Hello.

Fifthace (or something like that) here. Not been on for quite some time for a range of reasons, real life stuff, money (always comes back to money), forgot logins (hence my previous and current name), server crashes, catastrophic modelling "accidents" which we won't mention Crying

Anyway, first, I've been made aware my previous build logs became unreadable due to the images being deleted, I apologise for this. It was mainly due to me not renewing my server which all my images were stored on.

I still have 90% of the images in question and as and when I get time I will re-do the logs of the two or three models that were complete, (Santa Maria, Supermarine Spitfire and the Aida Luna (even though the lighting in the latter failed Angry )

As for my SotS build...well, lets not go there shall we Crying Suffice to say, I have had to restart that from scratch, although am doing it via a 12 month option instead. (With plenty of spare parts available). Currently that is about half way through the 1st planking stage.

I also have Caldercraft's HMS Victory about half way through.

Upcomming I have the new version of Revells Aida, but the Blu (slightly different kit) which I will also be planning on lighting, and improving on the first one.

The build I am particularly excited about starting is Tamiya's 1/12 Ferrari Enzo kit. This is an impressive multi-nedia kit with a price tag to match. I've also spent about £100 on top of the £300+ price tag for some PE/Resin top up kits.

I'll sort out some photo's once I can decide on a reliable way of sharing them, (probably via a web server again just with reg backups) and I will introduce you to my 'shed' too BigGrin

Cheers Tom Cool

Thanks Carl, me too. Been after it for a few years now.

I'm not "allowed" to have it until Christmas...but I used the excuse of "having to make sure it was all complete and undamaged" to be able to steal a look BigGrin

Good news.

I've got the Enzo in my stash and maybe your build will give me the kick up the rear to do something with it.
Looking forward to your build.

Matt....you have this beast gathering dust and you've not started it? Are you mad LOL

Hopefully yes my build will give you incentive....I'd recommend getting the extra detail kits (although I know there is an insane amount of detail in this kit oob). Mine just arrive today and they are well worth the extra expense, given the cost of the base kit anyway, you may as well.

I'm not going to be starting this till Christmas at the earliest, probably boxing day as I will be moving in my shed if I spend all xmas day in it lol. But I will post some photo's of the kit contents and the extra detail packs later.

Cheers
