Hiya Folks,......been a bit quiet with these so far but they have been ticking along,.......here they are almost finished along with an AZ Model Spitfire Mk.VIII in RAAF markings which I`ve been building alongside them as it wears the same desert scheme;

A bit of tidying up, addition of the smaller parts etc and these should be done soon,

Hiya Folks,

                   I was rushed into hospital earlier this week and after an MR Scan showed that yet another disc had become displaced and was pressing into my spinal cord I was tranx to the Acute Spinal Centre at Salford Royal. It has been a very painful time with some partial (hopefully temporary) paralysis below the waist and an operation at this stage is too dangerous, so I have had a small op to try and reduce the size of the disc and hopefully prevent a much larger and more dangerous procedure.

They have let me out for Christmas.and to attend my Mum`s funeral (she ded on 16th December) and I report back in January,......so it has been a bit of a shitty week or so and although I have a number of almost  finished models in this GB, I doubt that I`ll be finishing them in time!

 

Merry Christmas to you all and a happy 2017,

Cheers
