Good to see your cat again and wish to advise that the little cat we rescued several years ago is now a stately matron. She is however still the terror of the mice.

Love the Fairlane the wing colour looks fine, so why not darken the white bonnet with a wash of Tamiya smoke

Re: Sissel's Flabbergasted Mayhem
WelcomE Back Sissel, I'm rally happy to See you again.

I think that modeling is a subtle mix of zen philosophy and absolute crazyness - but in my case I would not dare to specify the respective percentage of each......

Re: Sissel's Flabbergasted Mayhem
Cheers guys, and thanks.
I promise I haven't vanished again.
Just got very busy and haven't had a chance to sit down at the desk. And now Easter is coming fast.
I did get a chance to try fix the yellowing on the Fairlane. But I seemed to make it all worse, so I'm afraid I'm gonna have to repaint. I've read somewhere (years ago) about a technique with putting oven cleaner in a bag or something, so when I get the chance will search that up and try that.
Looks like that car will be my first airbrush project then. A shame, as I was really happy with the paint job. Shame the gloss can ruined it. But can't cry over that. Comes with the "job".
See you after Easter.

Re: Sissel's Flabbergasted Mayhem
Just a small update.
I've been and am very busy (other hobbies, hiking groups etc.). Plus I don't have the urge yet to build again. And it doesn't help with some sad news/stuff with family that's taking a toll.
So, I wont be back to the bench till after summer.
Cheers, all! Have a great summer!

Re: Sissel's Flabbergasted Mayhem
Have a great summer yourself Sissel, and I hope it allows you and yours to get over whatever troubles face you at present. You know we will be here when you get back, and we'll all be here if you need to talk/shout/rant.
Take care, best wishes
