What shade/type paint do you use for weathering? Do you thin it at all? It's going to look good when it's finished Mike. Keep up the good work.

Anyway LARA,s legs have been bent a bit better to fit on the mine loco,i stuck her in boiling water bent the legs then when i got the shape right under the cold tap and hey presto she ready to sit down {nice}. think thumbsup cheers mike...ann..x. OH nearly forgot ive just noticed on the 3rd to last photo the poor richard wilson look alike has been run down I DONT BELIVE IT! the poor bugger. happy

Don't want to worry you unduly Mike but.... I could have sworn I glimpsed a Traffic Warden creeping out of the undergrowth towards the Land Rover. An evil glint in his eye and muttering "Tax Disc not displayed on correct side of windscreen" !!!

You'll need to make a scaled down parking ticket to put on the windscreen!

the last traffic warden to stick a ticket was gassed by thunder knickers so i dont think another one will show?. Oh but anyway what,s to stop this being a TRICK?? the tax disc being on the wrong side to lure the next two legged ticket sticker!, so they can get his/her head blown off?!! by a right good blast!.
