Cool! That is so close to how I was going to paint my Meteor... Sort of desert storm on steroids.

I would question who is on steroids here Ian.

If this had been me Colin I would have giggled my way through the making of this.

Not being rude Colin at all as I think it is very clever but I have had a real laugh. I thank you for that.

Look forward to the floats. Then what is next ?

Had a weekend off modeling, for a very good reason though .................

Daughter lost her last name and we gained a son-in-law :smiling3: :smiling3:

I present Mr & Mrs Brewin, long may they be happy :smiling3: :smiling3:

Back to the job in hand .......

Have eventually found a suitable component for the floats, it's already shaped in an acceptable fashion and wont take too much to improvise, overcome and adapt (heartbreak ridge flashback there:smiling3:)

And the winner is .........

I just can not wait for this Colin !!!!!!!!!!

Nice picture of your daughter & her man. I bet it was a great day as I remember they were.

Is your son-in-law a model maker or just sane ?

Congrats on the happy day, oh father of the bride speech etc - hope it all went well.

Well as you've created a bi plane BF110 in Korean markings, and on floats, how about some Rocket Assisted Take Off Gear as well. Or is that really just going too far ?

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs. wishing them a long and happy marriage.

You know Colin that bi-plane somehow looks weirdly right, and can't wait to see how the toothbrush floats come out.

I'm right enjoying this, it's so.......different/strange? Delete as appropriate.:emo6::grinball1:

little update without piccies at the mo, had a busy week what with weddings and reptiley things happening.

I got the floats sorted and they look "OK"

Gave the plane a coat of hairspray (thin acrylic varnish in effect) so the decals had a good base (as i often do with armour) and the Revel flat black "bled" into the brown and white..... strange? so it needed a good touch up ... it looks a little patch-work in places but not too bad, the nice korean decals that were orignally on it have sadly gone to the great bin in the sky.

Got other decals added now, not brilliant, not as authentic, but satisfactory.

Have an idea for a very simple, slightly humorous, diorama so i'll get it completed before posting images.

yeah ... not quite the right word choice from me there eh Tony ?... heh heh

I mean that some of the decal letters and numbers are now german, where-as they were all Korean beforehand.
