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 8-)

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 Image)

Most RN a/c get cleaned at sea using the equivalent of WD40 to counter salt water corrosion this gives them a satin finish.

Thanks Splash, I'll do that.

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