BillF67 Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 Slowly getting there. I’m just pottering now, while I start building a Nissen Hut and a base and maybe a few other bits and bobs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillF67 Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 Next appearance should be on “grass” with at least one a/c and a few more figures. Might even have the hut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bar side Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 The interior detail is great - love it! I finally got around to putting handrails around my 1/48 tower and steps up the sides. The handrails are massively over scale but should survive for a while. Mine has a Cold War tower top, but it’s removable so I could do a greenhouse for that WW2 look. Couple of leds to bring it alive 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillF67 Posted December 22, 2023 Author Share Posted December 22, 2023 Okies, you’ve shamed me on my own thread😞 I’ve actually done a bit more to mine, and will be able to post after Christmas. I could trot out a load of excuses but actually, I lost my enthusiasm for building anything. I did a “short term” 1/144 display and wanted a Mosquito to go on it (no reason - I just like Mossies) so I obtained one and started building. I should have searched on BM before I started. What a dog of a kit. I am a relative beginner (even though I’m over 70) and I had nowhere near enough skill to make that little beggar. It now languishes, badly made and incomplete, on my work bench, a sad reminder of my lack of experience and ability. it put me right off, I can tell you. On the one hand, I want to move on and finish stuff and/or start new things. On the other hand, it sits there, mocking me. What I should do is put it in the recycling bin and move on. I’m just about there. How can a little bit of plastic do this to me, a man who faced the Russian hordes on the North German moors with nary a thought of failure? Go figure. New Year, new beginning, starting with finishing the Control Tower dio. Merry Christmas, one and all and may 🎅 bring all that you want. Bill P.S. It was/is a Mark 1 1/144 scale Mosquito. I’m sure that in expert hands it will make a delightful little addition but they aren’t MY hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bar side Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I think it was your thread that got me to dig out my never completed hand rails! Anyway working on it was a distraction from my vacform build that has been going since July & seems to have no end in sight yet. Merry Christmas to you & yours too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
