the suggestion I would like to make is,all us builders of......whatever? put up our diarys at the same time as pics,this sounds very easy but,what annoys me is I look for abuild of say a tank,and what do I get? 3 pages of talk and no tank?????how is that a diary?all that talk should, I think go to the general discussion page of that model.I'm not saying don't make comments,I just think some diarys are started too early.

well said karl,

i like to look at peoples diaries to see their fine workmanship, and to find out if they have had the same problems as me, and if so, how they have resolved them. i agree that a build diary should be a diary of a build, not umpteen pages of what they might do or not do, with another umpteen pages of speculation of the future parts may hold.


i only update my own victory diary when i have completed a goodly amount of work, but i do enjoy others who take us through their build step by step.

of course members should leave kind comments, i'm sure you agree karl, that is fine, but like you, i get fed up of all words and no pictures
Come on you Jimmies
