My first FoG Models plaster kit with accompanying wooden boxes. I made a total hash of building it, but with a lot of epoxy and filler it came out just about OK!

Errr... It's been cooking for some time! I can't put it off much longer as I now have all the many pieces needed. I hope @Peter Hardy didn't really glue him self to his seat or else he has been there for two years!!! 🙂

ROFLOL I thank you all for your considerable forbearance 🙂 I am practising using the "hairy stick" for the figures but at the moment my donkey looks more like a German Shepard!!!

Tamiya's "Tent Set" is assembled, primed & received a base coat. The plaster barrel has been primed and had a base coat of "Natural Wood". And the "Dragons Teeth" have had a base coat & some high/low lights added.

Dave, do me a favour and count the things on your bench you should have put away because you have finished using them.

@Peter Errr that would be none! A place for everything & everything in its place 🙂 🙂 I'm calling the barrel finished as I am happy with the look. The "Dragon's Teeth" require some more weathering.

Haven't done any work for a few months as I had a bad accident and broke some bones. I have just begun work on the base for this dio. Thanks for your interest ?

Thank you for your interest and kind words. I've had the pins removed, so still a bit sore. Don't expect any rapid progress 🙂

with many things in life, and specially modelling and certianly in health, taking your time to get things done correctly, is a must if you want great results😉

My bad Andrea, I thought I read camel somewhere. A donkey that may look like a dog is still pretty impressive ... ha ha!
Looking forward to the rest of this dio
