    Nick's Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XIV.

    Thanks Gents. Yes Colin, fuselage halves glued together nicely although there's still that tricky panel in front of the cockpit to sort out.... More next week I hope. Nick

    Workbench, show us yours

    Always nice to see other people's setups. Can't remember what or how much has changed with mine since the last iteration of this type of thread. I have to split my work between the smallest bedroom for most activity and transporting stuff for airbrushing down the garden to my workshop. The...

    Nick's Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XIV.

    Made a little progress on some of the smaller and internal parts. Just about ready to start getting the airframe together. All pretty smooth so far: Thanks for looking in..... Nick

    Nick's Mini Art Tempo E400 for Geoffers Logistics Group Build

    Well, its been completed a couple of weeks outside the Group Build window, but here is my Mini Art Tempo E400. A rather quirky three-wheeled delivery truck that I have completed in the livery of Bahlsen's biscuits. I've visited Hanover a few times but have yet to seek out the Bahlsen factory...

    Nick's Mini Art 1/35 Tempo E400

    Finally summoned the enthusiasm to finish this one off. I have to say that the mojo suffered somewhat during this build. Not sure if it was the sheer fiddliness of it or something else, but it became something of an ordeal. Anyway, here are a couple of final assembly pics: Next post will...

    Carpet

    I saw a video online where a guy used that fabric elastoplast cut to size and painted. It looked really effective. Nick

    Yamaha YZF-R1 1999

    That looks really great George. I concur with your list of bits and bobs to a large degree although I have been getting some really good results lately with AK Super Chrome. I love the colour matched Zero paints too although I did have to start again once after rushing on the top coat a little...

    Steven’s 1/48 Spitfire Mk.IIa

    Looks like I just managed to get caught up with this before you've completed it. Fantastic work on the pilot, well done. Nick

    Andrew's 1/48 Airfix Spitfire XVIII (A05140)

    Following along Andrew. And as per your intro on the similarity with the Mk XIV, it looks like the plastic is the same other than the clear sprue and the omission of the weapons sprue from the one I'm building. Nick

    Nick's Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XIV.

    Thanks for your support Guys. I haven't done much, but a start has been made. First thing I did was clip the wings.... Wingtips are on the clear sprue and will be looked at in due course. Next, I cleaned up some of the bigger parts to see how she looked... Looks like some extra care and...

    Nick's Mini Art 1/35 Tempo E400

    Still creeping forward with this one....... I thought I would have a go at the wooden floors on the cab and load area. Trying to have a go at a 'worn' look.. Last look at the battery before its covered up forever. Seat base in place... Bit of work on the dash. Steering wheel will be...
