Thanks, my friends! I've been crazy busy all through January and February, but lately I've had a few hours at the bench.
Today I gave that well some serious abuse- Wendy's getting gun shy!

Thanks, Kamerad!
This little bugger has gotten to the point that it takes an alert mind and a gentle touch to work on it. So many delicate parts!

Thanks, gents!
I've tried something new- and gotten decent results so far. One thing I will emphathize is to use a "light hold" type hairspray- I use a "heavy holding" variety and had a time scrubbing it off. No worries, though- read on!

Well, some days you get the bear, some days the bear over-runs your base and drives off in your favorite tank. Wendy Wehrmacht knows the feeling- right, Wendy?

Big fan of all of your work buddy. Nice recovery here. I don't know if I could be bothered after that and it might have become a resident on the shelf of doom.

Thanks, gents- yes, modeling is its own minefield!
I did a lot of checking- and reading- and asking- and I gave it another try. Let's go, Wendy!

Great job yet again Chuck! No matter how easy the wash seems to be, I always still manage to stuff it up, yet you make it look brilliant. Great work!

Awesome and very rewarding way to allow us to follow a very detailed building process.
You have a very honest way to show us all the mistakes and then take us through the Solution process as well. I thank you very much for doing this.
Learnt as lot from this build so far.
Cannot wait for the next episode,
I have a passion for the PE as well. I believe it makes a big difference to the finish.
Eagerly awaiting the Zundapp build.
The chess set is a very nice addition.
Who makes that kit ? The chairs and table are excellent.

Thanks, Herman! So glad you find all this blather fun and informative. Cheers!
We've had a rough week which has curtailed building a bit. We lost our beautiful bulldog, Dynamite, to pneumonia. Tragic! We're pulling life back together, but you know how it is.
Monroe Perdu is the maker of both the chess set, the table and chairs and the well itself. As a sneak preview, I've also picked up this item from them:

I did roll up too much Miliput for my Ju388 build and used it to make some cobblestones. You'll be seeing them soon-

Thanks, Steven!
I did this work last weekend but only now have had a chance to write it up. This little honey has been keeping us busy- she's Andromeda, Andi or Annie) for short. Pfennig's ego has bloated while I've been paying attention to the new pup- I'll let him call the game this week.
