King Cobra


This very sad looking RAFM King Cobra came up on eBay at a keen price, that forced me to acquire it. Okay, maybe forced is over-egging it, but it's King Cobra, and I don't have one.

Missing one arm, which is a problem that means either finding a spare, or making a replacement.

I don't know what I'll do yet. Anyway, the first thing to do is throw it in some Nitromors and strip all the gunk off it. Happy, happy.

Catch you all on the bounce.

    WHO DOESNT WANT ONE!
    Good for you Ashley - glad you got it at a good price. Nothing that Mankind has applied cannot be removed I say!
    If you go you magnetise limb rout again, maybe you could do an interim damaged arm for a cool effect

    1. Yep, got to catch them all.

      Great idea for a damaged arm too.

    1. Me too. Currently I'm painting SJG Ogre building, which has taken me longer to do than I planned due to spending more time writing my next novel.
