EIEIO's Model A
« on: July 07, 2013, 04:27:38 pm »
Unfortunately this car has been in a bit of a crash as it is broken in 3 or 4 places. In fact one piece is missing altogether as it disappeared up the vacuum cleaner pipe. The ply was terrible, too, because I still haven't got off my *** and gone out to get some BB ply. I actually started this a couple of weeks ago but threw it away half way through, but I dragged it out of the bin today and finished it off as a break from something else I was doing.

Thanks for the pattern, Ray. I promise to make a better job of it sometime. :)

Martin.

There's no mistaking it, so you did a swell job.

Let me know if the new pattern works out any better.

You may see a car wreck but we don't, we see a very nice car.  Well done.

when the pattern is removed no one knows how it should look, we only see how it looks, and this one looks fine to me.
