    Tamiya SAS jeep 1/35

    After giving the body a coat of olive drab I then gave it a mist of hairspray . The hope is that once its been painted in the sand colour I can scrub away a little to reveal the olive drab underneath to simulate wear and tear. The sand colour has now been roughly brushed on ( as it was in the...

    Latest Acquisitions (2026)

    Got this for a bargain £6.40 delivered , its the Revell Hurricane mk IIc but in a Marks and Spencer boxing with four little paint pots a brush and a tube of contacta . I also got the conversion kit ( cost more than the kit though !) to be able to do a mkIId with the twin 40mm cannon pods . I...

    Tamiya SAS jeep 1/35

    After reading up a bit on these I found out they were delivered from the factory in standard olive drab and were hand painted in the sand colour by the soldiers , so thats what im going to do too. Most of the parts have had a coat of olive drab and I think I'm going to brush paint the sand .

    Airfix Hurricane mk 1 1/72

    Thanks a lot guys , I cant recommend this kit highly enough - its really nicely detailed and goes together well . The undercarriage needs a bit of care to thread through the spar and if you want to have the canopy open you need to sand the spine down a bit but the lovely cockpit is worth...

    Airfix Hurricane mk 1 1/72

    Cheers joe , hopefully they might do a metal wing version of this tooling , would be easy enough to just make a new wing mould , and i think theres an armoured screen on the clear sprue already . The upcoming mkII d is going to be the Revell mkIIc with an aftermarket conversion kit , I seem to...

    ESCI 1/48 Henschel hs 129 b-3 completed

    Heres the ancient ESCI Henschel hs129 in 1/48 . A tooling from 1977 but with a little bit of fettling and a set of etch seat belts scrubs up pretty well .
