    I haven't heard that phrase in many years! 😂

    Gecko amphibious LARC-V

    Thanks gents. I've used the suggested colour, FS30257 but it's a bit yellow for my taste. I know it'll tone down along the way but I'd rather have something I like the look of than be accurate, so I'll start with a filter coat of Desert Sand and hope that does the trick.

    Andy's 1/35 Tamiya Gama Goat

    Thanks Paul. It's a fairly basic kit so plenty of scope for you to work your magic.

    Andy's 1/35 Tamiya Gama Goat

    I've made a start on this one, skipping through the instructions and assembling the running gear. The two halves of this vehicle are separated by a tractor joint, which allows lots of articulation in the pitch and roll directions, but nothing in "yaw". This is taken care of by steering the...

    Tamiya Extra Thin, whats the difference?

    I have some of the quick set but don't use it much. I like it for tiny details, like inside a cockpit, where you want it to set fast so the part doesn't wobble around. I don't find the bond as strong, so wouldn't use it for anything structural, although I could see it being handy for quickly...

    Migs Group Build

    I'm pretty sure I've never built a mig so this seems like as good an excuse as any. Count me in please and I'll see what I can find.

    Gecko amphibious LARC-V

    Thanks Paul Construction is now finished, except for a few bits left loose for ease of painting: So it was on with a coat of primer: Then onto some preshading. I've tried something different here, adding a speckled layer of white. I expect these faded quite a bit due to being in and...

    Looking good. I'd forgotten about the seat cushion, but I'll never forget those can holders 😂

    Scotties Skoda RSO Rich models 1/35.

    It might just be me but I can't see yesterday's pictures, just "view attachment" a number of times, clicking on which takes me to an error message.

    Andy's 1/35 Tamiya Gama Goat

    Thanks, it's definitely an oddity. Kind of amphibious too as it could float and the tyres propelled it along (slowly!)

    Ian M's Heller 1/24 Mercedes delivery van.

    I always find that throwing a big word in helps baffle onlookers. Tell them it's metamerism...

    Gecko amphibious LARC-V

    @yak face - yes Tony, there's a dingy included which can sit in the load area. I'm not sure if I'll include it though as it there are other options like seats and a stowage box. I'll have to see what fits. @Ian M - unfortunately I'd started this before noticing the logistics gb, but I'm...
