have been at the Small space show at hanslope today.  It was very good, had a lot of stuff on display and for sale,  but was rather hot, I managed to get my copy of the Blake's 7 roleplaying game signed by Michael Keating ( played Villa Restal ) , picked up a liberator teleport bracelet kit, some second hand space marines, and a mug with the original Liberator concept sketch on it ( with the egg shaped power plant not the sphere shaped one)   had a chat with OGL and showed of a few of my figures ( blakes 7 crew, and federation, the Scooby gang, and some 1999 astronauts).  had too leave at around 1 as Mrs SP was starting to melt in the heat, and I didn't want her to get heat stroke.
a good few hours  :thumbsup:

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

ive done naff all modelling due to the heat, and it worry's me not  :thumbsup:  wile it has been rather too warm, ( Mrs SP starts to suffer heat stroke at 29C)  in the end it could be far worse.

ive done a bit of tidying and watched some AMVs and read ( and reread) a few books.   :thumbsup:

Don't blame you. Once it hits about 30C, or there abouts, my brain starts to shut down and I just relax, i.e. lie around  ;) Doesn't happen that often though. ;D

What? No chocolate swiss rolls?  :o
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! :)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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