For once, I did'nt cook for my family...

I forced myself to not going in the kitchen while my Good lady was cooking the meal....

I felt a bit lost...

But she treated us with her delicious Gulash !!

She planned it for 2 days....

But it was so tasty...

slow cooker is almost empty !!

 

Tail unit of the RNDFF is almost complete !!

Well, More to come soon !!

Take care Gents, and enjoy modelling !!

Sincerely.

Hello Dears !

Yesterday, after 8 hours on the roadside, soaked by cold rain, I was'nt in the mood to cook a sophisticated meal....

So it was U.S Army Viet Nam meal nicknamed Beans & dick...

IMG_20210118_184929

Then dishwashing and at least, a bit of modelling...

I worked on the Shar and on the Hurries...

IMG_20210118_223726

Another bit of an idea... I saw the horn on the rudder, why not add the actuator ??

Look good to me !!

Then the lenses for the cameras !!

One is done, next one tonight !!

Hey Gents !!

Did'nt even get in the attic for "looking at this kit...."

Okaaay !! let's finish some instead !!

Sincerely.

Always thought it would be a nice touch to mount a tiny camera in one of these models CC. Admittedly it would look a bit odd waving a Hurricane at the happy couple when taking wedding photos....

 

Lovely catching up with your work as always ami. :thumbsup:

Hello Dears !!

Well Mr G, here we are !!

IMG_20210203_210410

X tracrylic azure blue over some tamiya panel accent...

Variations are subtle but still visible

As Mid stone is coming soon, Hurri #2 is readied too...

IMG_20210203_232157

At least, one Hurricane finished in february is feasble...

Markings will be fun for these two...

More to come soon...

So sorry Gents but there has been a very bad change in my job...

Now, the dispatching is assured by a computer and things turn awfull...

No respite at all, no more time to have a look at BM while I'm in my service car...

Add to this 3 weeks of rain or snow... And I'm really exhausted...

20 days on the road planned for a 28 days month, ...

I'm wondering ?? Did they want to burn all the old rats like me out ??? :rofl2::rofl2:

Stay safe Pals !!

And have a great modelling time !!

Sincerely.

CC

We are going to learn how to turn this device crazy...:evil_laugh:

Electromic counter measures or a sort of !!:rofl2:

Not a great deal done today...

A friend of mine give me a commission....:rage:

Turning this 1/43 Dacia 1300 into the Renault 12 on the pic....

IMG_20210205_205750

Funny side project...

Mid stone is now done...

IMG_20210205_223144

Stay safe Gents 

Sincerely.

Sorry about the job CC, hang tough I’m sure it will be sorted soon.

 

Love the Hurri, it’s coming on really well, not so far to go now..  When I did mine I don’t think I matted it down enough for a desert aircraft.

 

Mrs GB’s father took part in the Monte Carlo rally in a Mini Cooper and I have part built the Tamiya model.  Somewhere in the family someone has the race plate and number.  Do you think anyone can find it?  So good luck with your conversion, at least you have a picture..
