Nice idea Ian I do have some kreigsmareine (spelling) doing mundane tasks\ said:Middle of the sea and out of fuel and a boat coming out to it with drums, hoses and the like. Or indeed in the process of refuelling it....Ian M
Why not make that boat a U-boat? Maybe removing a badly injured sailor for airlift rescue?Middle of the sea and out of fuel and a boat coming out to it with drums, hoses and the like. Or indeed in the process of refuelling it....
Nice idea but it would be too big to do shame really because if lived in a mansion I'd do it\ said:Why not make that boat a U-boat? Maybe removing a badly injured sailor for airlift rescue?
No need to explain mate we all go through tough times and we have to accept the choices we have made in our life\ said:Nah, I am where I am because of the choices I made (and sometimes were made for me) and I would not be who I am if it did not unfold like that.I am joking really because I've seen some of the picture outside of the subject, and it looks like you have a nice space, good yard, nice shrubbery around. etc.
I feel more limited in where I can display some of my works, but then when I think about it, all throughout my life, it's been like that.
It's the 'canadian spirit' of making the most out of the least, I guess.
It does need a bit of filling but at the time I flooded the joins with glue and it seemed to work , the one thing I didn't like about the kit was the cockpit frame there was no defined lines to work too so it took a bit of effort to keep the lines straight.\ said:I like Ian's suggestion of refuelling at sea. As for the model, nicely built. I'd say you were very courageous in building that on your return to the hobby, I built the Airfix Ju52 a while ago and it was a real filler and sand paper eater. Turns out well as yours has with a bit of care and attention though. Steve's comments about RLM72/73 colours (I think Steve meant the maritime colours as he wrote 72 twice) is correct, I bought the two colours for a German seaplane and there is very little contrast between the two shades.
