Thats top class work not many painters would do all that, they would just stick some catie in and take your cash

I know where the se2 will be going for her new coat Graeme might need to get a load more solder in tho :roll:

i'm really glad i've got Graeme to paint my calibra, seeing all the work that he's put into it is above and beyond what i thought would be done, so i know its been done right. as you said Steve most would have filled it with cataloy and took your cash.
