HI all here's what I'm building as a competition on another place.  Can't tell you what's going to happen to the poor fella, think of the warspite dio, there will be at least a couple of explosions, I have a feeling none of you will know where this is going till the last couple of posts. There was a little flash on the parts but the worst bit of the kit is the awful mold seams on all the wings.      Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Nice Start. That brings back memories, my first car was an orange beetle 1200, minus the flowers though. Regards Mark

Thanks Tony (off to Cyprus for a week) it's not a smoke effect but it's going to be the thing that causes all the trouble. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Now this is starting to get to me. This creature is really familiar but I can't quite place it. It's got to be an old sci fi film or doctor who.Please don't tell me it's from the depths of your imagination Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Maybe this will help (a direct quote from the musical) A huge, rounded bulk, larger than a bear, rose up slowly, glistening like wet leather. Its lipless mouth quivered and slavered, and snake-like tentacles writhed as the clumsy body heaved and pulsated Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Well some people are so rude. I'm a member of Instagram ( I have been a member for a while but only really started posting model pics lately)I don't know much about social media but normally I just post pics with no explanation so I posted these pics as it gone along, after this update I got 80 likes in one day (that is the most I've had so far) well I got a private massage saying "you should stick to drawing this is crap my six yr old could do better"that's just plain rude, I don't know them, they don't know me, and obviously a lot of people like it, I don't know why people feel they have to make statements like that. I've looked ate some of their posts and they don't even build models (at least if they do they're so crap they don't post them) Ken's the name modeling's the game.
