Welcome aboard Geoff, Hope you enjoy your stay with us and good luck with your build. When you attach your pictures if you resize them to 600x337 then they will show up instead of having to download to view. You can resize on Microsoft paint built into windows. Chris  On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.

Chris Thank you for explaining I resize my photos, I resized them to 600 X 337 but only the first one shows in my post now, don't know why the others didn't show. Thank you to the rest of you guys who welcomed me aboard. Geoff44 attached the following image(s): BUILDING - HONDA CB750 - HAYNES V8 VISIBLE ENGINE

Thank you pemberg. Here are a few photos of my Burago E-Type 1:18 scale. Notice though that it is a lighter shade of green than the DeAgostini model. But something to whet the appetite whilst we await the first parts of the build. Enjoy! Geoff44 attached the following image(s): BUILDING - HONDA CB750 - HAYNES V8 VISIBLE ENGINE

I received my first parts today, issues 1 and 2, but will be putting them to one side until I have a few more issues. I have also been having a few off days,so I didn't feel up to working on any of my other builds. Recovering fully from paralysis after a stroke is a long process and you get days when you find it difficult to manage certain tasks. But I'm getting better as time goes on.
