Poorly Carpet Monster

[Steve Brodie]

As i was finishing off a recent kit, a minute piece of brass fell, to what i believed, was 90 degrees straight down onto the carpet/ rug under my chair, so with illuminated magnifier i assumed the usual pose for searching - on my hands and knees and started the search, could i find it - no, but what i did find was two smaller minute pieces of brass (seat belts to a 1/48 coyote build) i completed months ago. Now at that time i also searched everywhere to no avail, this carpet/rug has been hoovered umpteen times since their disappearance, been taken off the floor, flung on the spare bed, whilst decorating the room, flung back on the floor, so i can only logically surmise that the carpet monster didn't like the brass and eventually 'threw them up'. Oh and i found the latest 'lost' item 6 feet away, they need to stop making brass bounce-able !!

Funny what turns up, normally months after a build  That is why I tend to keep away from PE I drop normal big plastic bits and the shed spiders nab them :D

oh Steve,an all too common story we do hear,and have happen,did you find the new bit you dropped after you gave up looking,? :/


maybe the monster only lurks about on your rug ,but has a home else were,and he dropped it on his way home, O.o


or he remember the other two bits as not being eatable,so thew it away lol, 9_9

shed spiders nab them
