"Shhhhhhhhh" OC. -
Gonna see how my knee is tomorrow as I cant wait to try a new idea out with my paintwork - re paint the Blue areas with some paint mixed with more Matt Medium by putting a bit in a lid and mixing more medium into it, upto now I have beed adding a few drops of the mudium to a whole jar of paint. OC.

I kid you not I swear blind I saw a Cuirassier charging at me - probably made me jump for the floor. OC.

Thank you Denis, I am bored and fed up sitting in my chair watching rubbish on tv with my leg up on my stool - thank goodness for our site and the internet. OC.
-
Wonder if the old tooth past on a cloth trick would do (Lou)? OC.
-
Now you got my inquisitive side going EG your plans sound exciting Bro. OC.
-
Very nice work - the detail in the Alum parts and the contrast with the painted details - first class work. OC.

Thanks Mark, Its bloody annoying - I only went out to a local shop (first time in Two weeks) walking off a path somehow was not concentrating stubbed my foot somehow on the road surface and before I knew were I was I could see the road coming up towards me as I fell on to my hands and knees - hands got gravel guts and my Knees (thankfully I had my trousers on and not my shorts) my hands were bleeding and my right leg felt like it was swelling up, I was able to walk ok without pain. As soon as I got in - trousers came off shorts back on kneess and hands were washed then some frozen things wrapped around my knee to bring the swelling down, I recognized the pain in the inside part of my knee as where I had torn my ligaments before. Just typical. OC.

I know mate - its an old injury from when I was ran into and knocked off my bike by a car - many years ago, it must have weakend my knee and falling on it yesterday just kicked it off again. OC.

No work at the table today - I just sat infront of the tv and finsished the night watching Expendables 3 feeling sorry for myself. OC.

Thank you Edward - Im currently sat in the chair frozen towel around my knee and blanket on me as I am cold (bit of shock I guess) I know what I have done as its an old injury torn my right knee ligament again - nothing to be done just rest and gentle exercise. OC.
-
Thanks bro. OC.

Just got back in after an adventurous stroll - I had a fall lost my footing and landed on my hands and knees in the road - picked myself up checked the damage - "can still move my legs/knees - check" - "hands bleeding a bit from the gravel" walked the remainder home got in admiral put a couple of plasters on - currently sitting with a freezer bag on my one knee as its a bit swollen and red. Typical first walk out in nearly two weeks and that happens.😒 OC.
-
Thank you kindly. OC.
-
But worry end result might equal - spilled paint over work surface, with my mains operated drill anyway. OC.
-
Yep - hence why I wont wear them - thank you so much for the nice words Denis. OC.

I have already got Five pairs of Knitted swimming trunks in the draw.😜 OC.
-
She is busy knitting me a pair of wellington boots for the winter.🤣 OC.
-
Yep, I read about that, any thoughts on mixing - as I have also been using an old brush and stiring the paint like crazy as well as shaking it - kind of spent more time shaking and stiring than actually painting. OC.
-
I think my back up plan is to - paint them/weather them then let them dry for a few days then look at my options - Tamiya Flat coat laquare is not really practical due to the smell, I think its a case of shaking and more shaking. OC.
-
Yep, my arm is now Eight foot long due to tha amount of shaking I have been doing, the funny thing is its flats down any odd bits on flat paint, its like there is something about Vallejo Blue and Flat Red. OC.
