At 1-700 scale, how large is the base? could it be mounted on a rotating display stand? That would be awesome to be able to have the view change continuously.....sort of like watching the world go by! :nerd:

15 by 12inches Rick, could be mounted but I would have to purchase a battery powered one for it to turn automatically.

A great scene, the bilges are a really affective bit of detailing.

There is always something to add Pete like the seaplanes having an oil change.

Appreciate that Steve.

Today is rest day...didn't even make the trip to the LHS. Just resting my eyes and feeling sleepy...very unusual even after having a nap.

Cheers,

Hi Richard, 'Twould seem to me a worthwhile investment if no too costly....plenty of time to get here before the show. I would give it serious consideration being as there is sooooo muuuuch to see in such a small space. :nerd: :nerd: :nerd::thumb2:

I have a question for the Mods... do non members have access to like a posting? I have 2 likes with a question marked avatar in my alert but it doesn't appear on the list of likes after directing to the post liked. Very strange... occurring at 4.28 and 4.32 Malaysian time roughly ninish in the morning in UK on two separate postings with similar topics.

Confused,

Just a thought... could it be Simon T visiting?
