      Ive tried 3 different times to get them to work. They just flake off while I apply the rest. I caved and bought some pressfix to finally get somewhere with my wagon.

  2. Spitfire2865

    Cant do anything on plane till I get dowels thursday. Well, since the microsol arrived, maybe Ill get back to the PO wagon.

  3. Spitfire2865

    My plane is coming together. May be ready to fly in a week.

  4. Spitfire2865

    Thinking Ill take a bit of a break from railway modeling to build up funds and try my hand at a stick and tissue plane. Hoping I dont make a mess of it.

      Good experience for the real world I'm afarid. Almost as bad as so called Youth Hostels. However not as bad as being trapped in a B 7 B with stag or hen idiots.

    Hmm. Need money to buy kits to fill up my free time to stop myself from losing my mind...

      conversely - I need to get spare time to stop me losing the will to live under a small hill of kits. The grass is always greener.....

      losing your mind? Have you looked down the back of the sofa? That's usually where mine ends up. Along with bits of kits.

      yorkie_pudd

    Get time to model and I manage to get a splinter in my hand which keeps irritating me.

  14. Spitfire2865

    The only modeling Ive done this week is a bit of painting. And none this weekend either. So much goes on I dont get time to myself.

      Its so painful to have the drive to do something but not the time.

       

  15. Spitfire2865

    Salt water taffy is a good modeling snack.

  16. Spitfire2865

  17. Spitfire2865

    I think for my first attempt at painting a PO wagon, it went well.

      How would a workbench thread be worked exactly? I dont have a whole mess of time, and I usually get maybe a little bit here and there done. And I always rush off to do a thing and then halfway through I realize it would make a good workbench entry. Haha.

      Do you think i should wait for my next wagon? Or start with this one?

    3. Nelson Jackson

      Nelson Jackson

      Take a look at mine, I'm the same, I usually start a project never to finish it but to start another, I reckon you should start a workbench with your current wagon, you'll get plenty of feedback about it, but it's up to you, you don't have to make a thread, it's your decision. And I'm interested in finding out how you achieved that superb wooden interior on the LMS 3 plank wagon.

    4. Spitfire2865

      Spitfire2865

      For the 3 plank, its not a big secret. I followed your "painting realistic wood" thread.
