Battleship "Sevastopol" in Kronstadt harbour 1917

[MSea]

Anchors made to go round the staue of Admiral Makarov.
Brass bar bent and solder together and a brass loop made for the top. Good job I got some black chain at Telford last year -- now Haddock can start with his chain jokes again !!!!!

Nice buildings, nice anchors! You are a talented man. Dont let any jokes about anchors weigh you down!!!!!

[MSea]

Thanks Kiteman.
 At Telford I got etched brass 1/350 scale bike from L'Arsenal to go with the group of sailors having a small revolution on the dock next to the Sevastopol and the statue of Makarov.  Brass rails are bad enough but this has been a pain ---- and to cap it all when the bike was finished, the carpet monster got it ( a lot of naughty natical language ensured ) it has now been retrived but is a bit bent but never mind ( I bet you most of our group can't even see it on the dock - but I know its there. )

I have got myself an offcut of lino from our floor covering shop which I've cut to fit and laid it under my bench.  No losing bits in the carpet for me! 

[MSea]

Well building now have doors and are fitted to the dock. The white words  on the walls is not just a lot of russian looking letters but reads "Freedom,Equality,Fraternity" and the other is " All power to the soviets" --- see a bit of research pays off in the end.
Now to make the buildings look part of the landscape not hovering above the floor, a bit of dirt and muck should do the job !!!

Nice Msea, very nice......................

Have you a contract with 'Specsavers' for the building of the bicycle. I find bigger things lurking in the corner of my wallet!

I can only find fluff in my wallet - "she who must be obayed" seems to remove anything useful from it !!!
Talking about Specsavers - did you like the large arrows on the paper to direct some of our group to find the model  --- ho ho ho ho

[zak]

Sounds like you are doing Santa impersonations Martn!

[MSea]

I wonder which list YOU are on ??

[zak]

I list to the right actually.

[MSea]

[Wizzel]

Let's be having a close up of that "strawberry rejected by supermarkets" - AKA the red rock with the green sea-monster climbing up it!  Twas good to see in the flesh last night!

[MSea]

Just for you Kiteman -- I have made gates to go between the buildings and have decided to put anchors on them. The buildings have also been "anchored" to the floor.
