I am convinced that models look much better in black and white, so having finally realised that I can use Paint like I used to use Photo Editor, I gave it a go.
Here is Tony Moss's office so treated.
And the motorbike shop, now sharpened a little and B&W'd.
Iain, the doors are now even worse! This was over 20 years ago. He has now closed the garage because of EU rules about petrol tanks and also because even in the sleepy village of Upwell, he has suffered an amazing degree of vandalism and theft, so is now redeveloping the site, but he still does repairs in the workshop and works in the office, despite the fact that the soldier course of bricks over the window is completely fallen down and out!
I live in Eastern England with my wife and two mad dogs.
I amuse myself making models, painting and writing.
I am "of a certain age", which means of course that the spirit is forever young and free, but the joints are not always so willing, but I haven't ruled out Glastonbury just yet! All they have to do is improve the music and make it free to get in again and we'll be there.
I dislike pettyfogging rulemakers, lickspittles and toadies, laziness of both body AND mind, slubberdegullions and tatterdemalion flibbertigibetts, modern cars generally, ALL Japanese motorcycles and gin-palace boats.
I LOVE estuaries, sheds, old aeroplanes of the sporting type, vintage cars, British motorcycles, wooden boats and progressive rock music, not necessarily in that order.
I'm ambivalent about politics, managers, modern art and most people.
I like quiet, remote places where I can imagine the modern world has not yet made an impact (a hopeless task!)
Tony Moss's office looks great. I love the doors, particularly. Yes, I agree, I love the old black and white treatment.
