Jssel not a chance after the Z-142.
I'm a bit put off so I'll lay low for a while just doing little bits here and there learning how to spray that damn red paint!

Thanks. I have identified a small German bridgelayer type AFV thing to tackle, and have checked box contents out for completeness. Real life has caught up this week, and next is school half-term, so I will sort out the kit parts at weekend and do the pre-build admin, then I will wait until the week beginning 19th, and take two daytime type slots (around family life) to tackle the kit.

Spent some time this morning attempting to add glamour shots of the Hurricane but Photoimage can not recognize the dimensions of the photo size. I size the photo prior clicking on the link to upload like I always top but I get the same message. Tried retaking the photos but still the same. Will try again later. I don't have the computer savvy to understand why it is doing this now after so many successes.

P.S. Just ran a test with a known working photo and got the same response. Think that Photoimage make have a burp in the system. Not to worry, I will try later.

I have the same problem increasingly often with Postimage; it shorts itself in the end but very frustrating!

My plan to attempt my first blitz has been scuppered; as some will know from my workbench thread, my Father-in-law is not so good at present, and understandably this is causing a certain amount of upheaval in family arrangements. Work has also gone a bit bananas with design work so I'm stuffed that way too.....
Hopefully things will improve in both departments and allow me to join in towards the end of the month. I need to identify another victim candidate to build, as the Modellcollect V1 and launch ramp I was going to use has got built already! :roll: :-D
Perhaps a Bandai Palm-size kit..... 8-)

The popularity of “Braille Scale” armor pieces has me thinking of an ArmourFast Stug IV as a second Blitz.

I am still on Plan A with the FROG Typhoon, as soon as I can open a hole on the calendar; may not be able to do two.
