Nervewracking...


Is balancing an etched brass numberplate on a lump of blutack, poised on the end of a cocktail stick. And even more so when as the very last touch, you're putting them in place on a completed Coffee Pot!

 See what you think. *I* reckon that they're on straight, and in the middle :-)

 I hope to be taking this along to CHEAG tomorrow night to show how it runs...
 


 

All that it needs now is some final weathering and a couple of crew.

Cheers

    Hi Paul,

    I've really enjoyed following your progress and seeing this delightful little model come to life. It really looks the part and it seems almost a shame to weather it, as for the number plate I reckon it looks just fine.

    Cheers,
    Geoff

    Hi George,

    Thanks for the kind words. I feel that there is an element of relief at finishing this little model. Despite being a superb kit, it's also the most complex thing that I've ever tried to build.

    Hopefully there will also be an increase in the rate of work, and updating the blog will be a more frequent event!

    Cheers
    Flymo
