    Amazing Ron, I have one of these in the stash that I bought years ago. If I can do it just a fraction of the justice you have bestowed upon it I'll be a happy boy! Well done!

      Thanks everyone, your posts make for excellent reading!

      Polux, you can go ashore now. The rescue is complete.....

      Jason, please be aware, whilst the kit is o.k., the safety rails are very thin and difficult to remove from the sprues and the decals are very, very brittle - I suspect mine was quite an old kit.......

      Cheers all,

      Ron

        Ron I just came back for another gander at this......Wow again !

        Have you done a" how to" sort of thing for your water anywhere? I'm not joking, it really is the best I've ever seen. If I can get something half as good I'll be over the moon.

        Cheers

        Steve

          Hi Ron,

          Yet another truly stunning piece of work Sir, and, as Tony said, you really do feel for the poor buggers in the water, gives me the chills just looking at it...

          Huge ***** from me...

          Andy...

            Thanks Steve and Andy for your posts. I'm sorry for the delay in replying...been away.

            Steve, making the waves is pretty well covered in the builds. It would be difficult to do a 'How to' 'cos it's rather like riding a bike....any amount of words won't come close to hands on. It really is just flicking the silicone about with whatever is to hand....

            I think others who have had a go at lively water would agree.......Have a go and practice!

            Andy, thanks for the stars too!

            Cheers,

            Ron
