  1. These were all weathered years ago, and the recent discussions about road vehicles prompted me to search for the box where they've been hiding. I knew that the windows needed attention, because I had never got round to removing the Dullcote. I've given myself the task of getting on with it now, but I'm not known for doing as I'm told. You've already seen the results of the cleansing of the Fordson and now I've had a go at the Standard Vanguard. Not many to go. Ooh! Look! There's a Land Rover.
  2. Another vehicle, this time it's a Fordson van. To my eye a vehicle looks right if the wheels are accurate - a bit like a building looking right if the windows are accurate. The thickness of the metal and the hefty bumpers and number plate are of less significance overall. This is one of the early Classix models and is quite a good little model for the price. A coat of matt varnish (Testor's Dullcote) prepared it for a very light dusting of pigment.
  3. You've got it spot on, Chris. Check via Jonathan's link above
  4. They are windows, but who's to say what the owner did to prevent prying eyes? Ah! Jonathan beat me to it.
  5. Any ideas about what I can do with this?
  6. Good job it doesn't look like a bus. There are some short-sighted Stuka pilots about, I'm told.
  7. Berkshire/Oxfordshire, depending on the date.
  8. Unlike many models, this one looks better fully clothed.
  9. I think that should be called shed cabin hut garden room workshop annex granny flat outbuilding. P.S. Love that roof!
  10. Absolutely splendid, Al. I am in awe of folks who can replicate the real thing at this level.
  11. There has been such great temptation introduced on The Shed Thread that I almost wandered off down that path. But, after a bit of self discipline, I cleared everything away (again) and managed to paint some more rails. There's rain coming down at the moment, so it looks as if I won't be able to do any gardening weeding today. Such a shame. I did add an index to all my shed photographs, though.
  12. Yes, it gives greater credence to the "Little" part of the name, bringing the open countryside closer. Luvverly stuff, Kevin.
  13. You wait ages for a Martin and then along come 5 all at once. Amazing.
  14. Should have been returned. Unfit for purpose.
  15. If you want to see model sheds then Pendon Museum is the place to go.
  16. I haven't been able to find one, so I think we should invent our own. How about a plank of sheds?
