Hi fellas
Thanks for all the very kind remarks, the work you guys do I think outstrips mine by miles! My little monkey drives it around the front room with "rubble" in the commanders hatch, if your in the know your get the reference

i managed to bigger up the ibu2 in it last summer when we were playing with it in the garden, and i never got round to fixing it, and unluckily enough at the end of Jan she got an antibiotic resistant UTI and was in hospital seriously unwell for 4 days, and all she kept asking was to fix her KV tank for her, so I thought I'd better do it right!, and the inspiration and advice I get on this forum is just excellent!!.

Superb!

The colours really have depth and luminosity, giving a convincing impression of weathered painted metal....only, and I hope you don't mind.. can I suggest that you turn your pics through 90deg to spare a few strained necks, with further updates!

I had a problem with the photos too, but discovered if you click on them, the enlarged version is correctly orientated.
