Martin's corner
Well it's not not happening that much in here, I just found a corner in the new house where to put a small table, so some day I'll get back to it
Thanks to jRatz, who found my old name in here, malepo, some memories are coming back ... dont go searching for any posts as the images are all missing. Longer story short, my email was hacked so I deleted anything related to it.
Vacant's Fairey Delta FD.1 reminded me on a series of british deltas I did
Yes, Deltas and flying wings, those were my favorites and still are. The real beast is the Testors B-2 in 1/72
This beast took me almost a year, if I remember correctly
another thing I almost everytime did ... let them fly

That's the Testors kit?! Wow, you've done a tremendous job, Martin - I recall it being a pig of a kit.

Re: Martin's corner
Yes, Paul, it is the Testors kit and yep it is quite a pig
Re: Martin's corner
That is a truly amazing B2 and to include the 'Remove Before Flight' flags as well, excellent
It's only pain, work through it.

Re: Martin's corner
Cool - I love flying wings and deltas, they're almost as cool as swing wings! Great looking builds and I hope you get back to your corner!

Re: Martin's corner
It's really great to see you back, Martin and I can remember being impressed with your work back in your Malepo days. Your collection of deltas is excellent and that big B-2 is seriously good.

Nice triangle collection!
The B-2 looks super impressive. And welcome back. I recognized the dinosaur face before I recognized the name. Glad to have you back in whatever form you come in :D

So, next step will be to arrange my corner and then start a new one

for those wondering, if any why nothing is happening here.
As our kids are grown up and left home we started to reorganize our hut, so I'm just busy painting rooms and such. My bench corner isn't existing for now, it'll move to a bigger room
So, next step will be to arrange my corner and then start a new one

Re: Martin's corner
You made me feel particularly old, so I checked and your last post was only 2015! I was worried I'd lost some years somewhere
Good to have you back, I always enjoyed your modelling.
