Thank you all for your kind comments, they're really appreciated.

Thank you all for kind comments they are genuinely appreciated. I made a show case for it to be put in the residents lounge, to protect it from dust and inquisitive fingers. Unfortunately a few weeks ago someone decided to take off the case and smash several parts of it. As we have dementia...

Only two completed this year as a lack of interest to be honest. The first was an R/C 1/32 Arkmodel/Hooben Perkasa which fought me all the way, so sold it as soon as I finished it. The other a special build for the daughter of a close friend, who passed away before he completed his 1/1 build.

Hi guys. Sorry I have been off the grid for a while dealing with family stuff. Along with trying to rearrange my wife's 60th birthday, that should have been in Lanzarote with our girls and girl friends. As the holiday was cancelled due to this covid business, we managed to sort a surprise party...

For the portholes I used a drill to make holes in the superstructure, and I used plastic tube cut into little sections and inserted them into the holes leaving a little proud. At a later stage I'll use 'Gauzy Stuff' to for the actual glass. Having put together the superstructure and clad it in...

Some times the easy solution is difficult to see at first.

Using a combination of Sarik supplied Navena plans and the shipbuilder blue prints provided by another group member, I started off with the usual basic skeleton with which to fit the deck and hull sides to. So as not to waste what I have in stock, I resorted to cutting up cereal boxes to make...

Could you not put a crank/pivot along on the Hanger wall, connecting the snake to the door connection lever to reverse the push/pull motion. Alternatively if you want to keep the HB clear, put a 90 degree link where the servo is. Just a suggestion. half way

Roughly 1/64th

I am currently in the middle of a scratch build for the residents of the care facility my disabled wife and I live in. Born and bred in Hull, we have a long history with the fishing industry that sadly is no more. Several of the residents and their families are ex trawlermen, who only have...
