Looking good, the posh one could be a lifeboat house.

Too small, it may become someones workshop.

When is enough rust enough?
It is very difficult to decide, but will leave it like this and see what I think about it in a day or two.

You know, that is what my mum used to say to me, being a ginger head (when I had hair).

Before I got side tracked by Haddock into something by the sea, I was building a motorcycle for a small diorama. Then I thought some of the fishermen would like an old bike, so I include it here and hence the amended title.
This is a 1/35 Thunder Models Indian 741B, but built in civilian mode, quite a bit of etched brass, especially for the wheels.
I have added the stays to the front mudguard as extras so far.

Thought you might say that. Be liberal with the tar.

An hour or two???....        it takes me longer than that to decide whether I can be bothered or not!

That must be it, no thinking, just do it.
Picked a bucket full of peas and podded them this afternoon, a couple of lbs of strawberries and raspberries as well, now I might do a bit of modelling.
