler on the back) Whole centerline filled inside and out, sanded on the outside. Will update as I go.
