Cracking work on the building my friend.

Gordan Bennett John, lovely work!! So much detail!

Is there room inside for my modelling room?

Hi Bob, thank you very much, yes quite spacious inside if you shrink to 1/35 :smiling2::smiling2:

Superb John and your rusting skills are apparent again.

Thanks Peter, to be fair its done with Ferric Chloride, a mix made with water and the sheet is dipped in , if you leave it too long it eats it away ! Certainly gives to right look.

John

Moving the work on the building!

Spent most day after my early 30 min walk at just gone 0600, in the cave painting.
Results as follows.


Need to glue a wooden bat to the top of the corrugated.






A little tidying on this end then its the wooden fences, happy days.

Paul, cheers.
Surprisingly I came out better than I had hoped for as I didn't do any dry brushing.

I know Bob, the lady across the road calls it "Stupid oclock " Since I've retired I normally get about around 0830 and later.

A wooden bat?

Cricket, baseball or vampire?

[Mini Me]

I suspect our good JR is referring to what we in the USofA refer to as a "ridge cap". :rolling: Rick H.

Well spotted Simon, glad some one reads the small print ! :smiling:
I had intended to say batten !

Hi Rick, thank you for your help, we also would say " ridge cap " or capping.

Today spent some time doing Friuls, takes me some time with my limited depth of field, but armed with the optovisor It is a lot easier.


I did try some double sided tape, the idea seems ok, and the links stayed on, but could I get the wire through !
Admitted defeat and returned to holding between fore finger and thumb and pushing the wire through, at least that way you have some wiggle room.
Hope to complete this stage tomorrow.

John.

The joy of Friuls! It can be therapeutic John, the building is looking good.
