I know it is way more difficult to restore a model rather than building a new one from scratch. Thanks mate,.... I have to admit that it almost made a final flight into the wall! Glad I persevered. 16 hours ago, kapam said: Wow! An excellent restoration - showing no signs of being submerged in water! Very well done and nice subject matter too! 👍👍 Thanks very much,.... oh you should have seen the state of it when I recovered it,...... had to stand it on some kitchen roll for a week to let it dry out after I had given it a wash,..... the flood water had got under the paintwork and it bubbled everywhere,..... it left the model very brittle too and the joints had to be re glued. 10 hours ago, Wulfman said: Redemption !

stevehnz Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 That came up a treat Tony. Sorry it's taken me a week to see it, probably thought it was the WiP still. I know, read the labels. Yeah right. You'd never know it was a rehash, you've done good with it. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
