    Steady Mr.R..... You`ll make me blush!!:tears-of-joy:,(But,Thank you!!),
    As for the Award...... I can only dream of attaining the standard that is required to receive,what is,let`s face it....... the Nobel prize of modelling!

            Andy In the first photo of the scatter I thought you had taken to breeding ants, was expecting this was in the wrong section !
            When delving further down the page I find the base, wow looking good, nice placement of the road/ track .Certainly like the vegetation, Id say spot on. :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:
            Carry on please.

              Hey Pete.......
              George is a name that seems to be synonymous with out dated clothing and Sad individuals who cling to an ancient past!!:dizzy:

                        Andy,
                        Sorry mate very late to this. The tank and figures look top notch and the ground work looks good. I will just nip over to the completed section and have a look. Nicely done.

                          Cracking figures, work really well. The tank is superb. I'll enjoy the completed dio photos.
