    Indeed Tony. I'll be looking at aftermarket decal sets next week and hopefully get a full colour painting guide to go with them.... Nick

    what are you watching ?

    I really enjoyed Blue Lights. If I watch cycling, it's usually too look at the scenery. Out of the Dutton series, I most enjoyed the 1883 prequel.... Dare say I'll be watching House of the Dragon once we get home. Nick

    what are you watching ?

    I usually keep aside a few tins of slow drying paint to watch instead.... Nick

    AS 42 Sahraiana

    I think she looks great Scottie, but I guess you are setting your own bar higher than ever.... Nick.

    Its too flipping Hot!

    Thinking of @kacitgirl today..... Bit hot for motorcycling, have taken to dunking the base layers in a sink of cold water and putting them back on wet.... Nick

    I do love a road trip, and this is how I will be spending the next couple of weeks after the wife said she fancied going somewhere different this year..... Can't wait. Nick

    Brian's Caldercraft 1/72 HMS Victory

    Brian, all I can do is add to the plaudits you have already deservedly received. An amazing test of skill and patience with a beautiful outcome. Nick.

    Nick's Airfix 1/72 F14A Tomcat - Geoffers US Icons Group Build

    Not huge progress, but with a couple of other builds reaching the point where progress needs to be more measured, and the hot weather sending me looking for things to do where I can keep relatively cool, here's where I'm at... Wings and vertical stabilisers are made up of two parts with one of...

    Nick's Airfix 1/72 F14A Tomcat - Geoffers US Icons Group Build

    Well, here are the photos I couldn't add to the original post. Transparencies..... the stand will come in handy! Decals. These will be getting replaced. Haven't decided on the scheme yet, but there appear to be a myriad options out there..... These are the kit schemes. Seems amazing now...

    Nick's Airfix 1/72 F14A Tomcat - Geoffers US Icons Group Build

    I hadn't expected to start this for the next couple of weeks, but with this hot weather, my model room is the coolest place in the house! And my workshop where the airbrushing goes on is second coolest. I can't imagine there's anyone on here that hasn't heard of the F14 or seen the 'iconic'...

    Nick's Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XIV.

    Managed to get the rest of the decals on and a clear-coat over the top ready for the next stages. This is as far as she'll get for a couple of weeks or so as the wife and I are off on our Euro road trip. That will give the gloss clear plenty of time to cure. Thanks for looking in and staying...

    Revell 1/48 De Haviland Mosquito B Mk.IV

    You've certainly done better than me with this kit Steve. I got so fed up with my attempt that it ended up as my paint mule. Well done I think. Nick

    Tamiya SAS jeep 1/35

    Really like what you're doing with this one Tony. Do you think the experience will lead to more vehicle builds? Nick
