Yo Mucker!

Glad you like me 'airyplain'.
Smooth? It should be after all me faffin' abaht trying to get summat like the right colour for the Beige/ Lt. Brown. Including the Dk. Brown, I reckon about 6 coats in total!

Next? No weathering is a good clue....

Thanks again.

Very, very nice Ron, definitely Aston Martin (the dog's bollocks) rather than Austin Allegro (total bollocks).

He'll either wreck it, drown it or enlist the help of a certain person and set fire to it. Whatever methinks it will be good :smiling:

With no weathering, I reckon he's gonna put it in that museum he built on Anglesey!

Ron. Just beautiful and as always your pics are great

[spanner570]

Thanks Lee.
It's just a bit of cheeky fun brought on by Dave's post.

If anyone visits N .Wales and wants to see Telford's Menai Bridge from this view, which I painted a while back and is slotted behind the Spitfire, go over the Britannia Bridge on the A55 on to Anglesey. Take the !st left, go down to the bottom, turn right. You come across a large lay-by on the right. park up and there is the bridge.

Thanks for the indulgence peeps!
