rafine Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share #514 Posted April 8, 2016 Thanks so much to all for the generous comments and good wishes, as well as the"likes". While none of us build for the purpose of receiving praise, it is certainly gratifying to have highly skilled modelers appreciate what you do. Thank you again. Bob '.

I can't even begin to count the number of times I've referred to your log of the Cheerful and the Essex to work out some detail or other. I'm off now to track down your Granado build. See you there!
