That's great Pete, Adolph certainly looks the part!!
I'm not being cheeky, but the vehicle reminds me of the statue of Stanley in the animated film Cars: http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Stanley_%28Cars%29

Thanks Andrew, actually Disney saw my Renault conversion and asked me if they could use it as Stanley in the film. 

Cheers

Pete.

Never had a first name, even my mother called me Baldrick.

Pete, the reply from Baldrick I remember was " Sodoff. When I was a little gutter snipe I said to the other kids my names Baldrick and they said yeah we know, sod off Baldrick..."

Latest update on the dio, I've scratch built the trestles and the big ladder, I'm not sure about the big ladder at the moment, whether it's good enough, thats why it's not painted, sorry about the quality of the pics, they were taken in natural light facing the window, thats why they look a bit dark.















All comments gratefully received.

Cheers

Pete.

Dunno about dark pictures, personally I think the shots are wonderfully atmospheric. Especially the second one.

Whats the mechanic seen that he doesn't like the look of? - he looks a bit uncertain

(I was thinking your man needs to get the grass cutter out before his CO pops round, but maybe the squadron has just arrived, mind you my lawn has looked like that on occasion!)

It's that rickety old ladder, would you go up it? 

[NP]

 I see 

or maybe some bits have fallen off and hes lost them to the "grass-monster"?

-We need a leg-pull icon for the forum, grass is ok mate 

[Pete Nottingham]

Thanks, you're right we do need a leg-pull icon.

Cheers

Pete you have captured a great scene. Its got one of those early morning “Well, the job’s about complete. Now if I could only keep the pilot from abusing my machine.”

What ever the story line Pete it’s a great piece of work. Well done mate, and should receive the Pour Le Merite for exceptional craftsmanship.  "Thumbs up"!   

Paddy

P.S. I can’t understand how you all whip out such great work in the time spans you do as I crawl along in my struggles. 

I also agree that the photography with the lighting you used is very good.
