I consider myself fortunate to have a job still, so I don't have much more time to myself than usual, although I can break off during the day to spend 10 minutes painting something or run the 3D printer. So this little series is going to be a short account of the modelling I get up to each day, just to help keep myself amused. Some entries may be very short!

The first job today was trying to paint a grey sky backscene - and here, we're not off to a great start as I used spray paint on to plywood. It doesn't stick! Lesson learned, brush emulsion ordered...

Job 2, making some changes to my forthcoming Howard Petrol shunter kit. It used to be 2 wheel drive, but getting the front pickup to work and still have the wheels turning was proving tricky. I've redesigned it to be 4 wheel drive, and use a cheap motor, assembling which was today's job. It currently looks like this... Hopefully it'll run by tomorrow.
