Well I,was going to make a start on the old girl,this morning,but ,this fuzzy girl,took my seat,guess I will
need to pull up another one,don,t have the hart to move her,my little shadow friend,:smiling:
always later on to start,and anyway the rerun of sea9 ep 9 is on as well,the walking dead,great show,:smiling:

Monica, looks like your fuzzy furry friend has a twin with the same colored collar. We've got one just like her or more like she adopted us. The queen always gets her place to sit and the humans have to vacate primarily me that is.

Good start on the Tiger. Off this Monday and when I'm back will see more of your build.

Cheers,
Richard

Morning Monica.
Any seats left ? Looks a very interesting idea, and a good start by the look of it .
As for the AB I'm always supprised when it all works well. Better since I started to use a flow improver .
Good luck , if it turns out as well as that last one you will be one happy lady.

J. R., you're asking the wrong person about seating, check with the cat, it owns them all!:tongue-out2:
Monica, great progress so far. Could you check with your feline friend and see if it is o. K. for J. R. and myself to join in? Cheers, Rick H.

Hi Monica
Great idea. Always interesting to see a model inspired by a photograph. Looks like you are off to a good start.
Love your little, hairy, modelling friend.

Monica,

Off to a good start, nice clean build, tigger taking shape and have to warn you about 453 Race - Matron doesn't know he's slipped out - keep him on the front row - where Fuzzy can keep her eyes on him!!!! :smiling::smiling::smiling::smiling:

Paul.

I find even as you shake the bottle of primer,Vallejo,the top 3/4 will work better than the last 1/4,
always seems thinker than the rest,funny how that works,

well an update on this one,have some color,on her,gone for only a bi,not tri,color,
as I,m real not to sure,of what she had,lefted off,the other road wheels,still need to add,
one guard,which is a bit bent,and a few other little things,
as for the color,as I,said real not sure,like a lot to do with this,one,
so if any dose have some info ,saying it was a tri,would be of a great help,
also some sticks for the tree,s ,as only showing the bottom part,
wish i could find a pic for the background,without the tank in it,as well,
hope your liking it so far,
