    Looks great Richie!

     

    As for the engine covers .....I make mine out of annealed Coca Cola cans . ,,,,,once the aluminium is annealed then its quite easy to cut and shape them!....you could give it a go unless you have come up with a brain wave!....if you do ,let me know!🙂

    Hi Fozzy , I'm a regular  user of what I call "beer can skin"cut right from the can, what do you mean by "annealed"?

    Thank you so much for your kind comments. I'll do my best to produce something worth following. I am a very slow worker but it's great to have your interest.

    What are you working on at the moment? 

     

    Richie

    Well Richie, for me ,it's a work on a WHIRLWIND Mk I in 32 with flaps down and nose cone removed to show in scratch the guns installation - with  problems with guns barrels and ammo drums .......amongst some other "minor" things most of which depends on the good will of the post office..

    I've taking a few deep breaths, enjoyed a walk in the sunshine and it's nearly rum O'clock. I could get to enjoy this! 😁

     

    Richie

    - I'm O.K for the rum time-  half a rum glass with some candy sugar in the bottom, a lemon slice; an ice cube (not more to avoid killing the rum)...... or not,.... stirr well until de sugar melt, unless the sugar is liqid  - even better with Antillean blood saussage......... Enjoy your break

    - Often good things emerge from  bad ones.......It has been the signal that it's time to take a break; the damages are serious but not that difficult to cure for a modeller in your class, "keep calm and drink cool" as we use to say here, in a week or two the time will come to take the road again; See you later my friend..

    Thanks, it's been an eye straining couple of days but I'm pleased with my efforts! Do you have a new project lined up? I really enjoyed your Gauntlet conversion.

     

    Richie

    -Thank you Richie, the Gauntlet had been a damm good experience I won't  had brought to fruitition without the support you brought me together with Galgos which seem to have vanished under the radar screens. I'm working now on a Whirlwind Mk I, 32 from I.C.M, the objectiv being to show the very particular flap assembly down and the attractiv 4 H.S guns compartment open scratch built. Finger crossed.....!

    Salut! Et merci beaucoup Jean-Michel!

    Desolé.... I am hiding away in group builds... chasing deadlines exessively, hoping for extensions, etc! :D

    all caused by  my own optimism and the not to be missed GB topics and spirit over there :)

     

    - Hi Werner,

    The only forum where I appear is Britmodeller, they are not head breaking - and no group builds for me...
