    How about building a coffee table with a mirror shelf and sides and a glass top, with the built model encased inside?  A nice feature in your lounge...
    Funny you should say that, I have had the very same idea....

      It may not fit in your spray booth, but just think what it would be to paint by brush, but that is going to be one impressive monster when done.

        Got this today a treat for myself well worth the early call outs and hopefully a worthy replacement for my defunct iwata unit and a few extra quid for the brush always worth having a backup .

            Just got this, will modify it for my 1/32 Trumpeter Bf 109G-2 Gunther Rall build. Will exclude the G-6 bits and add the G-2 bits. I also plan to open the bottom cowling as well, using the kit parts and scratchbuilding the rest, so I get a full 360 degrees open engine. This resin engine really is a beast, but very expensive.

                don't worry, 90% will be visible once it is built with the 1/32 Trumpeter Bf 109 G-2

                    As a treat to myself for finally finding a full-time job after more than a year of looking, I landed a bit of an eBay bargain - £20 off list price (if you can find one!)





                    Now I'm waiting impatiently for the MyHermes driver...roll on next week!

                      The good lady has finally got fed up with the table top workstation so she has bought me this so I can keep everything in one place so a few minor repairs and I can give it a test drive hopefully it means I can build more models  9_9

                          Thanks Moni, this kit is fairly simple to build as I understand, but it's a big one! Bigger than a Jagdtiger... yikes!

                                Although this isn't a kit I got this from a model railway show today to use as a corner filler for a diorama idea I have. These were used for a specific type of aircraft support so I'll leave it to you lot to try and figure it out.
