  1. You are so talented with your scratchbuilding, so intricate and amazing tiny pieces of art in thier own right. OC.
  2. Looking very tidy love the work with balsa fill ins certainly helps the planking, will you have to cut out the bearding and rabbat llines.? OC.
  3. Great start bob, just the order with the bracing pieces I do the same thing certainly helps. OC.
  4. Looking more and more real with each step, cant wait for you to launch her go catch us some fish mate. OC.
  5. I used to love the Red Arrows Gnat it was the first dispaly aircraft I ever saw when I was 8 years old. OC.
  6. Hi pat, Thank you for looking through my build, im sorry to hear about your wifes hand condition, mine comes and goes but I was suffering holding the small parts, but I will try to carry on with the build. OC.
  7. Did you give them a good soaking first before applying heat? that might help. OC.
  8. What a great looking ship and so realistic looking compared to the real ship in London. OC.
  9. Thats a great start bob, and as you say - its the stage we all go through, but crutial and so important to get it all strong and lined up equal to each other, I love the closeness of the bulkheads, that should help no end - wish more kits did that. OC.
  10. Hello everyone, I had a look at the the ole girl yesterday and thought I really should summon up the courage to have another go on her, my hands are no worse so perhaps I will be ok, need to get some more supplies though first as I have no super glue but might be tempted to get gorila glue if I can get it from ebay, and my Revell poly cement (the bottles with the fine needle) well the needles have jammed up in both of them and I do not have a fine enough wire etc to clean through the needles. I will try to get some thing sorted though. OC.
  11. Really nice work you are doing, is that snow you show in some of your photos? OC.
  12. I used hairspray/straiteners and a hair dryer and got funny looks of the admiral - I am bald. OC.
