I dont know some people are never happy - do you know if the guy had been sitting twiddling his thumbs - he would be on this Forum, playing hell with us, for not sending for Electrical gear...I dont know - no pleasing some people is there..... {-) {-)

get stuck in there my mate, and, dont worry I will be sending for a new kit shortly, before you say owt - I got something in the pipeline.

did you ever get the Police Boat drawings from Martin Mayhem?

Bulding Jotika HMS Victory, about 2.5 more years to go !!!
Got USN Missouri, Fleetscale , in reserve, about 30% built

Just seen, at Westbourne Models,  the new HMS Vanguard kit from Victory/Amati - looks good but expensive

Still working my way through a Steve Neill kit of the U-212 class German sub U-33. It does begin to look like a sub now...I think?

Trying hard to complete Huntsman---started 10months ago-just the paintwork to finish.
Then going to start a new kit from Deansmarine--TRADITION-this is based on a Scottish fishing vessel.
After seeing the Springers for the first time at Llanberis  last weekend I have no doubt that will be the next project.
Have already down loaded the plans but looking for inspiration to design the superstructure. O0

Just finished reworking my Griffin Hovercraft so as to increase performance.

Have now started another hovercraft to my own design which will be a long term build.

Also going to build Griffin 600.

I am doing a Slo-Mo-Shun in 1/8 (or there abouts) from scratch. Pictures in "Oh no! Not another slo-mo?" thread.
Building from scratch. A first build too, so that could be fun!
Have a set of drawings of a 63ft rescue launch, as in Bluebirds feature!!!


Looking for a 1/8 Ferrari boat kit too.

Just remade an anchor for my Tito Neri, which I lost at the lake :embarrassed:

Steel stock and flutes for a bit of weight so that it drops out of the box.

I would take and post some pic's but in the bottom draw of my desk in my cabin on the ship is where the leads for my camera are (I hope) if not I've lost them in the trip home  >>:-(

Ive been toiling away at a Boston Fury trawler on and off for the past year and just started a Model Slipway Sentinel.     The hull of the Sentinel is almost complete except for the filling and painting and I have started cutting out parts of the superstructure today.

I spent some of Sunday continuing to plank the decks of my Dreadnought. There's the equivalent of 8 sheets of A4 of planking needed in total.

In four/five hours' work I got 1/3rd of a sheetsworth done.  :o

Have re-engined paddle steamer Glenrosa, have just completed a plug and mould for MV Pioneer at 1:50, hull now laid up and looking great. O0

Still working on MV Caledonia ex Arran and Mull CalMac ferry at 1:50 and well and truly on the back burner at the moment is reconditioning DEPV Talisman.

So many projects so little time. ::)
