    Thanks boys.... :thumb2:

    Paul- Now that is one big coincidence.... Wink, wink!

    Alistair - I found the hardest part of the process was the initial preparation for the camo. Once this was done, the brush painting was fairly straight forward, if very long winded!

    Another aspect of the build I found most useful, was writing a complete and utter load of bo****ks for the thread leader.....S.N.O.R. = RONS for instance. This approach confuses the nit pickers and fault finders and keeps them at a distance - And was fun to do too!

    Thanks for your input too, Jason.

    Cheers.
    Ron

      Morn Ron,

      That is what makes your work so enjoyable and fun. With some of your stories, it's hard not to put my boots on as they get deep, but always entertaining. Your photography skills are 1st Class too!!!

      Prost

        Hi Ron
        There was a programme on TV where contestants had to decide which members of the panel were telling the truth and who were the fibbers. You would have made a convincing panel member 'cause you're a master of 'the tall tale'.
        Oh and you're also a great modeller who takes great photos.
        Jim

          Thanks Allen. Glad you like the occasional Bull ****!

          Nice one Jim, thank you.

          That'll be 'Call My Bluff', me thinks.
          Great programme. I did a couple of months of script writing for it. There I go again talking tosh.......perhaps.

            Great build Ron and love the front story, made me chuckle a couple of times.
            Good job on the camo, reminded me of your other one, was it a BMP..... What ever.

              There's a program on Radio 4 called "The Unbelievable Truth", where contestants take turns to talk a load of boll nonsense, but earn point for sneaking in some true facts. You'd be a winner at it I'm sure Ron.

                Thanks Ian and Pete.
                I thought my model had sunk to the bottom of the river, never to be seen again!

                  Isn't that the whole point of camouflage? :smiling:
