The Little World

Because, because…

a. It isn’t done that way.

b. It isn’t done.

c. I can’t do it.

And there we have it, children. The gatekeeper, scale model authority, icon, legend, club ‘rak who would bar you from carving your own Spitfire from a bar of laundry soap has spoken. You must obey.

Or…

You salute the authority figure ( number of fingers optional ), catch up the knife and the block of Ivory and whittle out a Mk IX with rocket rails under the wings.

The Truth Of The Universe is you do not know what you can do – and neither does anyone else. You’ll only find out by trying. In scale modelling the trials are both fun and economical, and the verdict is always uncertain.

Go on…go deaf…go do it anyway.
