yep, you could say that again!

Lighting..

 

Norway has had a record breaking hot summer this year, and has been constant sun for over a week with NO clouds. Woods caught fire too. Hottest summer in Norway since the 70's.

 

Well, as my profile says, I live in Kristiansund, which is a little south in middle Norway.  But now I'm at my dad who lives in Larvik, just south of the capital Oslo. So I'm pretty south, where it's even hotter.

Anyways, after this recordbreaking summerstart, Oslo got hell. Early in the morning yesterday, all dry and sunny. A little later, TWO THOUSAND (2000) registered lightingstrokes in ONE hour... Resulting in ALOT of rain:

 Imagine being almost dried out, and driving trough that at the same day....  But as you see, they got a little sun afterwards.

As I slept tonight, I could hear lots of thunder in the distance.. Ahh, awsomeness...! 

 

 

 

ANYWAYS....  I'll get home by August, and will start the GB then.. wait.. What's the end date?

I just started a Kubelwagen.. Depending on the end date, I may just enter it? 

man, any skills you lack in photography you make up for in figure painting skills, those are awesome!!

Thanks, Jim.

Wow! Awesome! I'm painting 2 Sherman Tankers as we speak (BTW, A Dragon E8 Sherman 1/35th is my build now. Changed it) and they're mediocre at best. I'll update this as soon as possible, I'm just really busy actually building the tank (a fair is coming up very soon) and I only have 1/4 of the tracks assembled, much less painted! All newcomers, welcome aboard!

looks like an interesting subject to model Huxy!

Arighty. I've now decided that I am going to incinerate the Airfix Stuka cause its driving me mental. Also I kinda went on a shopping spree today and picked up abunch of stuff from the LHS which I want to build for this GB. Possible dio with the tank crews and the panther. Also 1/35th Bronco Sdkfz 221

Well thats all the photo's I've taken today. But I guarantee that I will have some new kits tommorow (I forgot some paints that i bought at the store and i didn't buy everything I wanted so yeah.)

 

Thanks for reading

Alex

That's ok, Huxy. Again, I'll update the roster. Fair setup is the 11th... After that, I'll update this GB. I'm very sorry about all this, guys.

No worries Alex.. We're all here pretty new, and we miss stuff easily..

But how many times have I seen a profesionally built model, built for a client with such errors? Well, pretty often..

Just go slow, check every piece before glying it.. After you've cleaned it, check it again to be sure.

And please, give me a closeup of that camera! And tell me how the Academy figures are.. I can't imagine Academy is good at figgies? 

 

Graham: No worries about being a little late..  We can wait for something that want halt our modeling... However, the workbench wont wait for anything..!  

 

-Lasse (And thanks for letting me in with my Kübelwagen! I get pictures up...)

Wow Brian, that is amazing work you've got there!! ground work looks great and the figures are flawless!


Looking forward to more on the ship, Jim.
