Mildly? ? Happy Friday! Hakuna & all that Iris BRU - BE / CTR Fun Control

I have no clue what you are saying but the pics look great. Convinced this is going to be a wonderful plane. Keep up the good work McG! Lot(h)s of love, - Iris BRU - BE/CTR Chinese Control

Posted by McG 6969 on 03/10/2020 18:34:54: Hello again, Beside assisting the LotH with her employment issues, I went to have a go at the wing seat. I opened up the gap from wing to fuselage side following Dirks method of 'gradual' sanding back till I got an opening of 3mm. After Sellotaping the wing, I filled up the gap with a 3mm wet 'stringer', let it dry and glued it in. The Dog - of course - has very different fillets/fairings at the wing seat than the standard F-86. In fact there are less fairings along the wing seat with quite smaller ones at the TE. I guess I'll just have to sleep on it before attacking the other side... Hakuna matata & stay safe please Chris BRU -BE / CTR Seating Control The LoTH is thanking you a lot for your help I also see the lion. But then again, I see lots of things all over the place... My sound system on my desk looks like a guy staring at me with open mouth hahaha.... This being said, great job Chris! I am like Falty Towers Manuel from Barcelona: "I know nothing"... about building model planes but I know you and as usual, your approach is well thought of and worked out until the tiniest detail... I know I sometimes tease you with this 'authistic' approach as I call it, but let's face it, sometimes I wish I would be a bit more like you... Keep up the good work! Hakuna and LoT(h)s more, - Iris

Thank you for the kind wishes John. As Chris mentioned very busy with work and if not work with my hobby (drawing). Don't forget your predictions for the Russian GP... Chris, keep up the good work and if you see Gaston, say hello to him from me... I kind a miss him! Don't take it the wrong way, I am sure that what you are writing here is innovating en full of useful information, but as you know I am far from technical and I just love watching your pictures. They are even better with Gaston in it. Keep on building! Hakuna mata, Iris BRU - BE/ CTR Cheers Control

Wow... amazing Chris. And giving me a great excuse to buy some more shoes in case you need another shoebox. Glad to be of help! Keep up the great work. I don't know much about building (actually I know nothing about building) but this looks perrrrrrrrrrfect! Hakuna etcetera, Iris BRU - BE / CTR Shoebox Stock Supplier

Amazing Chris! Love, Iris

Know nothing about model building but such great detail! I love it! If I would have met you when I was a little girl, I would have asked you to make a Barbie house... Keep up the great work. Hakuna patata! Iris BRU - BE / CTR Detail Control

Posted by McG 6969 on 07/04/2020 20:27:04: Hello again, ‘Small bits duty’ part #2. I started to concentrate on the cockpit furniture and had to have a careful introspective journey into my SHD - aka the Specialty Hoarding Drawers. Great detail McG, you're the best! Please continue with great work on the cockpit furniture and after that, I have some household furniture that could also use some great work @Dwain Nice to read you are doing better now!

Shark mouth? Oh dear, that sounds scary! Keep on building Chris, you are doing great. Hakuna (and all the rest) Iris BRU - BE / CTR Cheer Control

Posted by john stones 1 on 22/12/2019 18:37:12: A4 B3 C3 D1 E2 Merry Xmas. Iris Chris Gaston. Hi John, I could say I was too busy 'stuffing the turkey' to have noticed the Xmas greetings, but I would be lying. We ate fondue because I don't like being in the kitchen the whole day. And then I was drawing. And then I realized it has been a while since I looked at Chris's blog only to find your very nice greetings. Too late now for Christmas wishes from me, but let me be the first to already wish you all the very best for the year to come! Warm regards, Iris BRU - BE / Party Control

Oh dear... there goes my 'discrete' intermezzo. Are you comparing me with the 'bucket' lady? I hope so not Richard... oops I mean Chris... Have fun building. I follow but as you know I am not as 'technical' as I would like to be and although my level of English is quite acceptable, sometimes this all sounds like Chinese to me. But love the pics! So neat, tidy and organised! Really you! So keep up the good work. Lot(h)s of love, Iris BRU - BE / CTR Organisation Control

Again a very nice and detailed build Chris And now I also know where my waffles are... Was looking for those... Anyways, now I know why you weren't hungry and don't tell me Gaston ate those... Keep up the great blog and work, Lot(h)s of love - Iris BRU - BE / CTR Waffle Control

Posted by onetenor on 25/12/2018 22:16:56: Sorry Iris I forgot you are Flemich Oops I've it now. I meant Flemish. That was a genuine mistake but left it to show even the English can get it wrong I wish my languages were as good as you'rs and Chris's English. Edited By onetenor on 25/12/2018 22:18:51 No need to apologize. I do not feel insulted and to be honest, Belgium is about the size of a pea so not easy to understand there are so many differences. To improve my English I play Scrabble in the language of Shakespeare and that helps...

Haha, that is grateful of course! Although greatful sounds really positive too! I do not like zpellingmizteaks. - cheers Iris
