I needed to reach for my box containing the blue paints.
I needed the blue for my Biggles Sopwith Camel.
I also needed to move my box of finished HobbyBoss MiG-3s (4 of them).
Earlier I'd had to move lots of boxes, unfinished kits, to find the missing (now found) Camel prop.
Having found the Blue paint I needed, I sat to begin stirring it to Wolfmother rocking on the cd player.
CRUNCH.
Sat on the MiG-3s....not one could be rescued.
Terrible....I now have extra spares though.
But.......is this the REAL tragedy????
If I'd had ONE MORE MiG IN THAT BOX, I COULD HAVE MADE ACE IN ONE GO :wacko:.

Ouch! You've got my sympathies, Radish. Still, it could've been worse. You could've parked it on the pointy end of a MiG-23 instead.

Terry, this is clearly a sign from the Modelling Gods - they who must be appeased  :dalek:

Ive done something similar with an F-22, and after that i repaired it and made it look even better than before!

But the Camel and su-15RAD are progressing well. :thumbsup:

When life hands you lemons, some people make lemonade. Not our Terry, he uses it to make one of the funniest jokes ever! ROTFLMAO here!  :bow: :cheers:

Sh!t happens Terry!  And if one of the MiGs had been slightly to the left or right, sh!t really might have happened....!!! :o :o :o
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

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