    Anne Frank 1/60 scale model house - Completed

    Hi all So we actually finished this a few weeks ago but I only got around to taking some shots last week, albeit it's a bit tricky given how closed in it is. I won't bother explaining the background, we really all should know about it - even if you have not read the book. As I said in the...

    Andrew's 1/48 Tamiya Raiden

    Good evening all! That's right.........for those of you that know my work I am deviating from the one true scale that is 1/72. Having acquired sixteen 1/48 wingy kits in 6 months, it was about time I actually built one. This will be the first ever 1/48 wingy kit I have built and is also my...

    Anne Frank 1/60 scale model house

    Afternoon all So as you I know picked this up on a trip to Amsterdam and the house itself. A lot of kit makers could learn a lot from this kit: Excellently presented sturdy box. Flip top lid along the left long edge, with magnet lock on the other side. Almost seems a shame to throw it away...

    Tankfest 2023

    HI all So this seems to becoming a regular fixture for Junior and I. I wasn't that fussed about going this year, having done it two years on the bounce but as soon as we got back last year, Junior said he wanted to go again. They had an early bird price and so we got this year's tickets at...

    Andrew's 2x 1/72 S-Model Jagdpanthers

    Hi all So now the studies are almost complete, I have selected the next victims to fill the month gap between the end of my studies and Andy's Japanese Plane GB. I'm going back to my roots and doing these. Nice and simple quick-build wargaming kits but not bad all the same and two kits in the...

    Some impromptu shots of HMS Belfast and the surrounding area

    Hi all So I was in London today for a small industry conference. It was hosted by a big London law firm, which is based in 20 Fenchurch Street aka 'The Walkie Talkie' building. We were on the 31st floor which meant we got a great view across London and some views of HMS Belfast and The Tower...

    Latest Acquisitions (2023)

    Ok..... So I have been weak at the show... My only justification on the first purchase is that I have been promising myself that I would do a 1/35 Firefly at some point. There is a trade stand very close to us..... And he had this..... Now the most expensive kit I own....but at least 10% than...

    Latest Acquisitions (2023)

    Ok.... so a return to the one true scale, after my recent dalliances with larger scale aircraft. One their earlier kits.... Don't come up that often but are currently on sale for £20+ incl p&p. Another auction one went for £15.77 at the same time I saw this, which is the cheapest I could find...

    Karl's and Andrew's WW II Soviet wingy thing GB - any takers?

    Dear all Quite how this idea came about and whose idea it was is still a matter of debate! I will admit I did say here “Have we had a Russian plane GB......” but that is not the same as saying I would do one…..but I’ll get over it! :smiling5: @KarlW, who seemingly put me in the frame for it...

    When is a kit 'vintage'? A bonkers example

    Afternoon all I have seen an increasing trend recently towards kits being labelled as 'vintage' and do wonder at some people's definition of the word. In some cases I get it....a kit that is 40 or 50 years old, is in first class condition (for its age), that is long out of production and has...

    Andrew's Flickr Albums for your delectation - various themes and subjects

    Hi all So as you know I periodically upload albums where I have been to shows, events or museums. There are some though that I have not shared and so rather than share those on individual threads and so I thought I would share them as one thread. It then occurred to me that it might just be...

    Junior's Lego Technic Heavy-duty Tow Truck

    Hi all So firstly thanks again for all the birthday wishes for Junior two weeks ago, they were gratefully received. Having seen Brian's Lego kit he posted, I thought I had better post the shots of Junior's birthday kit as I planned to do last weekend. So by far the most complicated Lego...
