That looks absolutely fantastic John, that roof work is something else. Are you covering the roof work or leaving as is?

[Mini Me]

Yup, red oxide. Perhaps a little rust at some of the joints? Might not be visible from the outside once the roof is on though.

Morning mate...... Thank you for kind comments. There will be a roof, corrugated and treated. Also a section on the right hand side with a tarp. Mainly so access can be made to see all the interior. I've sent an email to jsminiture lighting. Hope to have lights inside. !

Rick ...... Dead right, thought about a list of black to give the impression of exhaust, maybe will add some rust as well in the plated area. Nice idea, thanks.

Very kind of you Mick.Thanks.

As the lighting my take some time I'm going to concentrate on the corrugated. The formers have been made, numerous aluminium containers from good old Wilko have been cut and flattened. Will use some of the spare as the ridge capping and also for the side .
Thanks for looking in :smiling2:

Hi John,

I like both your 1:1 and 1/35 scale dios. Great work. :thumb2: Lots of additions and as Steve has said...everything but the kitchen sink....he's got to be carefull with his loose jaw. :smiling6:

P.S. Koi's love anything deeper than 3ft. Thrive better that way and can grow to gigantic sizes.

Cheers,
Richard

Not much at the moment John

I did post a Gunpla build here couple of weeks ago called Tallgeese. I decalled the Mobile Suit and will need to give it a clearcoat. But since I spray in the basement and it's a bit of dusty room I've ordered a spray booth and hope this will work eleminating dust particles settling down on the model. Besides that I'm building a wingy thingy (no photos or thread just yet, not really interesting at the moment) and I hope to revive my U-boot thread soon as well

But at the moment I need to settle with looking at cool builds going on here

Cheers
