Next.   Something of your choice that was 'in the beginning'.   The beginning of whatever.

 

The beginning of the Hulett ore unloaders:

Finished but unpainted:

Now to get motivated on this ore boat!

Rich,

I have a severe case of computeritius.  Just my presence messes up the banks computer stuff.  Tonight my wife tried to show me  picture on her phone. it kept flipping over.  Usually when I try to look at a picture on one of them the screen goes blank.  I was behind the door when they passed out computer knowledge and I'm still there.  I don't do enough, often enough, to get it into my head how to do something and keep it there.

Must admit I do more than I used to.

Richard

 

ahh, yes, computeritis. My sympathies. Hope you are eventually able to post photos.

OK, I didn't really make it. It is a resin cast structure by JR Miniatures. I did paint it.
