    Latest Acquisitions (2022)

    So I've got to stop listening to the James Holland and Al Murray podcast......or show more backbone!! Although in this case they actually had two full shows discussing various topics with the author. 2nd hand and less than £4 delivered. ATB. Andrew.

    Gardening questions - odd white substance in underside of leaves

    Hi all Not my usual area of questioning but my wife (she does most of the gardening) noticed a funny whiteish-yellow substance on the underside of leaves and on the stem of a small variegated leafed shrub we have, We've done the usual internet research but haven't been able to work it out...

    That's a distinct possibility given his 'About' me info. It's been decades since I went to Yeovilton.

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

    And so decal placement has started.... Approx 55 per plane.... The AM decals are very nice but once down they won't move, making proper first time placement essential, which isn't easy as you can see if you look closely....I also think the crosses may be slightly overscale based on the side...

    Name that vehicle!

    Hi Steve, I am no expert on British armoured cars but I am pretty certain that is a Humber armoured car of some type. Looks very similar to the Daimler armoured car from the side in many ways. However the sloping front is the giveaway, as it is stepped on the Daimler, I know because I've built...

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

    So all masked up ready for RLM74. The destructions and a 1/32 build I've found online of this aircraft have slightly different variations of shape of the splinters and also differences between which bit is RLM75 and which is RLM74, so I've done a mix of the two to my own taste.... Just don't...

    Hi Paul In answer to your question about the dio scale, it didn't actually say but at the time I thought it was braille scale...1/72 or 1/76. Below is my picture from a slightly different angle. ATB. Andrew

    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...
