    HI to anyone,

                       In the unlikely event of this reaching any one,I have nothing to show
                 and nothing of interest to say.I did E Mail Bill with a photo of plates full of
                 cake and biscuits but I don't know if he got it.

                                                                    John.

I hope that they fig rolls and shortbread.
Your getting the hang of this.

Looks like some interesting models would have been at the meeting last night...

As far as the website response (or lack of it) is concerned, don't get too downhearted chaps; give the membership time for the self isolation boredom to really kick in and we'll probably see an increase in postings.

On a personal level, I can't wait to see all Dave's vehicles and buildings together in diorama settings...

Don't forget to go outside at 8.00pm tonight, to clap BigKev and all the other essential workers.

Hi All,
I am sorry that I didn't post pictures of my models last night.
I didn't have time after work to meet the deadline.
I did get up early (5.30am) to send Bill some stuff for his virtual 'Models on the Table' Newsletter.
So put me in detention, but remember that I can only do that after work.....

Hi All,
Well, I thought I might share with you my current on going projects. I am trying to finish off, some half finished projects during the restrictions.
My two shown here are:-

Messerschmitt Me262 Mistel Combination in 1/144th.

This will be two Me262's mounted on a scratchbuilt dolly, one atop the other. Not an actual aircraft combination, but a paper project (Luftwaffe '46) so its final appearance will be my interpretation of what it might have looked like.

Arado E377 + Heinkel He-162 Salamander in 1/32nd

This is again a paper project (Luftwaffe  '46), but consists of a big powered 'flying bomb' and a guiding aircraft, the '162' all sat on a take off dolly. I have completed the Dolly, but still need to finish the painting detail on the aircraft components.
Also I will include a pilot and two mechanic's discussing the combination prior to flight. The figures are currently painted in enamels, but once matted down will get the Oil paint details added and blended. ( A figure painting exercise)
All of this will be posed on a late/extended war setting, aircraft on planks of wood, with some distressing of the surface through handling and engine emission's.

Some pictures follow:-
Cheers,
Bigkev

John asked me to post this for him.

To be honest I'm quite happy with it...
Sorry its a bit late.
