Thanks for Looking.

Thanks Mate, downloaded the PDF version of your weathering guide so I didn't have to use my crappy memory and watched your Dio guide, two valuable resources. The photography was pure luck.Coen wrote:That's freaking awesome!!

When I first looked at your pics, I thought, that's freaking brilliant, all of it. Then I looked again and thought, the figures are my favourite bit; then I looked again, nope, the Tiger is definitely my favourite bit. After another look, I decided that the base was my favourite bit - then it dawned on me - it's all my favourite bit!!!![]()
