    Is scale modelling a cheap or expensive hobby?

    Hi Chris Sorry to confuse, the cancer isn't back but it's the 2nd time in 4 yrs. She beat it first time and we'll beat the bloody thing again! When Paul the excellent payroll officer told me about the 9yrs NI over pay, he immediately said " before you even ask, NO! You can't get it back" I...

    Is scale modelling a cheap or expensive hobby?

    Tirpitz with this and that, slow return for me

    Right, hull finally painted, not accurate colours but please remember. This a practice build, so using paint i have in stock. Some touch up needed but reasonably happy Thanks John, improving bit by it 👍

    thinking of getting this

    Bugger the cost, splash the cash lol. As John says the taxman is always ready to take a wedge of cash, certainly robbing me. Going to buy a benchvent booth when I eventually find a modelling room, if you enjoy the hobby, go for it!!

    Workbench, show us yours
