An Aussie Shagbat too - even better Alain! I am, however, concerned about sharkmouth business. It is April and we still have no Airacobras!

 

Cheers,

 

Roger

Don't you worry Roger...

I'm swallowing the broken wing, pondering the best way to fix it...

Alas, the monogram will be the sharkmouthed one ...:hmmm:

Do you know how to turn a seemingly quiet saturday into a back breaking work day ???

Lady CC was going to her friend's house and she noticed something big on the roadside...

 

Sooo butcher CC has worked hard and the Doggos are more than happy...

I don't dare to eat it but Sirius, Nokya and Angel will...

Hello Dear ETI,

Well, to say the truth, I won't dare to eat this one...

I made my meal of some strange or weird things in Africa...

But, I don't know when it has been killed, then all the abdomen was explosed.

I just finish the 1/48 Walrus.  Lovely kit, really enjoyed building mine..

 

 

Oooh Yes Sir, the kit is a treat, I really enjoy it.

The only glitch was my fault, I've been a bit over enthusiastic when I heated the tailplane....

I'll start the second one soon....

I'm helpless... 

Ordering the PE asap.... And on we go !!

 

Thank you for your support !!

Sincerely.

No he definitely is Crazy Roger😉

I say that in an affectionate way for our dear CC

 

Glad the Shagbat is getting attention with another one to keep it company too CC.

Oooooo thanks for letting me know re the PE set for the windscreen frames previously.  I managed to track a set down so will be able to go to town hopefully. 

Great save on the struts to.
