I have to to apologize, Peter, indeed, I noticed just this morning the difference Belgium/New Zealand and I thought about making yesterday a confusion especially I didn't know of any project of Shay moving in New Zealand. And now your message cleared the situation.
Sorry again!
Nicolae

Thanks Nicolae. No need to apologise. Easily done and you are not the first. Not at all offended. We Kiwis are very relaxed about most things.

Just don't call you Australian!

Are you eligible for state funded counselling ?

I'm afraid not Peter - in this age of austerity they simply told me to sign up to MSC. Their reasoning was that I'd feel less weird in the company of grown men who prefer expensive modelling materials to expensive whiskey

Well apparently Group Therapy has been very beneficial to many  whiskey addicts and other drinkers, those suffering from extravagant shopping addictions and barstards suffering with insecurities. Time will tell. We will be looking for signs of progress from you.
However it is most unlikely that group therapy will be able to help with your urinary problems. May be best to see a specialist about that little issue.

.....We are probably both going to be barred from here if this conversation continues. Is it possible for your wife to censor all your future posts until you are able to overcome your behavior disorder ?

Speaking of therapy - Management and I are away on the bike tomorrow for a week before the weather turns cold. Going up to the top of the South Island. Stunning scenery. Heres a picture of management with Blue Bike from our trip up there last year.

Getting my wife to 'censor' my posts would be the quickest way of getting barred! She's from Liverpool ffs!!!
Let me demonstrate: only click on this link if no minors are within ear-shot.

Enjoy the ride Peter! BTW, physically and posture-wise your management bears a remarkable resemblance to mine

You are welcome Andy.

How to best get paint in to the cracks Trying different options.

[Leon]

That looks like a great option Peter!

[k1w1]

Progressing with this slowly. Currently getting the bones partially buried.

[dierk]

Nice!
Are you going to add more sand to the bottom edges to show a build-up on the side facing the prevailing wind direction?

[Leon]

Looking good Peter!

[jsteinman]

dem bones...

Yes - in the second photo the brown stuff is Vallejo dirt paste and I am slowly building it up.

[k1w1]

Finally some progress. Just poured the green tinted resin in to The Bog of Eternal Stench. Base now finished.

[dierk]

Very cool!

[Leon]

That looks really cool Peter!

Smack that baby, make him pee!

[Prop Duster]

Well Just WOW (I'm a fount of eloquent elocution-don't ya know) Great start. don't worry too much about the size differing between the parts. This is after all a non-earth planet in a galaxy far, far, away 😋

The air dry clay looks to be a winning component for the ground.

(humm if it's an air dry clay wonder what happens when it rains---Oh well just have to stay tuned and see how it goes)

Thanks Bill.  Nice to see you back at this one - I never left it. Have been working away at it for 5 months. Progress has been so slow. But have learnt a lot.

CP30 with his new helmet about to go riding.

[Leon]

LOL.....That is way to cool Peter! I love it.

Hey, MS spell check keeps wanting to change my name to 'dire'

[wbill76]

He definitely looks right at home with that bike...maybe it's his 'alter ego' CP30 that he uses when he's 'on the road'?

[k1w1]

Weathering gold people is not so easy but I think I got there in the end. Using a small bit of sponge I painted on 2 lighter colours then some Tamiya Brown and Dark Brown Panel Line Wash.

[wbill76]

Nice touch on the 'silver' leg too! Metallics are always hard to weather...especially since they are designed to be 'shiny'!
