Nice one Pete - I’ve been using one of the original Olfa versions since the late 80’s. Excellent plastic cutters

Hi Simon strange you mention Olfa I thought I'd check if the spare blades were in the handle and guess who there made by yes you got it Olfa.

Hi all

So you may remember from my last influx that I had ordered some 2mm vinyl letters and they duly arrived at work today and they look quite nice.

Stupidly over-sized picture below in the hope you can make them out!

Good evening chaps,
Was lucky enough to get some pennies for Christmas :smiling4:
So took a trip to the local model train shop....which I’m pleased to say have now got a lovely range of Tamiya stuff on the shelves and not badly priced either.

Im going to have a go at a 1:48 dio for the Bf109. Not sure of all the details yet, so picked up some bits for inspiration...

Well i have had the present of a modelling lifetime. A very kind person whom i have been conversing with for a while now sent me a package for free for xmas.

Kits, aftermarket and books. There are still two more kits to arrive as they were to big for the box. I'll not go into all the bits and bobs but suffice to say the gentleman in question has made a grown man (me) weep like a baby. Humbled is an understatement. His generosity has totally overwhelmed me.

Looks like Santa took advantage of the Revell sale at Hobbycraft :smiling5:

Itching to start the Tamiya as I've heard it's a brilliantly engineered kit, but since I haven't done a plane for a while I'll probably practice with the Beaufighter.

First things first though - trawling through the instructions and interwebs to work out what paints I need to order!

Hi all So no kits for Christmas but I do have plenty in the stash and in any case it wasn't a model free Christmas asI did get the below from my family. The book is about the battle against the U-Boat Wolf Packs (about which I know very little) and specifically the Western Approaches Tactical Unit (about which I know nothing). The paints speak for themselves. ATB Andrew [ATTACH]367798[/ATTACH]
