"The esteemed Mr Robinson"...thank you! ...I like that! (£50 Costa's coffee token on it's way, White Rabbit)
I have to spend most of my time making fairly soul-less replicas of gas modules and shopping centres, so when I get a chance to let my imagination fly, I take it. I do occasionally get railway modelling oriented jobs where the customer wants an exact replica and I will do that if the money is right, but I much prefer when the customer lets me do something from scratch and lets me give it the full treatment with weathering and detail etc. Luckily, I have a couple of very lovely customers just now who let me do what I do best (no, not mining...) I also get pretty burnt out after the jobs for rather unpleasant business folk with their suits and deadlines, even if it does pay very well... but railway modelling is so much more civilised.
Allan has created another masterpiece of texture and form, he really is the Constable of structure building and I am now sure he has done some sort of deal with the devil...how do you work so quickly mate? Colron, I guess, taken intravenously. Anyway, this Tintagel model is wonderful.I had thought I'd seen it all from the master. Apparently not.
cheers,
Iain
