All of sudden I want to do three things : build a model, go to Scotland, and sip a 22 year old whisky ! Cheers

I finished some F-16s this weekend and started posting them on the forum.
The rest of the week it's all work again so no modelling.

Hopefully I can get something done next weekend.

There's even a US Navy one there!
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! :)

Didn't you know that one of the Bf-109T-2s of the Graf Zeppelin had to make an emergency landing in Panama and was evaluated by the US Navy?

Oh of course, so silly of me, I'd forgotten that occasion.  ;D  ;)

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

- 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.

Picked up some of this at the airport in Brum, only made for the duty free shops. From their web site:

QuoteThis Travel Retail exclusive is named after our unique Faraday Still, which is a single copper-pot which produces a flavoursome spirit of extraordinary strength and purity and was designed by Dr David Faraday, descendent of the ground-breaking Victorian scientist, Michael Faraday.

I'll drink to that!

The last few weeks were very busy with finishing my models for Euro Scale Modelling, the Dutch IPMS Nationals which is held next Saturday (23rd November)
And all I wanted to finish is finished. cpe63, Hobbes and me will be manning the What-if stand.

Apart from finishing my models I was also responsible for the registration of all traders and exhibitors. There will be 175 participants, totalling 641 tables in three halls.
If you are situated near Houten, the Netherlands, come on by and say hello!
