    Hej! And welcome. Is it the Swedish splinter camouflage you wish to create? There are mask sets for the most common airframe paintedin that pattern. Alternativ is to print the design on decal paper.

    Mercedes 170V delivery van, Heller, 1/24 scale

    Another odd little offering from Heller. They do make some different kit to the norm. Not bad little kit either. Not a shake and bake but easy enough to sort out. Paints are Humbrol enamels God that paint is terrible. I think I know what happened...I think I forgot to wash it down after...

    Now about the 2025 GB's

    As many are aware, some plonker lost the 2025 GB section, then another plonker couldn't fix it because he was car shopping and didn't have the time. Anyway water under the bridge, no names where banded about. Apart from the car shopper dropping me in it before I could do it myself (drop me in...

    New hobby started

    I used to keep fish when I still lived in England. It was a very relaxing hobby. I even joined a club and took part in aquarium shows.

    Great work so far Andy. Surprised that you didn't jump in on the Logistics GB. It could be a blast having one of those. Drive down to the harbour and carry on off the boat ramp. lol. (Bit heavy8,900kg for my Licence though. max 3,500kg).

    Tamiya Celica gt4 Monte Carlo rally

    I use the Vallejo powders as they are nice and fine and when mixed with some mat varnish they dry to a nice flat dusty look. just give it a quick pass or two and you get a nice heavy dust. Give is a more concentrated blast and you can build it up into a nice thick layer.

    Tamiya Celica gt4 Monte Carlo rally

    That Sir is excellent. The whole thing is unbelievably realistic. I like the mud effect. Have you ever tried to spray weathering powders through an air brush. You need a good size nozzle and I wouldn't use your best hissy stick. it does put a good build-up of mud down.I normally mix it with...

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

    Thanks chaps. The best of it is that the filler and the polish are in two different compartments. Same draw but in each there own 'room' in my defence the only real difference twixt the two are one has a white cap, the other blue. Oh and the smell :cautious: Anyhow... A few tatty bits at the...

    They have been warning of a snow storm here in Denmark for the last two days. AND dangerous weather! Well.... two hours in and we have hmm. 2cm snow. wow. All us 'grown-ups' just call it a snowy shower and think back to the winters of the early 60's and early 70's.
