  1. Super fine work going on here could do with a new smiley saying "super fine detail going on here" :) OC.
  2. Greg im loving the detail of the plates along the hull bottom, they are consistant with what I would have thought would have been on her, from battleship plans I have seen most have this routine patern of interlocking plates - similar to what I did on my Warspite lower hull. OC.
  3. I have been following some build tips for this section - some suggest attaching the frame to the roof first followed by the floor, and others its the reverse, will have to see what works best - need to buy somemore ca glue first though before I do anything. OC/
  4. Nimble fingers I dont think I have - gone from one extreme to the other - working with parts so tiny many would fit on one finger, to doing finger streaching exercises for my keyboard work (music type not laptop). OC.
  5. Right folks - I thought I would show the project and area I will be working on next with my build, the picture shows the Pontos parts for the rear gallery(walk way) that was fitted at the back of Warspite and her sisters. Its 75% pontos brass bits but with the kit platic roof and will be a nice little project in its own right. OC.
  6. Loving the detail on that hull so mutch scribed armour plate detail, wish my Warspite was as accurate and detailed. OC.
  7. Hi folks - remember me? I just want to squash any rumours that I have been eaten alive by my keyboard or become too famous from producing music, to carry on building my Warspite, nope Im still about just waiting for my mojo to come back from its holiday and inspire me to carry on with the ole lady. OC.
  8. Im getting old - cant remember where I left my muscles OC.
  9. Sounds like a plan greg - one day I mite get an airbrush type thingy, till then I am resigned to using a hairy stick with a bit of watered down paint and blowing on it, guess that is my airbrush OC.
  10. Wonder if this painting by turner might help in relation to her Trafalger condition. OC.
  11. I will be doing more work soon folks (promis) its just that I have had a few distractions from my joke and gag writting, getting a new camera set up and needing to test it out, then later getting an asignment to do some keyboard recording for a record to be produced later this year. Its like having so many irons in one fire - enjoyable but busy. OC.
  12. So much detail at 200 scale I was so thinking of getting Hood in that scale for my 100th - when I finish my ole lady :D OC.
  13. "Its looking realy good exciting like a book - amazing what all that work took" there you go I sang it while playing along on my keyboard OC.
  14. What i intend to do is - make my ole girl with one hand while taking pics outside with the other - while recording onto my tascam from my keyboard with the other two hands OC.
  15. Hi folks just saying hi Im still around just showing another reason for my distractions of late - I write music and here is another of my new toys to play with OC.
  16. Dont know about the Amazing work you have done - but I can read how old you are by your rings OC.
  17. Keep going you can do it - we will all join you for a slipway lauching party :) OC.
  18. Helps if the paint (acrylic) is watered down to thin milk consistancy I understand. OC.
  19. We have a nice little family building here, Im still here just been a bit disstracted by my little camera and intermitent spells of blue sky and aerolplanes flying over at 30.000 feet and setting the challenge to myself of catching a photo of the pilot waving at me OC.
  20. Seasons greetings greg have a peaceful healthy time and a great start to 2017. OC.
  21. Hello David sincere warm greetings to you hope you have a loverly christmas, Its all your fault - after seeing the Fabulous Warspite from up north, you got me hooked and obsessed with the ole girl All my inspiration is from that Amazing pice of artistry going on with her, just hope I can in any small way pay tribute to her Kind regards OC
