(*Long, and drawn out*) Dang. You impress me everytime. Is that a real wood floor? Your rust and weathering overall is supurb. Enter that baby in a show and watch the ribbons come your way!

Jeff sorry no wood all plastic and PE.

I do not enter shows with my models Jeff as most are too far away from where I live. BUT most of my models (in reality ALL of my models) will soon be on permanent display at a museum here in Gympie and I may be releasing some resin kits of my own later in the year depending on my health.

Thanks for the comments Jeff

Another beaut job cobber......... it's just the total overall effect that you get, build, paint, weathering. I can see why a museum would be glad to get your collection mate.
