As did I. Loved the cloaked Bird of Prey  ;D  and I know exactly how the guy/woman/person feels who's attacking the phone.  :angel:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I do like that Arado taking off! And you can't go wrong with a RN Buccaneer - Phantom - Gannet scenario  :thumbsup:

Pictures very much appreciated.  Thanks!

Was there a class that had to include a mobile phone then?

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! :)

Thanks for the pics, Fred. Quite a few there l hadn't seen. Well chosen.

l particularly like the subtly of the screen ripples made by the bikini lady. I mean, it's a sociological statement, that. It works on so many levels. Would have got my vote.
Whatever.

Thanks, Fred.

It appears the ongoing fascination with VWs will last well into the future, then...  ;D

And the Arado diorama was well done, cool thinking outside the bax.  :thumbsup:

And the underwater Corsair dio was pretty neat, too.

That was entitled HMS Ark Royal.

They were in a miscellaneous class.  There were actually four, titled IIRC Anger, Serenity, Overwhelmed, and Monster.  The first two are above and all of them are in the flickr folder if you follow the link.  There was also a series of four small vignettes of people looking at art which I liked.  Again, they are in the flickr folder.
These builds were more art than "normal" models.

At the end of the flickr folder are larger versions of some of the pictures including the underwater dio.

- 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.

Oh yes, I went through your whole Flickr folder! Some amazing stuff there, and many were most unusual as well.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .
