We are where we are 2!


We are where we are is what the people in the balloon that I spot whilst out on my bike ride this morning might have been saying. Completely at the mercy of the wind, their eventual destination somewhat of a mystery!

For the model Scania 143H the final destination is a bit of a mystery. I had a plan to repair the damage to the decals and this was to use par of the Belgium number plates included in the kit which have a red boarder around them similar to the pinstriping on the truck. By cutting the red strip I could repair the missing parts.

This is what it looked like.

I am not sure! I am in a mind to strip the cab and repaint it and then perhaps find some alternate decals. I will put it to one side and see how I feel in a day or so. Sometimes you have to accept that what you have already done has to be sacrificed in order to get something that you are really satisfied with rather than keep something that you are never really going to be happy with. Stay tuned!

On the T80 tank model, a few more parts added so after many months of being left in the box because of the issue with the tracks it is at least making progress just like the balloon I saw this morning!
