A monster planet that devours everything in its path!

Mrs. M, my deepest condolences. I haven't followed this thread for so long and have not even been reading other threads lately so I was shocked by this terrible news. He seemed to be a very joyful and generous soul. His vast talents will surely be missed in the community.
 
I guarantee if this were shown at Botcon it would have gotten so much praise and probably won the customizing contest for sure.
 
His Optimus Prime build , is off the charts.....no one could have pulled that off the way he did, he has made History , with all of his , Transformers G1 builds, a master and an artist with the most essentric detail and design, his work was pure essence in every way
 
Thank you all for you kind messages. Yes, Colins work was just amazing. He got so much joy from his modelling work, often sitting for hours sanding, gluing, spraying etc. He was so very proud of all his work ( and rightly so ).

Colin was always looking about for "useful" objects he could use in his builds, and would often "borrow" things from the house just so he could finish a certain part before he went to bed. One day I noticed 2 screws missing from a door handle and on questioning him about it, he looked at me very sheepishly & said " No darling, I haven't touched them" The slight grin on his face gave the game away lol. The very next afternoon, after his trip to town, the door handle mysteriously had all it's screws back. I teased him about that all the time, but it was just so typical of Colin " The Borrower". We would have many giggles over his "borrowing" - lovely memories :)

I have the model of Unicron sitting on my bedside table, & each night I recall him sitting at the table very carefully placing the parts just right. I miss him so very very much. He was such a caring, generous, funny & romantic man. He was so very brave when diagnosed with cancer and all through his treatment & its horrendous side effects. I feel truly blessed he chose me to spend his life with, I just wish with all my heart we had many years more than we did together :(

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. Even though I don't know either of you personally I was moved to tears reading this thread. We often forget how fragile life is. Again, words cannot describe how sorry I am for your loss.
 
I'm incredibly sorry to hear that Colin passed. His work was incredible and he was a lovely bloke to talk to. He'll be missed by us all. :(
 
SO bloody sorry to hear this, our condolences. He was quite the artist.
I myself have a habit of nabbing sundry household items for my projects, to the chagrin of my wife.
His Transformer work was phenomenal.!
Our hearts are with you,

Col
 
This is the saddest way possible to discover a fellow member's work and I am so very sorry to hear of your devastating loss....I am sure that you are in the thoughts of everyone here on the RPF....
 
Mrs M,

Colin was a very talented artist as evidenced by the work he chose to share with us all, and I'm sure that he was equally wonderful to know in real life. My sincere condolences to you and your families for his untimely loss and thank you for making the effort to let this community know.

Sincerely,

Terry
