Made an Airspeed Horsa Mk 1 troop-landing glider for my airborne to land in. It's an Airfix 1/72 kit. I hadn't reaised what a huge aircraft this was. I had a mental image of something much smaller. I knew they could land quite heavy equipment, such as 17pdr anti-tank guns, but I hadn't followed through on my thinking.
I got my airbrush out for the first time in years and had to remind myself what all the bits did. I hummed and hawed about fitting Normandy stripes but decided in the end to leave it as a more generic paint finish. I can always spray some on later.
Nicely executed John with a scenic setting.

Death, old age, are words without a meaning, that pass by us like the idle air which we regard not Diablo 3 Gold Sale, It takes strength to do what must be done when the work is unpleasant and uncomfortable Diablo 3 Gold, it takes strength to persist in the face of obstacles, when it would be much easier to simply give up Buy Diablo 3 Gold.
ReplyDeleteBeing happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections cheap c9 gold, don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first c9 money, I have a simple philosophy: Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches c9 gold.
