        Hi all have not had any intrest in anything lately, have built four or five but none have inspired getting the paint from the cupboard ,some pics of the last two built(will try and take pics and post the others) the T something or the other is a model collect 72nd these kits are superb would recomend to anybody the big boy is a hobbyboss 48th also nice a kit with money getting tighter for people this scale is a cheaper alternative tamiya and hobbyboss do some good stuff. As I said at the mo painting mojo has moved west im sure I'll buid one soon that switches on the airbrush mode then there's a whole lot of catching up to do.

        Couldn't belive the size of the 48th links compared to what I usually work with their monolithic 35th must be like leggo bricks.

        The link and length are superb a piece of cake at this scale though beware (don't know if hobbyboss use the same in 35th but if your not careful the pre formed sag top length can be put on back to front so make sure track and return rollers match up)

            Paul and Rick, Thanks guys and time willing I should get it done by the end of this month.....

            PaulE, The kit is very well designed and with care, you can build it as a fully working model. You can collapse it into the transport mode, have it fully erected or anywhere in between if you wanted........

            Prost

                    Please keep these coming gents…I am living vicariously through you all at the moment. I have recently started renting out my spare room…a purely financial decision and very worth it in that sense. However, and nice as my new Tennant is, they are new to the area and doesn’t seem to have many friends. Meaning they don’t go out, other than to work. The problem being, the hatch and the ladder up to my modelling loft completely block access to their room. Mojo is of course high, but without invading the living room with modelling junk…I can’t get at it!

                      So somewhere in the middle of my tastefully messy bench are the two pilots for the 109s I'm working on......

                            Can't seem to let loose of "...those damn engineers". More heavy truck/load work. Clockwise from left, Bailey, Dora & amphib. transporters.
