    Latest Acquisitions (2022)

    Hi all So picked these up at the MAFVA Nationals today. Nothing too exciting but used the money the kids gave me for Father's day. As Pete said whilst there were plenty of kit traders, there was only one doing supplies such as paint and the like, which was a shame as I was after some. The...

    Latest Acquisitions (2022)

    Hi all, So had a productive morning yesterday..... A 5-ish minute walk to my barbers. Then a three minute walk down to the local charity bookshop...... And the route home takes me past my local model shop next to the barbers. He does mostly RC stuff but there are a few bits and pieces of...

    Andrew's 2x AZ Model Bf 109 G-6 - JG300 'Wilde Sau' (The Hunters and the Hunted)

    Good morning all So these are the first two builds for my collection of 1/72 models connected in some way shape or form to the British WW2 bomber offensive, a collection I have decided to call 'The Hunters and the Hunted', for what I hope are obvious reasons. The 109 is of course primarily a...

    What's on the bench 2022

    So I've been plodding on with making my MiniArt townhouse look less 'flat'.... I'm on my fourth colour so far..... And only two sides have seen the fourth colour...... It's getting there although it looks a bit redder in the pictures than in real life and also less of a contrast in colours too...

    boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build

    Hi Chris Sorry to hear about all the problems with this kit. My reference to masking fluid, was in response to your comment below about "makol", which I thought was a typo for Humbrol's Maskol masking fluid, which happens to be the same colour. ATB Andrew

    Andrew's Resurrected 1/72 MiniArt Town House

    Evening all So after the Huey Hog crossed the finish line in record time, I've pulled another partly completed building out of the cupboard of shame. This isn't quite as old as the Armourfast Farm House (link), as I only started it just over three years ago! This came courtesy of one of the...

    Andrew's 1/100 Huey UH-1H (Pete's Helicopter GB)

    Hi all So this has crossed the finish line. As some of you will have seen I had any number of problems with the build in terms of fit, parts, decals, breakages (I dropped it the other day), glue problems in places, paint lifting and the like - ALL of which where my fault. It was like the...
