Well if someone were to fly me out to the UK, and help me
set up a workstation, and point out were I could find materials,
good meals, and a place to stay, ..... I would be glad to have a go at it.

What's the timeline, and budget?

Ooh,..
I could head west, to Liverpool,  and pick up a football jersey, and take in a game,...
if only to make my associate in the Netherlands jealous....  :P

Or head East, and root for his Nemisis...  %)

Hi
Realised that in the first post that this is not for me but the Educational Manager at the power station who is a Relative.

Thanks for the help here, Looking at Umi's site if that is he General standard of her models I think it would look better than the actual site it would be modeled from  :}  as for a trip over , were talking the Education system type budget here.. <:(

I will Pm you and BY shortly, Thanks for you help.

I suppose it doesn't hurt to ask...

Thank you for the consideration.  :-)

Hi, I've just re-registered as I might be able to help (I was last on this forum talking about a Victorian 2nd class Torpedo Boat which I still haven't finished!). 

I run an Architectural Modelmaking company in central London:  www.flicmodels.co.uk  Making, fixing or altering models is what we do.  We also do 3D computer visualisations if that's of any use?

I know David Hale/Flic Models very well and can vouch for the superb quality of all Flics' work.

Thanks for that Popeye.  Unfortunately thanks to a combination of spineless bank managers and government lies I'm afraid that another business has gone under.  I've had to close my business.
