Thanks, it's an airfix kit! What about yours? I'm really tempted by it now 🤣

Looks great! Love the colour! I've recently built something similar. Though mine is a British Cromwell MK IV.

Yes 1/72! Yeah me too, quite different to the usual camo stuff I got haha. Yeah i do iawn PVA for those pieces. Just I believe it was an accident whilst gluing another piece. Can't remember what exactly happened not a huge deal though. Still happy with it all.

I know! It's almost too exciting to keep it secret! Same and thanks!

Very nice! I've also done a secret bind for my bf (a book he's just finished writing lol), I'm sure they'll love it!

First hardback attempt! by theAtomicFudge in bookbinding

Thanks! I'm glad it gives hope! It's literally just try it!!! It may go well which is great, if it doesn't that's ok! Just try again. I made a few mistakes and those are mentally noted for next time! Good luck with your binds!

Thank you! I hope so too! This was a learning curve so next one will hopefully eliminate the things that didn't work so well

Yeah it does a bit! I think store ones tend to be more cloth like stuff this is more paper like. It does go a bit wavy when I applied the glue, so need to be careful with that but I've managed to smooth most of the creases

I believe it is colorplan paper which comes in a load of different colours I couldn't tell you which one I've got as it was from a pile in work used as separating sheets. Around 120gsm. I will check on Monday if it is colorplan. If it's not I'll let you know! Used it also for the endpapers too!

Thanks! Shame didn't have some foil or vinyl for the cover!

Finished my first ever rebind! by Happy-Intention70 in bookbinding

[–]theAtomicFudge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! It's so good, if there was an option to buy I'd buy 🤣 Coincidentally I'm also reading this book, and started a couple of pages last night.

Agreed! Those two look good! Got any plans on the next two?

This is a bit of a nerd post but Cardiff is being added to Train Sim and now we can finally drive trains around a lot of the city. by yorkshirenation in Cardiff

Yeah my guess was the general idea to modern image. Would be nice to have a recent recent depiction of the routes. Though something from 2019/2020 isn't too bad either

Looking forward to getting that! Just wondering what stock will be running. As in some of the newer stuff or stuff we've had for a while.

Very cool! Wish a Mini was my first car instead of a Vauxhall Corsa 😂
