Centimetres.
Here is another one 22 parts, come back etched brass, all is forgiven.
I'm not sure if card modelling is for me!

Card modelling on hold, well abandoned to be honest, I cannot get it to look like anything but a card ship!
I am admitting defeat, card modelling like this is not for me.
I have not binned it yet though.

I have just attended the Hull Model Show and had a really good day, the Hull lads worked hard and overcame a lot of problems.
I went as the Great War SIG, lots of interest shown.

I did buy a few tools and this kit from Meng.
It is the 1/35 French Renault FT-17 with cast turret - produced at the end of the war.
it has a full interior.
I have already built the one with  riveted turret.
Am itching to start but I must tidy up first.
Here is the box art and the version I intend to build.
Not sure about posting the build as it will be similar to the other.

you always manage to find these oddities. Looking forward to seeing it in Progress.

I need to get back to modelling, but seem to be lacking motivation at the moment.
I have started the Renault but that is it.
Come on Dave, pull yourself together.

He got no sense from conversation, though.

I hope my next is always better

I bought the Meng 1/35 British Heavy  tank with interior detail, looks like a great kit.
Maybe this will stir the modelling into action.
I did buy other things as well.

Hey Zak....good to see you back online!

The tank is on hold while I tackle a 1/32 Tommy's War 1914 Douglas Motorcycle.
As no figures are supplied I shall build mine with a female dispatch rider as shown.

Hi,

In touch with your feminine side again Zak?

Nice to see this one, a little different to all those heavy brutish machines.
