Karl,
         I need a little help here, understanding what I'm looking at!  From the pictures you posted of this structure-Sewall's Foundry.  I read all the commits.  I just don't get it...   This is a newly built kit?  The roof is realistically weathered, worn to the point of lifting off.  The grass and weeds are all growed up, dirt and sand seem to be in between and with puddles of mudd.  The paint is worn and peeling and neglected, but with a working and well used hint.  The wood beams are splintered and ready to fall apart, the windows... well they're broken and falling out.  I look around the property and I see rust, grime and junk everywhere!  I feel like I'm going to need a tetanus shot.  What next?, if I go inside to get a coke or use the bathroom the floor most likely will fall in. Do I need to go on? Really this is something one might see on that old filthy f&sm layout back east...                     What's that?                        It's suppose to look like that?    Oh!?, Nevermind!!!

Karl,

You just fly through the kits like no one else. At that speed one would expect some half a..s job but no, yours turns out to be highest quality every time. Man, I want to be like you when I grow up  ;D

Hi Vilius:

Remember I'm semi retired and have lots of time to play. So I spend lots of time at the workbench. It's great fun to me.

Hi Thom:

You are right I had no idea it was you. As I said I figured it was a facetious compliment.

Thanks:

Looks great Karl. I always liked this kit and it's one of the least modeled FSM kits.
