Another gem, this is one of my favourites so far Jim, I have to confess, I made some subtle adjustments in PS, to the exposure so as to see more detail, the paintwork is sublime!

Thanks Monica, actually some are plaster casts of some very old school do-dads I made by making RTV rubber molds of them over 30 years ago that are still to this day as soft and pliant as ever.;)

One can still purchase this magic stuff, buy some expensive aftermarket stowage and make yourself your own factory o_O;)
Resin would work much better than plaster I guess but I've never used it............Jim:smiling3:

ta for the info,Jim,
I have tried some think simulate ,using modeling putty,but get mixed results with ,them cast in resin,:rolleyes:
did see some stuff,called blue stuff,from the makes of green stuff,that you sock in hot water ,them mold,
let set,so will give that a try I think,;)

Great work Jim. I think I'll be referring back to your build as work on my 'tiny' Honey.
