  1. Phil No question - you made the right choice - it's hard to stay home but protecting your wife, the family and yourself is the most important. Keep 'em comin Peter
  2. Rob Thank goodness for credit cards and some awesome buys for sure. Keep 'em comin Peter
  3. Holy Smokes ... just love the masking and of course, the countless hours masking devours before the actual paint. Gus .. some mighty nice rusty old weathering for sure. Keep 'em comin Peter
  4. Gaz Yikes, that sure is a lot of shades of color but it worked very well. On the images I can also see the dot filters, which work so very well. Keep 'em comin Peter
  5. Gaz Thank you for the close ups on painting the faces ... absolutely your gentle touch worked very well. The light weathering on the Marder looks very effective and when I look closely, I can see the dot filters. My kind of weathering for sure. Keep 'em comin Peter
  6. Mark Right with Rob and looking so good. Keep 'em comin Peter
  7. Rob Now that's a plan and I'm already front and center in the first row Keep 'em comin Peter
  8. Every Friday Sprue Brothers has their Weekend Specials and if you are not on their mailing list, the weekend special is on their website page. I also enjoy working in other scales and try to take advantage of their sales. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  9. Rob Awesome looking front office ... some mighty nice, precision work. Keep 'em comin Peter
  10. Harv Nice work on getting the resin to mate up to the plastic. Agree with martin on checking the overall fit as I've been there and had all sorts of issues down the road. Keep 'em comin Peter
  11. Kev Nice ,progress. The added details and the turret interior look spot on and lots of fine work. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  12. Harv It’s a fight for sure but take your time, go slow and no question, you will work your way though the kit and wind up with a gem. Keep ‘em colmin Peter
  13. Carl Hope you back pains ease up allowing to to be able to walk and sit without pain. Been there many times in the past (thank g,oodness) and it’s no fun for sure. Rest and stay off, your feet - plenty of time for being at the bench when you feel much better. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  14. Rob Brilliant detail work on the front office. Details are crisp and clear and oh, those seat belts 👍 Keep 'em comin Peter
  15. Mark brilliant progress on the Ferrari - engine details look mighty impressive. Keep 'em comin Peter
  16. Phil Glad we're on the same wave length and "Young Man" ... thanks so much, as I'll be 74 in ten days. Keep 'em comin Peter
  17. Mark Cammo work is looking mighty sweet Keep 'em comin Peter
  18. Jetmad ... sure is looking mighty good is new releases. Can't wait for my Viggen to arrive next year and I'll also be looking on ordering the Phantom Keep 'em comin Peter
  19. Rob Thanks for the test on the blades - now all I have to do is buy the sharpening stones. Nice stash for sure and I also have the ZM He 219 but half way though the engines , my hands were still way too shaky and unsteady as a side effect from the chemo. I'm starting to think of picking it up again but doing it with the engines all buttoned up, as I think I would like the look a lot better. I built my tamiya Mossie with the Merlin's completely hanging in the wind as well as one of my Tamiya Mustangs and Spits, so ex[posed engines have kind of run their course for me for at least a while. You 190 projects sound very intriguing, as I've seen the kit built up with a lot of AM and it does look mighty good. Keep 'em comin Peter
  20. Rob Never thought of resharpening my cutting blades either - we're on the same boat. My feelings exactly on the ZM Mustang and why I haven't bought the kit. I just never seem to have much luck with all the outer panels enclosing the interior assemblies. even including pistons for the engines just seems such a waste of time and money. I am looking forward to their FW190 and if need be, will have to bite the bullet on all the hidden internal assemblies, as I've heard that there will not be a basic kit, just the standard SMS style kit. Keep 'em comin Peter
  21. I've just been reading that there might be some form of legal action and that the Lanc might be on hold. Not sure of what all this actually means - anyone have any further information? Keep ‘em comin Peter
  22. Rob Hoping that maybe is closer to now then later😉 Keep ‘em comin Peter
  23. Terrific progress, especially on the scribing and rivets. We’e been discussing on some of the other builds re- scribing panel lines and the tools used and you easily have that skill under control. No discussion yet on riveting, as again, your skills are shinning through. When riveting, my weapons of choice are a nice set of Rosie The Riveter. I do find riveting much easier then scribing but in either case a steady hand and prep work is required. KeeP ‘em comin Peter
  24. Gaz Nice start on the figures and greatly appreciate your comments and how to do’s. Please keep going slow with tiny steps as there is so much learn! Keep ‘em comin Peter
  25. Rob Stunning work - looking so good. Keep ‘em comin Peter
