Thank you OC, the dog was a nice touch to the kit. I hope I can make him look good. alan

Mike I'm not sure if this works but here’s hoping. https://modelshipworld.com/topic/29491-flower-class-corvette-by-king-derelict-finished-bensworx-virtual-kit-148-a-log-for-the-less-gifted/#comment-840001 alan

Thank you very much Rob, a great compliment. I have some 1/350 kits but they are too big really for display, the limited size of my bench and my vision. I need to wear magnifying glasses for the work which limits my depth of field and with big kits I keep banging them about. I do have. 1/350 USS Wasp that I may make an exception for, I have some happy memories of that ship. with visitors from wet Wales , the sea being warm now and the beaches empty I don’t see much modeling for a couple of weeks. alan alan

The 3D printing was quite an adventure and it was a lot of learning but I enjoy seeing the finished model every time I’m in the study. Im also a huge fan of the Flowers. Ive a couple more 1/350 Mirage kits to build and I want to create another diorama with one of them. The Revell kit is very tempting though. alan

It’s really a good kit, nice details and generally well thought out. The track links are better than the Flyhawk ones but still rather fiddle. Im finding it works better if I add a couple of links at a time and then let them dry, otherwise the slightest nudge ends up disturbing the whole section in work. alan

That’s why my two are strictly indoor cats, that and they are long haired so they would be dragging half the undergrowth back into the house. Not to mention the wildlife might be more than a match for them, starting with the family of bobcats living behind the lake. alan

Hi Mike, no this is the 1/48th scale 3D print from Benworx. I was impressed by the one made by @yvesvidal so I bought a 3D printer and set off on a voyage of discovery. I’m trying to work out how to insert the link to my build log and failing so far Alan

Beautiful work Chris. I always read your card builds with interest but I really enjoyed the semi tutorial. The extra little insights gave me more appreciation of card building. Maybe one day …….. alan

As a result of vacillating between kits I seem to have started a number of different things simultaneously. And so the next temptation, a white metal miniature by Art Girona Judging by the size this is a drummer boy. The sculpt is nicely done and this should be a pleasant little project. I’ve assembled the major elements and given them a coat of black primer and the white directional spray After looking at the box art I was surprised to find that a dog is included. That will be a new challenge but he looks well sculpted. I’m keeping the drum separate until the end of the painting. Thanks for looking in. alan

I assembled the running gear today. No issues, everything fits nicely. Then onto the tracks. The tracks are link and length again but the individual links have more positive locating features so I’m hopeful that this will be an easier build. The instructions call for 7 links at each end of the track pieces and there are exactly 28 links in the kit. No pressure. ive fitted the lower sections so far and then got brave and added the first link. It fits to the adjacent track section nicely so I’m hopeful. Thanks for looking in, the likes and the excellent input to help me out. alan

Thank you so much EG. That is a lot of information that you pulled together and it’s very much appreciated. The Comets had a pretty short war so I’m planning on a nearly new condition. Some wear on the cleats and some dust on the lower hull. Patrick’s photo also shows that using the resin mantlet was a good choice. It matches the real thing a lot better. Thanks again. alan

Thank you again Patrick, very useful. Looks like a terrific museum too Alan

I don’t understand why they eat weird things around the house. My girlfriend’s cats eat the plastic plants and then puke the debris. It can’t taste good. How do they survive in the wild I wonder.
