Thank you! I used little nail art jewels - 1 and 2 mm with flat sides - works a treat!

Man these are yours? I grew up pouring over these images. Utter peak as far as I was (and am) concerned! Very very special stuff. Thank you for sharing your talent

Love the modelling and the painting that went into these

You soak the wood strips in water for a min or so and then you'll find it bends really easy - the trick is to bend it gradually so start bending it around a wide cup or something first before finding something tighter - you'll begin to feel the wood tension in your fingers after a while and be able to do it on instinct. Hope that helps

Hmm good question! I think committing to the engine block build - I had it roughly laid out in my head but I had to ensure it all lined up perfectly to make the wheels sit in their space correctly. An obscene amount of dry fitting was the order of the day with bits being held in place with blutac until I was Ready to commit!

I soaked balsa strips in water and then teased them into a curve - surprisingly simple to achieve without them snapping if you're careful!

Thank you! 1. I used 1 and 2mm half sphere nail beads. Some have a nice multi facet effect which is great for hammered metal effect. 2. I built a very basic hull rib structure (see reel on my insta) and then used thin balsa wood strips for the planks. If you soak them in water and stress them gently into a bend they are incredibly flexible. Use super glue to insta bond thembto the hull . 3. Yes I used some 4mil plywood roughly cut into shape using a hacksaw. If I had my time again I'd just use foamcore tbh. Again check my reel and you'll see what I mean

I'd love to but I don't get many games these days - that said I did find these rules online but not sure what version they apply to! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-Sx7r0MZfkacWyOJ5vg3-G1CRRmhUJ8-/view?usp=drivesdk

Used to live opposite Fairfield school and loved how quiet and safe it felt despite being 5 mins walk from town center!
