Well, I would have had some pictures of the decals on but....
Last night approximately 2145 local time, my wife gives me the go ahead to model. Priorities are as follows:
- Gloss coat the egg Tiger for decals.
- Make first attempt at creating Friuhl tracks.
So there I was, at the spray booth in the garage (garage is attached to kitchen through a door.) I'm happily getting the spray booth going, setting correct PSI and getting some Alclad II Aqua Gloss set up. Started to spray the hull of the Tiger and hear. "AHHHHHH, AHHHHH, WHAT THE fudge!" Accompanied by the crashing and breaking of multiple plates, pots, pans, etc.
"Well this is odd" I thought to myself. So I sat the airbrush in its holder and went to the kitchen. The wife yells, "Don't come in here, there's broken plates" to which I reply "I'm wearing combat boots, it'll be fine." (I always wear boots/shoes in the garage.) Wife was clearly freaking out.
I'm greeted by a path of destruction only Godzilla could rival, of broken plates and silver wear thrown everywhere.
The wife was trying to calm herself down from a near panic attack and holding the dog. The poor dog (a Golden Retriever named Goose) was looking very sorry/ashamed/scared.
Evidently, when the wife was putting plates in the dish washer, the dog came up to lick some of the steak juices off of the plates. Her collar somehow got stuck on the bottom rack. So when the wife shooed the dog away, it ran off with the entire rack in tow.
According to wife, "There were plates breaking everywhere, and knives flying through the air at me and the dog!"
After a quick survey, I noticed no blood. (Besides, I have a lot of medical supplies, quikclot, tourniquets, first aid, etc. in the house in case of egregious emergency.)
This was one of those marriage defining moments. Laugh out loud; or, somehow hold it in. The first option you will hear about for the rest of your life.
Fortunately I was able to hold it in long enough to inspect the dog for cuts. She's a Golden Retriever so, checking her all out was a bit of a task. She checked okay, and I got to have a good chuckle.
Then I was made to buy new plates.
Nice start and looking good
