What i have been upto during lockdowns

So I decided to build some model tanks.
Never done any since I was a kid and the detail was amazing.
I then thought I would try a bit of airbrush and got a small booth and airbrush
Really enjoyed this during the first lockdown.
Then as some of you know I lost my dad 3 weeks ago and whilst going through pics and remembering he drove tank transporter during his time in the army.
I now have got and started to build the truck he drove.
Really wish I've done this when he was here.
Fiddly but helps

Well not done much more to the truck as been busy and unfortunately my uncle passed away also beginning  of January.

he was well into his jets and since 2008 being having a Jaguar jet restored.

it was completed last year and he was able to see it do an afterburner run and is the only running one in the world so a great legacy to leave.

it is at bentwaters Cold War museum

so now I have another model to build

Just found this thread.

Sorry to hear about your dad mate.

Love your scale tanks. Great work. Can appreciate all the effort thats gone into them, as I'm a bit of a scale modeller myself. (see pic)

Sorry to hear about your uncle passed away too. That Jag must sound awesome. Would be great for you to honour him with a scale model of his jet.

All hail his return, the messiah of saucy sketches and discoverer of the Boot Release. 👐
