        The eyes are from a taxidermist web site, they are Bobcats eyes. The eye laches are real I bought them on our local drug store. You ought to see how the women around looked at me, because I was choosing to see what it would look on my mosquito. :smiling3:

          I like your nickname.
          I guess you know a thing or two about R/C boats.

                          so still just a few things to do then it will be her launch day but when that will be i dont know as it depens on several factors the main one bein on our crazy wheather system as if its raining then no go an it does that a lot of the days out of the yr in blighty here ps i love your models eps the gatlin gun an your bug
                          ATB TO YOU SIR

                              Yes please, I love tugs and have 6 seating on its boxes waiting to be build.
                              My first priority will be the huge Caldercraft Imara.
                              For the radio I need something that could operate two motors, smoke maker, lights, speed, rudder, and sound module.
                              It will be inspirational to see your tug and if you could, show me the inside set up.

                                This is a project that I would like to build.
                                It’s funny and everything on it looks fun to build and it would be outstanding when finished.
                                To me, this model says a lot about the person who will build it.
                                It says: “I love model ships but I’m a bit crazy “.
