Excellent ejection seats. Miniatures? Not so much.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Very true.

Martin-Baker are a very interesting company to visit.  They are rightly proud of their heritage and equipment.

There is a wall in the entrance with the names of those saved by their seats.  It's a very big wall, the text is small and it's very full.  (The most recent ones are down by the floor!)

Looking very good (and sorry to hear about the disaster earlier in the week).

Screwed up a bit...  I was going to use AK dark green wash... but then I realised my varnish is white spirit based too :(
So had to resort to strong tone.  Seems to have worked OK.... 

Been working hard on the scenery too...  white paint everywhere.

Nearly there.  Added the lamps to the S-65 finally just a quick tidy and matt varnish.

Two Enschel Bunkers and a shed load of scenery to finish mow...

Thanks!  (the roadwheel on the mantlet covers the hakaristi!)

Yes Santa has a panzershreck!  He was given to me, I belive he was a Christmas special from somewhere, not sure where!
