Thank you for following along, guys. 

With Rick and Andreas starting their's, I thought I'd better post some progress pics just so y'all know I'm still on it.


Pete, did we meet while you were there?

Left to right, Slava, me, Edgar and Sergey.

Or, perhaps, this lovely lady sold it to you.  My wife, Carol, acted as translator whenever neither Edgar nor I were around.  She sold quite a few kits.


Cheers,
Bud

Your interiors are looking fabulous Amigo! I envy your being able to be at Scale Modelworld and interact with the whole CSM gang. Sounds like your Wife is quite the Spokesperson and saleswoman for CSM!

Thanks, Amigo!  As you have probably discovered by now, these interiors are very comprehensive kits themselves, down to the tiniest detail.  So much fun, but time consuming.
Yes, SMW was a blast and Carol is an enthusiastic advocate for CSM.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks, but clicking on that link returns "Bad Request".

Hmmm.  Works for me.  Try going this route, Gene.  Click on this link, then scroll to the bottom.  Last one, Ami Cher Vol 7-4 Dec18.pdf.

Fingers crossed.
Cheers,
Bud

Clicking on that link returns "Bad Request" and I can't get further.

But thanks (again), I'll try sorting it out with another browser when I have time.

Hi Gene,
Try this link.

Hi Bud,
I see the 'boss' wagging her finger at someone - were you sat opposite?
I see me and Sharon are sat at the back - I wonder what I'm bragging about!!

Glad I found this build(s). I have an early Nieup wrapped and under the tree with my name on it.
My wife hasn't seen it yet so at least one of us will be surprised on Christmas morning :)

Hi Bud, looks like it was Slava who handed us the kit, while Carol whipped the money out of my hands! Lol. Check out the CSM photos on the Telford link in "hobby shows"  regards Pete in RI

Bud,

Your progress looks good !  My N.17 was waiting for me when we returned Friday from our Christmas vacation  with Brad, Rachel and Reese (now 4 & 1/2) in Seattle. But it'll be a while before  getting it into the Queue.

Many things happening this coming year for us, will give you a call in a few days.
