First build work in progress
Looks good so far - especially the paint. As far as glue goes, don't apply it straight from the yellow tube, dollop a bit on a scrap bit of cardboard or something, and apply with a cocktail stick. Also, what did you use to glue in the windows? A lot of people use a thin bead of white PVA glue...- Darian Frey

New to scale modelling!
No worries - glad to help, and as I said, don't compare your work with others :) just your own last build and expectations. As far as the window goes - let it dry and then it should just scrape off with a light rubbing with a cocktail stick. In fact that's how I paint some cockpit canopies -...- Darian Frey

BOATMANS F16 CJ with hopefully lights
An impressive amount of work Chris, with all this wiring and LEDs, it's going to look great when done, oh and there's nothing wrong with the pilot. what final scheme are you going for? I think I'll go and take a look at your Hornet build! :cool:- Darian Frey

Papa695s Zvezda 1/48 SU-25 Frogfoot
What a cracking build Ian, you're doing a great job with that so far, the cockpit and u/c looks great and I loved the glasses on the pilot - did they come with the kit? It's a great choice of subject (who doesn't love the Frogfoot) and it's really interesting to see a 1/48th Zvezda kit - I...- Darian Frey

At what point is your "stash" getting out of hand?
I start to get palpitations if mine gets over 90... it throws out my weight and balance! Seriously I've sold a load off this year, and gave some to charity, and maybe more will go in future - it's rather cathartic. If I could, I'd like to keep it at sub-20, but at the moment it's about 50...- Darian Frey

Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa
Oh I 100% agree on 1/72 Chris - I'd do the same. But as you said, on a smaller scale it looks good. I'm liking it a lot - I've not had too much time to post as I always seem to be busy, but you all seem a good bunch and there's some interesting stuff going on. (and I'll remember about the b...- Darian Frey

New to scale modelling!
Welcome to the forum and the hobby - you've come to the right place. I totally agree with all the others of said - I have drawers full of tools and paints, but even after a life time of building, 99.999999% of the time I just use the below. - on every build. OK so you might not need the...- Darian Frey

Worst /best kit you’ve built.
I'm going to throw out something controversial here... One of the best kits I've built in the spirit of 'fun and enjoyment of building' was the 2009 tooling of Airfix's Mig-15. I know, I know, the fuselage was the wrong scale and shape, and the panel lines were awful - but from a standpoint of...- Darian Frey
