I've been adding on the concrete walls to the inner pits, There printed papers from
Kirtley model buildings. I need to weather the tops now o blend it in.

I've edited the pic so it should be the right way up. It never usually matters which way round I have the iPad when I use the camera it just rights it self.

Try again... the last three pics are upside down on my screen!!

I gather from posts 'over there' that although the iPad 'rights' the picture for itself, there's still a 'correct' way up to takes photos that will load right-way-up on other devices.

That's strange I've taken pictures all ways with the iPad and never had issues on here and over there. There the right way up in the thumbnail before I post.
I wonder if the mods could turn them around. If not I will retake the pictures with my camera.

My daughters bought me a mikes model water crane for Father's Day so after construction I glued it in place. I've added some sand and talc around it. Once dry I will spray it all black and start to brush the weathering powders in.

Now after a coat of paint. You can see the talc has dried with a smooth finish. Powders now to give the Ash look.

86C is coming on a treat Steve, the crud around the yard looks very convincing.

My other half goes mad if I have been for a look around the MPD at Ropley on the Watercress line, as our cream carpets suddenly take on a different hue .

Next time I'm up there I will scrape off my shoes and send you the soot and ash in a plastic bag if you like .

ATB,

Martyn.
