The digital camo work on the Challenger is First Cabin all the way Marklo. Well Done! I don't know if I'd have the patience to to mask off everything to that degree.

Back into the teens. The F100 and the Canadian builds are probably next priority, but I should really make a drive to finish off the easy stuff, the Swalllow, Olympic, the Taube and the Brisfit. All four of them probably only need an hour or two of benchtime.

Crikey Nark, you're a busy  boy.  Great worm on those.   

Thanks Chris. I’m assuming that either autocorrect is on steroids or you’re nicely drunk given that it’s reasonably late on a Friday afternoon :)

Bloomin auto correct, edited  now  I wish I had been drinking, but have not touched a drop tonight.   Also fat fingers don't help especially  on a phone keyboard,  sorry fella, hope I did not cause any offence .

Can I ask what display cabinet you have? I have a couple of theirs but they say one of them doesnt have the option of additional shelves, just curious.😉

No I thought it was funny. Trust me I’m difficult to offend.

I have a Billy bookcase with glass doors; plenty of space for extra shelves.

I see, mine is a white framed glass cabinet, with only 3 shelves, but I’m managing it with Perspex risers and bridges, does fine.🙂

Blimey, you have got a lot on Mark, great work.

Yeah, probably far too much. I am aiming to get my wip into single digits but tbh I love starting new projects, that said I do finish quite a few too.

The Brisfit is finally finished. I really thought that’d be in the next KUTA :)
