Amazing!  :bow:  :thumbsup:  :wub:
I love the Delta Queen they scratchbuilt; I was considering doing a whif of her in USN markings as an armed coastal transport, or maybe as an alternate universe riverine assault landing ship.

I wish I had the time to do that level of work. And skill. And patience.
Well, mostly the time, because with time comes skill, and patience comes more easily when one has time.  ;D
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

This person must find writing his instructions on grains of rice a nice relaxing diversion! :bow:

I believe I may have just had an awe-induced heart attack. :rolleyes:
There are no good kits, bad kits or grail kits, just kitbash fodder.

 :o :blink: Amazing stuff!  :bow:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Nahh, Grains of rice are way to big and easy for this bloke! Superb diorama though

That's just impossible, my brain refuses to work at that sort of level. He must shrink himself down to at least 1/100 scale before every modelling session and then scale himself back up again afterward!  :o

I have an 'N' scale SW1 switcher that's not as well detailed as his 1/700 version, quite ridiculous. <sigh>
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! :)

Regards
Kit

I get flustered trying to do 72nd scale stuff :angry: That is just purely amazing!! I think if I had more patience than that I would be dead. :rolleyes:
I am just sat here in pure awe. Time to start knitting I think.
