or is it beauty is the devil?
Hmmm, you might just be right there Vance. I read that line then glanced across at your banner. Certainly something devilish going on there mate !!

there is a saying my father had: "beauty is in the details"
The architect van der Rohe was once credited with saying that "God is in the details". After seeing some of the builds around here, I think he was right.

-well, my father use to said that "the devil is in the details"-
I think that it depends, if you are talking about a contract, it would be in the details, in this case finishing those details is where the devils is. beauty of course, is another thing; a beautiful woman...boy, are we talking troubles?

Despite a late push I was unable to get my F-15J finished, it cracking apart several times didn't help
Its sat here now undergoing its 2nd round of PSR since the last repair....

I've just realised, I didn't get a ribbon for this campaign. My P-47 pic was posted in the gallery. Was there something else I needed to do?
thanks

I have a 1/32 Hasegawa Spitfire Mk. VI on the way. I'm sure I can hold off on it, until this campaign starts. Just spend my spare cash on detail parts for it.
