Hello to all,
Good choice, you have the same scheme for W29 one. There were both in the same squadron. For this moment, my project is to do both in this scheme.
Badly, I not receive yet my W12...Please Santa Claus... ;D
Best regards.
Alain.
Use the force, Luke.

Sorry Guy, no race, I take my time, when it's finished, it's finished.
But good luck with your build.

Cheers

Pete.

Will watch with interest. Watch for the float decals, they were my undoing.

Thanks for the warning James, but after doing 'Fritz Rumeys Devil' it looks as though with a bit of care they should go on ok.

Nice to see you back and busy, Pete. I just got this Kit from James here in my hometown, I'll be following you closely and shamelessly on your build.   ;)
Cheers,
Lance

Ok guys I've made a start, as usual I've started with the engine, I've also made a start on the floats as well, the other builders have said that there may be issues with them so I thought I would get them out of the way then decide whether I have to change schemes or not.

Cheers

Pete.

Hi guys;

Sorry for the lack of updates, but I've had a few hectic weeks, first mother-in-law died, then my wife had to go in to hospital for a small procedure on her back and this week we have had mother-in-laws funeral, hopefully it is all behind me now and I can get back to modelling.

Cheers

Pete.

Thanks guys;

My wife is doing fine, the death of my mother-in-law was a bit of a blessed relief as she had been suffering from dementia for years she was 93 and she didn't know what day of the week it was, she didn't remember a thing or recognise anybody or anything.

Cheers

Pete.
