    Quite grey in London, but no rain and not much wind at the moment.

    Online resources for 3d printing

    Afternoon gents, As I am as yet bereft of a 3D printer, and wanting to get some bits printed, does anyone have suggestions of online companies that can print for me? I'm really looking for personal recommendations rather than just a Google search. :) Cheers, Bob

    AMT Shelby Mustang GT-350

    Cheers gents. :) Stefee, I have some very nice metallic blue left over from a Suzuki Ecstar bike build which I think will look good with either a white or silver stripe.

    AMT Shelby Mustang GT-350

    Morning all. :) The first round of filling and sanding went well. The large gaps are nicely filled and the rear end sanded down flush to the side panels. As expected there was some shrinkage so I have applied sprue glue and will give it a few days to fully harden. I'm actually away after...

    Pushing Back .......

    All looking very impressive Toto, you have some patience with those cobbles. Your comment about the roads not being up to military vehicles reminded me of a story my dad told me. He did national service in the 50's and was a tank driver, specifically a Mk V Centurion. He told me about driving...

    Stefees Revell 1/24 '71 Ford Mustang 351 Boss

    Proscale are nice paints, I've used several of their manufacturer colours on builds. Mark (the MD) is very helpful and will mix a colour for you even if it's not on the website.

    AMT Shelby Mustang GT-350

    Agreed Jim. I will give it a dust coat of grey primer to identify any issues, then go over with white primer.

    Amazon Policy Change

    I was visiting my daughter at university in Northampton recently and saw one of the wheeled Amazon delivery robots trundling down the street. Very clever technology, though not sure how it would work if you were not at home to remove the package from the robot??

    AMT Shelby Mustang GT-350

    Cheers gents. :) I got the filler on yesterday, will leave to fully cure until tomorrow and give it a sand. I think there may be a few rounds of fill and sand to get it right.

    AMT Shelby Mustang GT-350

    Afternoon all. :) Made a start on this today. Sprue shots up first. I started with the body, and unfortunately the kit is showing it's age (or I am too used to Tamiya kits). The body is nicely molded, not to much clean up, but the fit of the front and rear panels leaves a lot to be...

    AMT did an XR3i kit, no idea where you would find one tho.

    Tamiya 1/12 CBR1000RR-R

    Really, really nice Andy. You were unlucky with the decals, they are not usually that problematic.
