Can’t beat a bit of stowage to add a bit of interest....looking good mate:thumb2:

Looking really good Steve. Glad I've got a large screen monitor to look at this miniature work

Steve,
The stowage adds a whole new dimension.

 

[Steve Jones]

Hi Everyone

What do mean Lee? JR taught me!!:smiling5::smiling6:
Glad you like 'em Jim
Cheers Ian. Hit a brick wall now though:tired:
Thanks Si. Look forward to seeing your stowage ideas on the Jag:thumb2:
It really is small Mick. I have to pinch myself sometimes:smiling3:
I take it that is the official name for stowage Paul?:smiling5::smiling3::smiling5:
Thanks Scottie. I see you are at it as well! Must be catching:smiling4:

Evening Steve,
Sorry to read the build is bugging you, I get like that too, when the direction of the build goes left field:upside:...
..on a plus you’ve made some great modifications and it’s looking very good mate!

Get back to it with fresh eyes another time:thumb2:

 

[Guest]

It's not like you Steve ! :flushed:
This is where I would do a wreak :smiling2:
As you say put in the drawer .

Any refunds please, I paid £3.75 for a back row standing only ticket .

John .

But it’s looking so good Steve, as for the tracks on a base in soft sand/mud you would hardly see the tracks.
So stop feeling sorry for yourself and get it painted.:tongue-out3::thumb2:

 

[scottie3158]

Steve,
Sorry to hear your not happy with the build. I would love to see you finish it but it's your call if your not happy.

 

[SimonT]

Steve, with two kits worth of tracks do you not have enough to make one good set?

 

[spanner570]

I have to agree with Ian. Push on and get it finished. So the tracks are "C**p". Muck them up. You will hardly see them anyway once the model is completed.

The model is as good as finished. You can't stop now Steve.

Hi Steve
Lovely build. I've enjoyed the foray into exteme detailing. Those tracks really are terrible.

Nice to see you back on this one Steve.

 

[BigGreg]

Looking good with the wet stuff on.

 

[Steve Jones]

Hi Everyone

Me too Ralph:thumb2:
Great to have you along for the ride Mark. Hope you enjoy it
Thanks Ian. Good to be back
Not much done without the optivisor on this one Greg. Funnily enough it is the same size as the Panzer I, I am finishing off.:astonished: Mini update for you below
Cheers Paul. Looking forward to some detail painting later in the week

Looking mighty fine under paint comrade Jones . That little book looks like a great little find :thumb2:
