Sherman Advance - a modellers tale

Hi Zon, Thanks for dropping in and your kind comments, appreciated. The paint those troops campaign was a lot of fun and there was some really terrific work produced there, I really enjoyed watching all the builds develop. Cheers Al

A truly impressive portfolio of the most interesting WWII subjects know to modelling (Brit of course ) Seriosuly though, really great work Alan, that is an impressive showcase of first rate builds

Hiya Alan, Long time no speak, but I will admit that your collection is absolutely amazing and shows how dedicated you are, with not just the building, but the research, help to others and the other works that crop up so regularly on the site. I do not know how you manage to keep such a strong focus, what with the real world that must intervene, so as to keep on living. Fabulous mate............now you need to keep these shots and add the next gawd knows how many completed projects at you ten year anniversary. Yours Aye' John

Hi Chris, Many thanks and a I had nice one to fnish off with, in the Churchill and interior, so thank you for that. Hi John, Hello your goodself. Nice to hear form you again. I hope all is well with you and yours. John, the build list is long and getting longer all the time, so I should have enough to cover the next five years There has been such a mountain of new stuff these last 2 years it's hard to keep track. Work eats into the modelling time for sure, and the reviews and other stuff take up a bit more but fortunately or unfortunately SWMBO works Saturdays so once I've done my chores I can sometimes get a free run so to speak. The rest is an hour or two each evening to keep things progressing. Great to hear from you. Cheers guys Al

alan your stuff is just brilliant in so impressed regards andrew

Hi Andrew, Many thanks for looking in and the comments. Always room for improvement, I'd like to do some more work on some of the early builds sometime, fix a few errors/omissions. There is always something lol, lol. Hope all is well with you. Cheers Al

Alan just dropped in from aeroscale to say congratulations on a super feature and a fantastic body of work..your collection would put that of most museums to shame .. (I've just come home after a day at Muckleburgh - it wasn't quite as good as I'd remembered it...) all the best Neil

Hi Neil, I have never been up to Muckleburgh but It looks worth a visit. Nice looking 'Grizzly'. Thanks for dropping in and you comments, appreciated. Here's a link to Muckleburgh if anyone is interested. http://www.muckleburgh.co.uk/home.htm Cheers Al

Al, a superb body of work. My only suggestion would be to add a "crib sheet" identifying the various kits and upgrades used. I can figure some of that out, but I'm sure you'll have admirers who'll want to recreate some parts of your oeuvre.

Hi Bill, Thanks, now that would be a long list !! Still very much a WIP Cheers Al
