Re: DAZZ BOOT!
That looks really good. Great detailing. Now when are you going to put it in the bath with you?
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!

Re: DAZZ BOOT!
Wow, can't believe I missed this!
Looks fantastic Darryl. Great build and fun reading. I really like how you did the flag.
I do like Revell kits. Except for one thing. Their idiotic mix 9% of this + 91% of that paint instructions.
Lovely build!

Re: DAZZ BOOT!
It's a lot easier if you realise that that means "1 part this to 10 parts that". Dunno why they have to put it in percentages -- maybe it's an EU directive or something equally crazy.Prisca wrote:I do like Revell kits. Except for one thing.

Re: DAZZ BOOT!
This looks really good. I got one from Peter Hall and have the plan to build it into a diorama with a 1'144th Liberator. I love the Coastal Command scheme for these aircraft and have odd photos of U-boats and Liberators. I'd better look for some little people to add to the conning tower.
So many models, so little time.

Look for N gauge railway figures. 1//146th scale (odd isn't it!) but there are loads of them about so there are bound to be some that can be easily adapted with a lick of paint.Chuck E wrote:This looks really good.

Re: DAZZ BOOT!
Very nice! I don't think anyone in their right mind would consider flying low and slow anywhere near that conning tower.

Re: DAZZ BOOT!
The problem with number like 9% and 91% is that I have to put 9 spoonfuls of the one color and 91 of the other to be sure they are correct and then I have about a pint of paint

Unless you use a serving spoon, then you get a gallon.jRatz wrote:The problem with number like 9% and 91% is that I have to put 9 spoonfuls of the one color and 91 of the other to be sure they are correct and then I have about a pint of paint
On the bright side it will be a gallon of the correct colour
