      Hope you made the trip worth your while. Any swag from the local model shops?

      Never got the chance Col. But had more than my fair share of the bar tab!

      lol! I used to live on a narrowboat. I'd get "Land sick" not sea sick after a few weeks!

      I generally don't get seasick but after 27 years I'm sick of the sea!

      I too am so over this working thing. If only I were not so fixated on food and shelter.

      Another model getting finished! What's happened to you!?!

      I'm like a man possessed! Well actually like a man redundant with lots of time on his hands. I was hoping to get those Phantoms finished before the end of March but the enamels took weeks to dry so I started on this Dora to pass the time.

  8. Been awake half the night thinking through the rest of my Lightning build. I hope the Elves have been in and finished it for me?

      No Elves so just had to do it myself!

      Well obviously the ambulance sheds were white. You do know that there never were sheds in Braun/Violet?

    3. Duncan B

      Duncan B

      Ridiculous! Everyone knows that the sheds in the Med were a blue colour with a squiggle of tartan.

      look at it this way - now you've done the shed you CAN do some modelling

  10. Bit of a disaster with my gloss coat. It's gone very grainy at the wing roots.

      That happened to me a few times. Caused by the paint spray having further to go to reach the "corners" and drying before it hits the surface.

    3. Brad

      Just keep the airbrush closer to the model and don't spray the gloss at an angle across the wing from the wingtip or the walkway/side of the fuselage picks up the overspray that's already dry before it hits the surface.

    4. Duncan B

      Duncan B

      I guessed it was the gloss coat drying mid air or bouncing back off the surface and hitting the fuselage dry. I'll have to try and polish it back.
