Andy's 1/48 Blenheim

[Tim Marlow]

I STILL do Tim..
... after 40 odd years it probably explains a few things!!

Haven’t seen it for sale for many years. Probably just renamed it craft cider round here……

You can get it in plastic "kegs" in some stores ....
.... but the"Good stuff" is purloined from some of the Pubs on the Moors, usually decanted from their own demi -johns and sold in half pints,some of them you can actually see through... if you take out the bits of bark first of course!!

Not much chat about the build, but of course it's young Mr Smith and Cohan.
I shall follow what ever your building ! .

I was just about to say, 'get yourself a mask set for this build' but I see you already have. Sound move.

Bit of heresy for you all….some of the best cider I’ve had comes from Normandy in France! Mind you, Lilley’s, a couple of miles from me as the crow flies, is no slouch either….

That's what you get for going into French France.. can't trust them buggers.... They're almost as bad as those Cornish gits !!

[The Smythe Meister]

Anyway,(and this should keep comrade Race happy!), some progress at last :smiling3:


.. Yep, that's the first FOURTEEN stages completed :smiling3: ...
Next the Aircrew,I jumped ahead a bit here,(They can take a bit of time!!), he's quite nicely done.. problem is,these planes had a crew of THREE, so why do you only get one??

All good nonetheless
A nice build so far

Cheers Tim..
... yes, it's very well done.. but where are the other crew figures?!!

Console yourself with the thought that if they did give you three, they'd be identical triplets.

Looking good so far Andy.

Thanks for that Pete.
... and yes, it's certainly better to not have three the same!! ... Luckily I do have a supply of 3d printed aircrew who will be fine .... like the two I used in my Defiant.
