Excellent work and food, keep it up.
My work bench is starting to look like Portsmouth Naval Dockyard.

Well spotted young man. Have a drink on us.ShaunW wrote:Through the slight fug of my third can (just about ready for number four) I've noticed the 2112 serial on the Stug. Is Cosmic a Rush fan per chance? Or am I reading too much into it?

I'm calling this one done.
So thanks for joining us and we'll be back in August. Thanks for you support and remember kids, don't try this at home.

Cosmic is a man of great musical taste. 2112 is one of my favourite albums.
Excellent finish with the Sea Harrier OT and well done to you both. This has been a very entertaining blitz that's for sure and roll on the next Blitzbau House. Top stuff

Thanks mate. Does anyone know what type of finish the SHAR should have, Matt, satin or gloss?

I think we all need a drink after that. Great stuff (although that close-up of the bacon butty has left me a little queasy )JamesPerrin wrote:Congrats all round you deserve a drink.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Most RN a/c get cleaned at sea using the equivalent of WD40 to counter salt water corrosion this gives them a satin finish.Old_Tonto wrote:Thanks mate. Does anyone know what type of finish the SHAR should have, Matt, satin or gloss?

Unfortunately the SHAR did not survive the trip home undamaged so it needs some TLC before I give it a satin finish.
