Re: Toby's table top turmoil
I'm here, waiting for the lozenge decals.

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: Toby's table top turmoil
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.

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
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

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
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.

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
Not envious at all of your ride on Just Jane.....
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

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

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
Toby this is brilliant stuff and after seeing your builds I am definitely going to have a crack at a biplane. Excellent work!

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
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.Sunray wrote:Toby this is brilliant stuff and after seeing your builds I am definitely going to have a crack at a biplane. Excellent work!

Re: Toby's table top turmoil
Good to see you back Toby - and on a proper aeroplane too! i.e one with a spare wing and at least one fan.
