Rembering Ron.
Well, Ron did like railway locos didn't he, so I've started this in his honour. If anyone feels it's inappropriate I don't mind if it's moved. No glue or paint needed, so I might actually finish it in a reasonable time. After the first afternoon's work I had this: which looks like good...- stillp

I always thought it stood for Silent But Deadly, but that must be something else...;) Those aircraft are looking great Chris, in spite of their small size. Pete- stillp

Thanks for all your kind comments. I was getting frustrated with it, because I'd thought it would be a reasonably easy build with my shaky hands, but it wasn't! Very few of the parts have any positive location so they just need to be glued in the right place, which I suppose is proper...- stillp

Rembering Ron.
Sadly I'll have to bow out of this - a great idea but I have no experience of dioramas or vignettes. I'll dedicate my next build to Ron anyway. Pete- stillp

1/1 paintwork
In my rallying days I was often surprised at the state of some people's cars - sills stuffed with newspaper and skimmed with filler was not unusual. One nearly killed me once; I was navigating for a chap with a Corsair with what he described as a Stage 3 engine. He claimed to have fitted a strut...- stillp

Well, here it is at last. Certainly wasn't an easy build but possibly worth the effort. Any Harry Potter fans out there? Any questions, please ask. Pete- stillp

Update on Ron
Very sad news. Ron's humour, as well as his modelling skill, will be much missed. Condolences to Justine and the rest of the family. Pete -

Eduard Lavochkin la7 1/48 completed
I finished painting a 1/72 Eduard La-7 a few years ago, and left it in the garage for an hour a yard or so away from a fan heater on its lowest setting - the undercarriage legs warped. It looked as if it'd had a very hard landing! I wonder if Eduard were using a very low melting point plastic...- stillp
