My better half got me this for valentines day [ATTACH]77185[/ATTACH][ATTACH]77186[/ATTACH]Not a very detailed kit but the only one I could get and it will fit in nicely with my British Cold War jets collection

Kit also comes with a tanker and engineering crew so a little dio will be on the cards for this ,

Nice looking kit Al, should make up into a super plane and on a sit alone or dio board will look tops.

Thanks mate unfortunatly this is a lindburg kit so is about as detailed as a paper aeroplane lol, it has raised panel lines , no breaker between the intakes , figures have more flash than david beckham and the tanker looks like a poundland special lol , but i will present it well and do a bit of scratching to improve it

[eddiesolo]

Can you score the panel lines or is that beyond this kit? I am sure you will get it looking superb, one way or the other-if you can get that pig of a build you made looking great then this should be a piece of cake.

Im not too happy trying to score the panel lines and tbh they are not that big so i was thinking of just adding a little wash not very dark and dry brushing them ever so slightly so you can faintly see a bit of detail or ill just dry brush without the wash

That's a good haul Peter, particularly at that price

Got this recently on eBay, I've been on the lookout for one at a reasonable price for a while.

Another unusual scooter kit, this one a resin item from PlusModel. I like the look of the black and yellow checked version...

Never heard of or seen one of these before, look forward to seeing it built eventually.

Despite my own rules (ha!, how easily my rubber arm twists), I picked up a few new ones myself a while back. Too lazy to post pictures of the catch, but will show them "mounted". I got bit by the U-boat bug, so I got 2 of them (and eyeballing a 3rd).

One, a 144 scale type 2 (U23) by revell but seems to be a reboxing of an ICM kit, as the main sprue is stamped as such.

the other, a 125 scale type 7 (U99) also by revell, but seems to be an original from 1976. Odd feel to the plastic, lots of flash.

They're primed and ready but I've noticed I've turned into 'that guy'. The one who starts but doesn't quite finish before moving on to the next one. As a result I have taken some "stay-cation" time in march to get caught up. (Amongst other reasons).

My sunken sub is the Revell U99, that was a newish issue and pretty flash free. I have told that the 70's versions have a greasy or waxy feel to them. Should make into some superb models Steve.
