This is the model almost completely reassembled, with the tail installed. When building this model I worried that it might be tail-heavy. Thanks to the weight of the battery box and me being able to mount the motor for the tilting mechanism relatively far forward, it's actually stable. And there's even room for a minifig pilot in the cockpit. The real aircraft carrier two crew members, but the width of minifigures means that on this scale (1/40), chosen such that the model looks OK with the figures standing next to it, there's not enough space inside. The single figure does sit off-centre though, to suggest that there is space for a second figure.
A removable panel just behind the cockpit provides access to the on/off switch of the Bluetooth controller.

There's been a lot of interest in this piece lately, so I thought I'd show where I'm at with it currently. About 200 hours so far, a little more than 50% finished.
These are samples for a Book Arts exhibition which is due to take place next Spring in Attingham Park, a National Trust property
Back to working on this neglected dreamy boy...can you tell I still don't really like his left side?
this was a sample I had made with Spoonflower, the quality wasn't so great so I stitched on top of it....
Progress on a WIP that's actually been sitting around for a while. Don't worry, I'm working on my next BioCup2018 entry too!

I was given a sheet of magazine scraps which had been applied to a background in a haphazard manner and was asked to use this as a source of inspiration!
I find this sort of challenge VERY difficult as I usually work to an idea, not an image.
After a mild panic I decided to gesso the whole page in an attempt to tone down the images and then I used it to create a folder which I then die cut and embossed.
I then grabbed the scrap bag and started to machine embroider images which started to leap from the page.
This is one sample.
One of my favourite flowers. The bright overcast light, wide aperture and ultra long focal length all contribute to the slightly painterly look.
