I had a hiatus from modelling for a few reasons,
1) Moved to a smaller house that had no modelling room (but the attic is under construction
)
2) My wifes health took a knock but is back on track a year later
3) I have been busy building a website for my passion - Virtual Tours of museums, of course aviation ones to start with.
My website is www.vuseum.com .
For education firstly but also to anyone who cares to pay a just a few bucks and take a look.
It's like Google Street View but with mountains of detail in narratives and images. If you can read it at the museum - you can read it at the Vuseum
Just click on an 'info' icon and have a read.
We also go inside the exhibits if they are big enough and get 360 degree images for you.
Like the snapshots below - lots of sharp edges inside that old B-25 so the public have no access into it.
The A6M2 - well that one is a confirmed participant of the Pearl Harbor raid.
It was shot down over Darwin, Australia 10 weeks later by ground fire - a .303 to the oil tank. You can see the bullet hole and the ruptured oil tank - the so-called 'smoking gun' is there to be seen.
But the best part? We donate part proceeds of every sale back to the museum - this is a world first.
We capitalise E-tourism to financially support our museum partners.
With that on the go now - I plan to pull out my Guillow's SBD and get it going over the next year or so...

Parkflyer "Heaven" a cricket oval with a baseball field at each end. No major obstacles apart from trees & a few small light towers. Dog-walkers occaisionally pass by. Mainly deserted on Saturdays. All the folks you see here are E-zoners -

Lakeflyer heaven. A "dead" lake with no wildlife...No fish, no birds & no bugs. I'm told that back in the '50s folks used to waterski here but it's silted up badly now & deepest point it is ~2 metres deep.
