Unfortunately it was on TOS and not here, so its devolved into an argument over the proper color of the crimson for the heart muscle.... LMAO ... Now that IS hilarious I think the shape of the lower left ventricle is off ... and the diameter on the Aorta looks a bit big to my eye ... Surface detail is a bit overdone ...

Bomber_County Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Or as this little snippet from TOS talking in depth how wrong a manufacturer has it wrong, so you’re right Rog..............the subject under discussion was a new 1/48 kit......I’ll say no more........ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted November 2, 2019 Administrators Share Posted November 2, 2019 It’s funny how trivial kits actually become when we’re face with the our own mortality.

Wish me luck. Carl It would be really ironic and bad luck to survive a heart attack (even if « mild ») to get caught in a road accident on the way back from hospital . Fingers crossed for you Carl 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Get well soon, do as they say, and keep taking the pills. I was very lucky one heart attack, one stent and kicked out to go home. While I was rolling on the floor having said heart attack my wife shouted through to ask if I wanted a cup of tea, I said yes and managed to drink it, now we know the restorative power of tea. But it was really the nice people at the cardiac rehab unit that really got me back to full fitness. Take it easy Dennis 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted November 3, 2019 Author Share Posted November 3, 2019 Made it home safe a few hours ago. The boys were with my sister so I didn't see them until after dinner. They were happy to see me and then claim dibs on my side of the bed. I'm in the den as it's closest to the bathroom. Honestly, it was just great to get home. One thing I hadn't realized was that it was my mom's 72nd birthday too. It got a bit lost in the chaos of my predicament. Thankfully they did something simple to celebrate it at my sister's place. Guys, thanks for your company through this along with the advice and laughs (thankfully no popped stitches. Yet). It was worth it being able to check in and read the new posts. I still haven't seen the bench yet. Maybe in the coming week. We're still figuring out what to make foodwise and coordinating getting the boys to school and home. Hopefully it won't be long until a sense of normalcy (ie chaos) returns here. Thanks again, Carl 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(No Brisket) S Sue and think we'll have a BBQ (probably in the spring) to thank everyone that helped us out and get through this. So maybe a little brisket then, something to look forward to sharing and show our appreciation to our neighbours and colleagues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
