Bluddy 'ell!

We got bored with Silurian although there was a few wanted to go back to Ordovician (some of these can still be encountered on any given day in Moggins, Plymstock branch; myself not included).

Ordered a new mug online (1/1 scale and comes in a lid opening box before anyone asks). It has the Devon flag on it with the words 'Cream on First' emblazoned across it. To be used in my workplace in Cornwall-land. I'm not going to open that can of worms again but my work colleagues from the 'rogue nation' will see the funny side to it.

That scrubbed up well. Some of the tolerances in the cockpit can be a bit snug but not insurmountable. BZ on the canopy painting. The canopy is a good one to mask with prominent framing although may seem daunting at first and it fits perfectly.

Try living in Devon and having to work in Cornwall-land.

What are the odds nine of them will end up being painted red?

I haven't known anybody else use that word in years. I have to explain what it means to people down in the SW.

No.

Just listened to 'Whitesnake; Live in the Heart of the City' whilst driving back down to Cornwall-land. Proper classic 'Snake.

I live on the eastern outskirts and you can smell them before you see them when the wind is in the right direction. There's genuinely a fishy smell with a W'ly wind and with a N'ly; well, the sewage farm at Marsh Mills makes it's presence known

There's plenty of those in Plymouth

Outstanding; yet again. That burn looks nice and 'trouty.

What scale is it?

Nice job. The only thing I would have done is toned down the bright green on the uniforms and tin hat. Which green did you use for that? Matey boy sat on the starboard sponson is closer to the colour I would have used.

That yellow nearly seared my retinas. Nice build indeed. Metal finish rather well done.
