   Incredible job on the interior detail, Dave. Can't imagine what's in store for the exterior.............. ???
Very nice, I'll be watching your progress closely.
Cheers,
Lance

A hard act to follow Dave- really top class work.

I like the pink tinge you have given to the inside fabric which would be the bleed through from the external surfaces.

Best wishes

Hi Terry,

It's a small copy of the cover from the Morse code Handbook.

Did you spot the WW1 Pinup?

Cheers

Hello Dave:

I did, there are two of them on the wall of the observer station.  Magnificent work Dave.  Absolutely magnificent.

Good to hear from you guys again. Been a bit lax these past few weeks. Family and all that jazz.
Geting back into it again. Had a look at all the stuff going on here. Well done to all.

Catch you later boys.

Cheers

Dave

Cheers Des, now that I've got more time and Winter has gone, things
just might happen. Have one wee surprise (related to a future project)
and will post a picture very soon. Take care

This is a Mercedes Engine, freshly removed from some German thingy.
Scratchbuilt and not complete yet, but it gives you an impression.

Cheers

Hi Mark

It will eventually be mated to a Roland . . . . At some point  ;)

Hope all is good with you and yours.

Catch you again soon

Take care

Very nicely done Dave, the hoist and the engine are a work of art and a great diorama on their own, but mated up with a Roland will really make this come to life, well done.
