Title: Dusting them off.
Post by: Antipodean on April 05, 2014, 10:17:12 pm

Well, finally got a moment of calm and decided to dusted off my unfinished fleet and then sat there scratching my head.


The Lady Lou is 90% done, as done as a model can ever be, just waiting on electronics to magically appear.

The Plashy has been very neglected and has even changed colour with all of the dust on her. Really need to make a space to work on her.

This one is a mystery, I originally started her as a model of the Te Hauraki from the Auckland Harbour in New Zealand but it turned out not only was the scale way off, her lines made her tubby and slow.
I am not sure what to make her into but a cabin cruiser of some kind may work.

Lotsa planning, work, precision, and a least a bit of procrastination are in every build I have done.   %)

Thanks guys. Been a bit hard pressed to find space and time these days. Looking after grandkids will do that to you.
