If the rest goes as well as you've painted the dress, it should look good.

What! Surely it can't just be to protect the carpet? I seem to recall you have a large garage or out-building so couldn't you use that for modelling?

Mac is short for 'Machine'. Obvious init? Nice work so far Mac.

Very nice. It must have taken hours. -
Nice work Gareth. It's bigger than I thought it would be.

Excellent. I said you could do it. Well, I think I said that. Maybe I did maybe I didn't but I definitely thought it. Think I did.

Thanks for the photos Leo. it looks like another excellent show. -
Exceptionally good Mac. The mottling is just right.
-
The rigging looks excellent.

Looking good with the colours going on.

Would be for me as well. I've eaten my way around several NT orchards in the past. It's a shame more of the properties don't harvest and sell them on, rather than leave them to rot.

What I want, what I really, really want (damnit that bloody song ). What I'd like does tend to vary over time, the ones which seem to persist are a decent (and preferably affordable): 1/48 Hampden (I'd even be willing to pay the new Airfix/Tamiya type prices for a good one).

Wow fantastic. And we whinge about rigging biplanes. -
Yes it is a very good kit…..with minor issues. The whingeathon continues. The doors aren't separate parts (another of my many pet hates) although on a Scammell they are really easy to cut out if you have a razor saw. This is where the one of the minor issues comes in….if you cut the bottom of the door on the outside of the part (front cab sides) the inside doesn't match up. Don't cut from the inside line as it will make a mess on the outside. Again, it's easy to rectify – with a thin strip. Elsewhere on the site I mentioned that I wanted to tart up the
