Proud to be in such select company :notworthy

I got absolutely ZERO of that thing .... sad ... very sad....

Right, time for an update - started doing the water. Things have more or less settled with us moving back to Sydney, work is a bit less crazy, so, time to make a start. Few words around this - the shiny stuff is aluminium foil, the kitchen thing, from the supermarket. I will be using Celluclay...

Nice one mate fun to watch this build :good: Laurence

I think posing and making all figures fall in place in a way that makes sense and absorbs the viewer is at least as difficult as painting them. If you ask me, that is way harder to achieve than painting figures to perfection. Wonderful stuff Bob :tens: Laurence

Sad thing is that slamming other people makes them less miserable, if not happy. Other than that, I agree, MA is an awesome bunch. Personally, I joined to learn a thing or two about models and I stayed on because of how supportive and encouraging this lot is. Time at the bench isn't always...

Well, that is the best news I have heard in a while, thank you Bob :notworthy And one of the Arizona - a cow of a kit .....bought it at Pearl, on our honeymoon. Hope this brings back some good memories :bigrin: Laurence

Same here, believe you me. That water needs to be sorted out still ... any news on that pesky email provider of yours ? Laurence

Great photos there Bob, I am a fan of those things looking like a very busy public transport vehicle with big guns on them :bigrin:. I think you're right, the second one, they look Australian to me too - crazy bunch, the lot of 'em. Laurence

I am watching quietly from the sidelines - these stories are a great read and photos make them so much better. A friendly greeting to Lewis from the land of Oz from me and a big thank you for putting this together Bob - it's awesome. :notworthy Laurence

Yeah ....Naah. If by settling in you mean upsetting people who have done nothing and don't listen, then yep, I am the champion of that. The home bit is going very slowly, but it's ours and that makes all the difference in the world. As for this thread, of course I like it - you can see I am...

Hi everyone, Bit of an update - over the past few weeks, work has been absolutely mentally deranged - Monday to Sunday. No time to do anything else, not even unpacking stuff from a garage full of boxes. I have been learning a lot while doing the stuff I love doing. That's the only positive...

Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing :tens:. Laurence

Thanks Mike.

It is spectacular in places, especially around the Opera House and all. We live a bit to the West of those landmarks, the suburb is nice and we have everything close by. I still wish Canberra loved me back though, I found that place closer to what I want than Sydney.

Thanks Bob. I am taking this as another lesson in patience - other priorities that I need to focus on. I should have seen this coming, but I kept wanting to live in Canberra, ignoring the realities around me. I am still not sure what the water should look like - plowing through a massive wave...

Inspection time .... box and lid - probably around 25 kg - 50 pounds or so. Bit blurry but it all looks in good order - at least for now, without having had a closer look. One day I will start working on the water ... until then it's work - study - exam and more work. Life is good. Laurence

Greetings all, glad to be able to finally post something here. As of the 17th of Dec last year, we are back in Sydney. Our own place. Story is long and stupid, but we managed to get in here in the nick of time, interstate border closed 48 hours after we moved back, due to the pandemic. The...

That's a crowd :tens: Laurence

One month on, bit of an update - we are moving back to Sydney, to our own place, no more dodgy and unprofessional real estate agents to deal with. THAT is massive. On the flip side, many many curved balls thrown at us, but that's life. Truck arrives to pick up our stuff on Thursday morning, then...
