Hi Dave,

Cool really cool man!

Thanks Kevin.

Here is a slightly different tack on my WW1 modelling, this is a 1/28 Revell SopwithF.1 Camel in R.N.A.S colours. Rigged as well.
Double wires on the Landing wires as required!

That looks nice, very ......blue. I suppose in view of the large scale, both landing and flying wires will be not actually wires but flat steel bars, like the one at the fleet air arm museum.

Yes, of course - ha, ha, ha .............................................

I am of course telling porky pies.

Now behave Gentlemen......................

The 'Art of Duelling' was still active in WWI, so I expect a clean fight with your 000 paintbrushes armed and loaded for 'The Northern Model Show'

Talking of WW1, are these very early attempts at camouflage?

Have you been to the Chelsea Flower Show?
Your topiary is very good.

Birthday treat for Mrs Haddock. That's blown my modelling budget for the next two years!
Cod and chips( not very appetizing) £9.50 a throw. It's the modern version of piracy.

I was starting to think you were becoming cultured - but back to Cod and Chips, no chance.

Chelsea Flower Show - will you still talk to us at the Northern Model Show or do you need a separate table?

More WW1 aircraft.
This time in 1:72 scale.
A Fokker Dr.1 and a Sopwith Camel.
Rigged with stretched sprue.

Is there no limit to your talents?

No double landing wires in this scale I am sorry to say.
