    Oldie Fan

    We've all done it. I sent a WhatsApp message telling my daughter what time to expect us to my neighbour whose cat we look after sometimes.😄

    Masking.

    I would also recommend Tamiya tape although there are other brands of tape for modellers which you could try. It is important to allow the underlying paint to fully cure before masking. Also using a good primer does help to make the paint layer robust.

    Brian's Sovereign of the seas

    Looking good. Just a thought "Do you have to steam/wet the planks to get them to confirm to the curvature?"

    AS 42 Sahraiana

    Looking great. Good call to paint the flag. Trying to use a decal would never have worked properly.

    Next figure painting project

    Wonderful figure. I'm assuming it is a 3D print. Some of these 3D printed figures are unbelievably detailed. Look forward to seeing it painted.

    Walked toward the light but turned back

    Bloody hell Jim, that's horrendous. Just so glad that you've come through it. Take care now and recover fully.

    Here in Shropshire today it has been hotter than ever but in the last hour or so the wind has got up, much more cloud and feels much, much cooler. Might even get to the bench tomorrow 👍

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

    Glad the deck went on ok in the end. That must have been a really worrying time. Looks stunning with the lights and the planes. At this stage you must be very pleased and proud of your work.

    1/35 TAMIYA StuG 1V

    Iwata are the best in my opinion. I have a top of the range H&S and two decent pistol grips but my Iwata is the best by far. Primer looks lovely and smooth. Thoughts are with you and Christine at such a difficult time.

    Brian's Sovereign of the seas

    This is progressing quickly. Experience with the Victory should help with this.

    Joe's Academy 1/72 F-16C Thunderbirds

    Good choice Joe. That's a lot of plastic for a 1/72 kit. I like the tinted canopy. - never come across that before. Well done cleaning up the seam.
