Lovely modelling for such a small scale.

Stunning modelling all round.

Thanks Mike.

Thanks for the kind words David. I wish I could scratch build,ahh well plenty of kits for me to do otherwise.

Very true words dove. I always try to keep busy with either modelling or solo board gaming.and my next goal is to always complete the next model no matter what. All the best . Ralph.

Cheers dov.

Hello my Friends. This is from last year Hasagawa,Lion Roar and Shipyard Models. This was a fantastic kit to build and was a joy from start to finish. Two days after I started this I was feeling quite unwell and to try and take my mind from it I tried to work on the kit.Well I could not grip anything and then suddenly I had to go to the toilet.In agony with diarrhoea, it was then I realised I was having an heart attack,the trouble was I could not physically stand up so I could not get to the phone.So there I am stuck on the bog trying not to pass out and trying to stand up,after about half an hour I managed to stand up and get to the phone,not thinking straight I rang my wife and told her to come home( she was only across the road at a friends),she then phoned for an ambulance and the rest is history. All the best to you all. Ralph.

Hello my Friends. My name is Ralph and I like to build almost anything,mainly ships and figures. Hoping to join in and maybe make a few friends. I suffer with serious mental health problems(Schizophrenia) and use modelling to occupy my mind,I model and paint most days. I support an awful team called Chester FC and love to go fishing. I have a lovely wife called Paula who colours wonderful pictures. A son called Chester who is a Chef and a daughter called Eskarina who is nearing the end of a Masters Degree. I also like to play solo board games and I am currently playing Core Space. All the best. Ralph.

Hello my Friends. This is a Games Workshop kit. Painted with oils. The metallics were painted with acrylic. All the best. Ralph.

Excellent build.
