Indeed. I have broken cover in the Bristol GB, and I expect I'll start a thread over the weekend. You are correct that time away from the vehicles will be a healer. Having got so far with both of them, well, the refuelled at least, it would seem silly not to complete them eventually. That said, I have any number of part-finished vehicles littering various storage boxes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather Kay Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Well, sorry folks. I’ve decided these models are not destined to be completed in this GB. I’ve packed them away carefully, and will revisit them when I feel I can properly give them my time and energy. So, my first GB DNF. A bit of a turn up for the books. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry1954 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 A great shame Heather but we've all been there. On a positive note, your work on the refueler got me very inspired about such things (including other airfield vehicles), and quite fired up to get one. I found this mob quite interesting (I saw them at Telford also): https://www.scalemates.com/brands/mil-mod--7207 Very pricy though! Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather Kay Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Ooh, interesting. I’ve been seeking suitable vehicles for my 1940 France stuff. I’ll keep an eye on that range. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always another GB...have you seen this proposal? It would clearly appreciate the support, and obscure airfield vehicles😍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to add my name - though my stock of 25% or less vehicle kits is much diminished at present! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenSharp Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Heather that means since all your stuff is either built and out of the way or stuff partially built and out of the way , you have room for more stuff. Sounds like a shopping excursion would be in order. So you need more stuff 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried a mix of black, silver and clear blue but it does not look quite right. I like the sunken/wrecked boats! Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
