Excellent!

Cheers matey  ;D

Glad you were able to add the piping and replace the springs without too much trouble! Rigging is looking amazing!

PS: I missed the Finger Part originally. Hope you Mend quickly!

Thanks RAGIII and Fredrik. Sadly somehow managed to open it up instead of the Corned beef tin. (Never even got the corned beef hash I'd planned) :'(
 Still on the plus side it's a nice clean cut and I heal pretty quickly  :P

Lovely work Paul, she is looking fantastic, I too love all those tiny details, well worth the effort. Sorry to hear about the thumb, although I was disappointed it wasn't a modelling related injury....... ;)

Plenty of those over the years Nigel, most spectacular of which was a disagreement with a 2.5cc Ollie Tiger that required 13 stictches  ::)

Oh that’s looking so nice Paul.  You’ve convinced me to try this scheme sometime.

A few tweaks to the weathering and a base needed, but calling this one completed.

Thanks for the comments and support and thanks to Dave for the inspiration

Excellent job. I think the spinner is doing an impression of a mushroom as well as the tail!

I heard that it all started when a bloke called Archie Duke shot an ostrich 'cause he was hungry!

Thanks Prze - got a few flaws, but nice to wrap it up at last (the next one will be mushroom free)  ;)

Cheers Alan - those mushroom spots nearly drove me to a different scheme, but glad I persevered  :)

That looks really good, it's come together beautifully and the colour scheme looks fantastic. Nice masking there. A lovely precise build, lots of nice detail to be admired, I'm looking forward to seeing it in the flesh as I am sure the photos don't do it justice (although I rather like the rays of sunlight breaking through.....  :))

Hi Nigel. Cheers for that matey.  ;D
I've invested in a new (old) camera at last. These are taken with the auto settings on the desk top just to try it out without any cropping or adjustment. Will experiment using a diffuser and setting manually so hopefully my slightly dodgy pictures will improve) ::)
