Can't be from my store Chris - these are full bottles of rum, mine all seem to be empty - hohoho

My mistake. They are probably a bit small anyway!

So you're using upmarket labels then and not the Tesco bargain ones? I had a glass (or two) of Kraken the other night. Mmmmm

I wondered if you had turned them.

No just a bit of work with a round and then flat file.

Some rusting done on the washing machine and the Piaggio van.

Piaggio and washing machine added to the base.

Hi Msea,
That looks scary...
I think the washing machine looks excellent.
Great entertaining build this, and so many great modelling skills evident.
Cheers,
Bigkev
I hope my next is always better

I like the rust effect, very real looking.

Thank you both for the comments - BUT did the van and the washing machine separately and when I have fastened them together noticed that the fresh rust stains on the washing machine are flowing in the wrong direction. 
Now will they wash off and I can then put some more on the correct way round ????
