RMweb Gold Limpley Stoker Posted May 30, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 30, 2018 What a great idea Andy........ Can you image where a 4yr and a 6yr old would end up placing the glue 'n glaze - I can .... everywhere except where it was needed! Whilst they where watching Peppa Pig I have cleaned up around the edge of each window glazing by removing of any overspill of the rubberised glue with a cocktail stick Thanks, you sit there and think three more sides to go!!!!! and then remind oneself that it is after all a hobby which we enjoy......? Beware of grandchildren watching Peppa Pig. George always gets away with saying no to everything and Daddy pig is portrayed as an oaf. However grandpa pig is sort of wise... Those coach windows are well worth the effort- they look so much better and, having lost the prisms, much larger! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold sjrixon Posted May 30, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 30, 2018 B set coach is looking good.. My glazing is still in the packet, can I send over two coaches and two packets of glazing? I'll happily watch Pepper Pig, that's what I end up doing anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like that'd go nicely with stir fried veges, washed down with a glass of sauvignon blanc sorry grandchildren, grandpa's getting a bit deaf.

Thanks I can confirm a full risk assessment was carried out prior to signing off, of the task. All safety measures where in place and rigidly enforced throughout the process. It can be confirmed that no photographer came to harm whilst expediting the photographic procedure.

Her basket handle looks really grippable. A lovely cameo. Thanks Another Modelu figure from the Pendon range. This picture also highlights the beauty of using cropping to centre on the main area of attention. Where she is standing and the angle I wanted I couldn't get the TZ100 into it so I had to use the slimness of the iPhone 6s to fit in. I turned it upside down so the lens was close to the ground to get the low shot. This is the original Far to much out of focus around the edges, so I cropped in close and then used a dark vignette perimeter to further dim the out of focus which draws your eye into the centre. The picture was then run through Affinity and then exported back as a JPEG to ensure this site did not invert the picture as the iPhone was technically upside down.

Well if they wonted to hid why on earth did they take a big red hula hoop with them? Better phone Jack and tell him they have been seen.... I tell you when he gets hold off them they'll be in for one hell of a roasting! Did you see them? Edited June 9, 2023 by KNP 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
