The service I used to use is now no more and I could of. This one only allows a 30day maximum.
I thought about adding it to my signature, but in a more subdued format, but can't get the BB code to work.

I think BB code in signatures is very limited. I tried getting the link to my Flickr album collection to actually be active but couldn't work it out, so had to settle for making it a different colour to make it obvious..... Anyone who's interested then has to copy it into the browser for it to work.

I think I've a workaround, but it's a bit long winded and then what's basically an animated signature can be very distracting so probably best I don't.

NICE......

I'm sensing a certain theme/preference/obsession here Andy...... If I could just put my finger on it...... :tongue-out3:

Don’t think I’ve posted my victim yet….
Here it is……a very big box for a single engined 1/48 aircraft……

I left the chair in to give scale…..
I have some paint masks on order….don’t want to manually mask that glasshouse……
It’s been on the shelf for a good few years, so I was very pleased when I opened the box and found these…..

Can’t hurt can they…..it’s going to be the most complex aircraft I’ve built so far, wingfold and all……

Looks fun.......

Depends what they are for really….I have a comprehensive supply of strip and rod in my build stash, so they may get replaced. They may not get used at all, of course, depending on what they are for…..there’s more etch on the back mind…..two frets per bag….

Wings?

No..... Definitely get the sense it begins with a 't'......not tracks...... tangerines maybe.... :thinking:

[yak face]

Ok, I give in , I probably shouldnt as the three months time window is a bit tight for my current build rate but what the hell I’m in ! Luckily I picked up a nice subject at the Hinckley show a few weeks back , so two weeks to go then - BANZAI !!!

Ignition wires for the rockets......just had a look over the instructions, as I've already stated, "Looks fun."

I like that Box Art and look at those goodies nice.

[Lee Drennen]

Not long now, time to check your paints and any AM bling you need.

Great idea I like it.

[Lee Drennen]

Don't doubt you Lee.

Might not go with the rocket load out then …….not sure it would be appropriate with folded wings (well probably one folded) anyway……got a book on them somewhere so I’ll look through it to see what’s what…

Gentle folk I shall sit and watch with interest.
As long as I don't have to get wet !
