Well, I`ve never seen one of these before.  Nice job Andy, like the oily dirty look.  Looked up what this was and found this quote (so I don`t want to be on the wrong end of one  ) "I was in the Navy and witnessed this unit being fired a few times. 3 second burst turns a 50ft boat into toothpicks". Keep up the good work. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

 Hi Andy Another great build and something different to feast our eyes upon.  I for one am guilty for not showing my appreciation for the many modellers who take the time and effort to post their progress. The forum has grown so much that I mainly only stick to the ship modeller side of the forum. I could spend months going through all the diaries. When I visit the forum and go to recent posts a lot of the time it is filled with other subjects. When I try to follow a build sometimes I cannot see what they have posted despite refreshing the page several times. But mainly I find that other people have made comments that I can only repeat. Sometimes it is best to say nothing at all (sounds like a song from my youth) If I say well done Tom,Dick,and Harry what if I miss out Paul who has taken the same amount of time and effort, how’s he going to feel? There are a lot of Paul’s out there So I would like to say a big thank you to all the folks who take the time and effort to post their progress it is appreciated and gives me a lot of inspiration, to try, try try try again.

Nice work Andy, something else you’ve build that most people would even contemplate building.  Agree with you sentiments entirely. Keep up the great work.  Mark

Yes indeed, another fabulous build from you Andy, well done.
On the subject of the general apathy on this forum I can only agree with what Andy and others have said already in this thread. It is always the same handful of people that post diaries and make comment on others' work, which is unfair! There are roughly 8500 members on here which is great, but where are they? When are they going to give something back to the forum by contributing themselves (that isn't whingeing or moaning about some missing or delayed parts)?
You know, I used to be very active on here but not now as I'm afraid to say that I find it boring with little of interest if you don't like ship modelling (which I don't). We had this same discussion about a year ago, when we had the same response from people saying that they would try to contribute more and some did, for a while, but alas it has slipped back to general apathy yet again. We have had some VERY good modellers pass through this forum over the years, but sadly most of them have moved to pastures new and having spoken to most of them before they left they all said pretty much the same thing - that the forum was becoming boring and stale. I'm afraid that I agree with them!
I have my 1:72 B-29 Superfortress 'Enola Gay' build on here and I will continue to update it until it's finished. I have also started building a very nice 'Wingnut Wings' 1:32 Bristol F.2b Fighter, which I am currently posting on another more engaging forum at the moment, but I'm sorry to say that I will not be posting it on here unless things improve and to be honest if they don't then the B-29 will be my last build on Modelspace. I will leave for good at the end of it as I can't justify the time and effort that it takes to post diaries and photos when it gets little response?
Heaven knows, with the current global crisis and the forced 'stay at home' lifestyle, there should be more opportunity for members to engage with the forum, not less - but where are they?
Rant over, but I'm afraid that it needs to be said!  
P.S. - Sorry to hijack your thread Andy.
