    Forgotten Fergie

    The roof has now been painted a light grey to simulate the faded dull effect of aged galvanized steel. I then added marks where the bolts would be and a lot of rusty streaks and marks. A final muckying up with a darker grey and a few yellow green lichens added and I’m very happy with it . The...

    Hopefully the CA will get a grip , the only way I could get the plastic ones to stick is with Copydex or something similar but its a bit too messy , I’ll try the paper ones first .

    Forgotten Fergie

    As promised the tractor has had a dusting to dull the shine a bit . One of Rons favourite methods for this was using Polyfilla powder but in the absence of this I used tile grout ( even more apt as he ran a tile shop before he retired ) To make it stick I misted it over with hairspray then...

    Actually mcdonalds have just started using a bigger diameter paper straw ( i know this cause I had a frappe only last week ! ) so theyre no good but a trip to Wetherspoons might be in order , I think theirs are thinner . Plus any excuse to go to ‘Spoons is a winner (y) (y) 🍻

    Hasegawa mitsubishi lancer Evo VI

    Beautiful job kaci , i do like a lancer , getting rarer these days . I used to work with a guy who had a tuned evo IV and he said it would spin all four wheels in third gear ! He sold it cause it frightened him to death ! 😆
