Creativity thread

some of them a little bigger!  

They are expertly put together, kits aren't actually always that easy to achieve that (my husband had a little bi-plane and about gave up on it), but they looks really solid. It reminds me of my dad's collection of world war 2 naval ships. 

Jolly good

so couldn't be closer

well it could have been - but that would have been just too much of a coincidence!  Glad you like the photo 

best wishes :-)

We've managed to dig out when he did the flight, and it was July 2010! Brilliant photo! And exactly the right time frame -I looked it up and flying legends show was 10-11th that year, and he did it on the 16th, so couldn't be closer!

By a strange coincidence I took this photo at "flying legends" at Duxford in July 2010 Cinnabar_wing :-)

Hehe glad to learn that I'm no the only one holding on to my childhood!

Yep my wife and I are really fortunate to have those creative spaces - being creative is a great use for that "monotropic" skill.  

If you have a photo of the yellow tiger moth at Duxford, I'd love to see that, I think there were two flying that day, a grey and a yellow one, and it was the latter he went in. We have a dvd, but I'm trying to remember where the pictures would be from it, as it was 16 years ago, and it would have been an old camera most likely, certainly nothing with that clarity.

Ahh you have a white dwarf from the magazine, I did play myself back in school, but it was my brother's magazine so I didn't get the figure -at least the white metal was better than the older ones we used to get, which I'm sure might have contained lead. Probably why they always insisted models were at least undercoated! I still have a lot of mine in boxes, where as Damian has his in display cabinets in the office! 

That is some serious hacking skills to get a suitable place for using the airbrush, but must make it a lot handier to use. And an art studio in the garden sounds grand, both really good set ups for creativity!
