That hanger pic is brilliant  ;D  ;D
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

THAT is a super Batcave !   
The evolution maybe will give them foldable wings .
It's a Land Rover, NOT a Jeep . Like a Jeep, but for gentlemen.

These cards look like fun. Is it supposed to be the size of a sports card or playing card? I'll have to take some better pics!

That looks excellent! I love the weathered black finish. :thumbsup:

The bat cave should be inside an airship so they can drop-launch through hatches in the floor. :wacko:

Yes playing card size, this jpeg should print at 100% and you stick front & back & laminate, and Bobs your Uncle  ;D  :thumbsup:  30 ish in a pack  ;D

If you google vintage top trumps you get the original idea  :thumbsup:

the silver weathering is just using a Pental paint marker super silver extra fine point (needs a varnish/kleer so it doesn't rub off though) :thumbsup:

I think the hanger pic is an airship hanger  ;D

Hanger.   :wub:  :wub:  :wub:


You learn something new every day dept;

Hangar.

A hangar is a building or structure designed to hold aircraft or spacecraft. Hangars are built of metal, wood, or concrete. The word hangar comes from Middle French hanghart ("enclosure near a house"), of Germanic origin, from Frankish *haimgard ("home-enclosure", "fence around a group of houses"), from *haim ("home, village, hamlet") and gard ("yard"). The term, gard, comes from the Old Norse garðr ("enclosure, garden").

Hangars are used for protection from the weather, direct sunlight and for maintenance, repair, manufacture, assembly and storage of aircraft.

So there you are.  We are all spelling it wrong.

<edit>  Mrs z has just informed me she was aware of the difference in spelling.  Why didn't I?

Oh no we're not!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
