[Vic Balshaw]

Thank you gentlemen and thanks for the warning Pete, I'm hoping after having printed ad treated the decals today, all will go well tomorrow......fingers crossed.

Karl, thanks for the PM, I've just sent you an email.

Latest update..............Almost finished, though even with making my own decals, I've still a bit of a decal problem. I think I have gone as far as I can go with the kit but I still feel something is missing and am now contemplating the possibility of adding a bit of a grass base and some little people, sort of trying to bring it to life................so I'm going to think on it while I get on with the other entry and if time permits.............well you never know.

Joining all here. Nice work Vic.

Ok, so between playing with the ugly duckling (Roc) I've also been creating some little people for the Spit.

Here's a little preview.

I must say that the folks (ICM) are very well moulded and the Vanguard ute (Tamiya) is fitting together like a glove. A joy to work with.
