I'm here, waiting for the lozenge decals. :)
Sometimes the talent consists exactly in that: try five dozen times when others stop at three dozen...! (F.Labelle)
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......

I've been away a lot of late so modelling has taken a back seat. Will be back on it soon. Thanks for all the positive comments.

My mojo seems to be well and truly broken. Just spent half an hour looking at the kit and thought I can't be bothered atm. Hopefully it'll return sometime soon

Wishing your mojo a speedy recovery Toby; never nice when enthusiasm for any hobby is lacking......
Best wishes

Can't believe how long it's been since I did any work on this. Summer and other pursuits took over. Anyway next week I'm having a taxy ride on Just Jane and then I'm off to the Lakes for a few days so hope to start work when I return.

Not envious at all of your ride on Just Jane..... :roll: :ha:

Hope you have a great time and you enjoy the Lakes as well. Will look forward to seeing pictures of both on your term hopefully :grin:

The mojo has returned. :-D
Using Aviatic faded 5 colour lozenge for the top of lower wing.
Far easier to use than Roden's offering which normally falls apart.

Thanks Ian. I’m in the process of selling most of my stash that’s not 1/32 or 1/48 biplanes. I’ve sold about 200 with a similar amount to go. It’ll leave me with around 100 kits. Should see me out. :mrgreen:

Good to see you back Toby - and on a proper aeroplane too! i.e one with a spare wing and at least one fan.
