First Sirocco!

[fingwe]

Hi everyone, received the new Sirocco kit in the post today, so I've quickly made it up. It's a lovely kit, goes together very nicely. I hope you like it.

Yikes Melanie, you're quicker then me, although I have had mine out of the packet! The black chrome looks so nice eh, like the blue combo you've got going on there. I've changed my mind on the material I was going to use as it wasn't black enough! Now to select a new coat for it tomorrow.

Thanks Greg, I'm not saying I'm competitive, but if I hadn't had to go out this afternoon and evening, I'd have had it finished and posted by 5pm :wink:

Don't shy away from a light coloured blank...I've done black kits before with lighter coloured blanks and they still look great...I just thought I'd do something which was kind of the opposite to the one Phil showed.

 

[GSteer]

Oh, it had some colour variation, but the black bits just didn't match.

Hit the nail on the head Melanie with the colour and perfect IMHO shape.

Wow that's very nice Melanie, It's inspired me to order some Scirocco's now rather than wait a while

 

[flexi]

Very nice there.....now where are mine Phil

 

[Phil Dart]

Well, you certainly don't let the grass grow do you Mel? Beautifully done.

Great looking pen Melanie.
I hope the coat I choose comes as looking as good as yours.
Phil, as FLEXI, where are mine

That is a nice looking pen Melanie, well done with that. I'm still waiting for my shipment to arrive.

 

[fingwe]

Thanks everyone. Can't wait to see a few more showing up on the forum!

 

[Morse]

Gotta receive them first

Phil must have been overwhelmed with the orders.

 

[fingwe]

Yes, he doesn't seem to have been online much, so hopefully he's fighting his way through a mountainload of pen kits.

 

[Terry]

Excellent combination !!!

 

[Unique]

It's a beauty Melanie.
I'm avidly awaiting my kits to arrive - have already picked out a few possibilities for the body.

Well done.
