LOL
The trick is to go when you are meant to be somewhere else ... You could lose half a day just looking at decals ....

I'd sure like to pay Hannant's a visit...

Airframes · Apr 4, 2013

Maybe a ww2 aircraft Group Visit. With enough of us, a few could keep the staff busy, whilst the rest of us ....er ... ahem ... perhaps not.

Group visit to Hannants, they'd never get us out of the place……………..and we likely be banned for life……………..

Good to get the decals sorted and I also think you did a fine job with the paint.

pressures on Dave...

Sorry chaps I was distracted by a sudden burst of good weather . There was sunshine and everything .

So, I got my Lotus back on the road for a proper drive for the first time in months ( it passed its MoT ...our statutoy annual check up .. on friday ) and drove a pointless 100 miles ...
Then I was asked to help out with a photoshoot by a very pretty young lass, so did a bit of messing with cameras and lights and stuff , also for the first time in a while ..

This evening however I have done a few more touch ups and shot some matt over the results, so I will take the finished pics tomorrow or thursday evening, now its light when i get in

Well, driving around in unusual sunshine, in a Lotus, and 'helping' a pretty lady can't be bad!
What type of Lotus is it? (I won't ask about the lady!).

I know the feeling Dave. Summers are so short here that my modelling time drops off quite a bit from May to September.

I am lucky enough to have an S1 version of the Lotus Elise ... runs a breathed on engine, race spec suspension and some other nice bits , but it doesnt come out to play a lot in the winter ...

The young lady is an aspiring model and wanted some pics for a portfolio.. Rotten job and all that lol

Who would turn up a Lotus drive and a pretty lady……………………….good enough alibi for no pics!
