Purply!

Had to de-pink it a bit as it turns out it was a darker more purply shade back in the day. The lettering still to do but fleshed out nicely I think

Pinky!

Easter Monday so well into it! rear end, engine and airscoop nearly done.
Off to play some Magic card game now so maybe a tad more later.

and Matinee Idle on the radio too!!

Pink!

Just a bit on the nose! which could sum up the working week as well! lol. Been cataloguing Magic cards and havn't been keeping up the drawing, but Easter draws near so here's hoping the Begg gets lots of attention.

Tons of sales this week, hard to keep up with the wrapping actually but I guess that's really good! AND an original sold too! Plus 3 more calendars.. what can I say.. coff!

McCully Begg FM5 started

s\Ive been asked to do Alan McCullys pink Begg FM5 from the day so after a scout around for pics Ive started this one.. wheels away first..

wait till you see the pink!

Achilles launched

finished the Achilles... well almost finished... just need to colour the air recognition banner on the B turret.. This shows it slightly pre WW2 actually!
1 sale already so thats cool...

HMNZS Achilles

been a couple of weeks since I last posted here. Decided to start a couple of commissions. First off the block is the HMNZS Achilles, possibly the most famous NZ warship of WW2 and a nice complement to my previous Gambia. Should be quite quick as its basically grey although the sea will need some colour. Coming along quite quickly tho..

Went and saw Sole Mio last thursday. Not my sort of music but you have to respect the power and control of those 3 lads. They will be big internationally soon I think. Obviously the Stones is off till November but that does let me go to a local model meet next weekend so its all good.

The Croz is racing!

finished the picture, worried over whether to do a background or not.. eventually decided not and loaded it into trademe. Bugger me if 2 didnt sell within a day! So all good.
Started sketdhing out the Achilles warship to complement the Gambia and also the McCully F5000 commission. Two at once, I must be mad! wife been away for 3 weeks so batching a bit.. was looking forward to seeing the Stones in April but thats postponed now.. never mind..

anyway, heres the finished Crosby Suzuki XR69.
