I'm hesitating over entering this one.
While I have a head load of ideas (ranging from simple paint jobs to complex scratchbuilding/kitbashing) we are awaiting replacement of all the flooring in the house following a minor flood in November.  While this is only supposed to displace us from Stately zen Manor for about a week I have this nagging feeling that events will conspire to extend things.
So i'm holding off until i'm walking on new floating floorboards.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That sounds like really bad water damage if you are waiting on Floating Floorboard's, though I thought all wood floated.  :unsure:

Hope your insurance covered it mate and that it doesn't overrun to much. :thumbsup:

Our insurance is with a company with business ethics who pay up rather than the one who quoted the lowest.  So far they have been very good.

The only prep done on my Skyrocket was sanding off the embossed decal placement markings, back when I got the model last year. I hope that isn't enough to prevent me from using it.

A student of Monty Python is what I am, Holy Grail is where that came from. You can tell if someone is a witch because they weigh the same as a duck which also floats.
