This looks marvellous Martian, Bill needs to get into 'washing'

 

How're you doing now then?

 

(Plasterer reported for duty yet?)

Thanks Bill, I just used some Tamiya Panel Line wash applied with a very fine brush.

 

The plasterer came yesterday to assess the damage which will cost £100 to fix which was a lot less than I thought it would be.

Still pretty sore though, I expect I will be for a bit. :(

We could do with double likey's on here, a smiley one for a not too expensive repair & a sad one for the soreness! Hope it's not too long a bit that it lasts M...

I get confused enough with this new like system as it is. Any more complicated and I think I would go into a Martian meltdown!

Hi Martian 

Sorry to hear about your loft escapade. I hope you recover soon. 

The work you have done looks fantastic fella.   

BTW I was goingthrough some old SAMI mags the other day and saw a lovely model of a 1/32 Miles Monitor With a credit with your name of the Poole Vikings.   Was that yours. It looks very  nice . Do you have any photos of the model still.   Don't go up to the loft to get it to photograph as I don't want to hear you have done it again !!!  Only if they are to hand.

 

Take it easy

Hello Dear tentacled one,

Glad to ear that the ceiling repair is not too expensive... So only 15 days of modelling furnitures ??:idea:

Hope that you will recover soon, you will need all of your appendices to restart the Roc

Nice work on your piloted missile, I really enjoy !

Congrats !

Sincerely.

Thanks Chris. I still have the model, it s 1/48 rather than 1/32. I will ask Mrs Martian if she can get it for me and bung a few pictures up.

Thanks Alain. The Roc will get re-started in due course. Once the interior is panted up, there will not be a huge amount to do to get it to the painting stage.

One has not been an idle alien over the past few days,  have been mostly plodding away painting and adding lots of etched parts to the two cockpits and the ejection seats. Things were going a bit slowly until the early hours of this morning when a sudden surge of inspiration caused me get out of bed and launch into one of my famous modelling sessions "au naturelle".

 

There is a way to go to finish the cockpit but here are the pictures of where we are at thus far. In consideration for those members of a more fragile disposition, I have omitted pictures of the Alien during the above session. Aren't I good to you Earthlings!

 

Thanks for looking

Hmm

 

Enquiring minds might but......

 

Nocturnal nudity aside                                                                        (waaaaay aside, far away over th e r e ...)

 

The cockpit looks, I was, mistakenly going  to put real but of course real it is, realistic is what it is

 

It is good that the Martian has found his "gottabuilditis"

 

We have missed these sessions Martian

Cockpits looking superb ....

How you came about  them :sick: this site should carry a public health warning.

 

As for you

don't expect any sympathy if you have an accident with a scalpel, super glue  etc, etc 

Perhaps a box would offer some protection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm thinking for us after we put you in it  :whistle:

Thanks Bill, hopefully there are more on the way but I am still taking it a step at a time at the moment.

Thanks Kev. I have plenty of boxes in the Martian Cave but I am not sure how they will help?
