    1/35 Hasegawa Hitachi Wheel loader.

    I dug this out today to see if I was going to build it, or something else. Sprue shots. Some lovely detail and no flash. So I thought I would cut off a few parts and see what the fit was like but I got a little carried away. I woud say that the modern Hasegawa kits are up there with Tamiya...

    Tamiys Fiat 131 Abarth Rally.

    All finished now to the best of my ability, trucks, tractors and machinery is more suited to me I think. Could have been better but I have learned a few things in the process which should help me in the future. Andy.

    1/20 Tamiya Fiat 132 Abarth rally.

    Started this last night, sorry no sprue shots as I got carried away cutting bits off to test fit and get ready to prime. Needed something t take my mind off the floaty thing which was bugging me a bit. Andy.

    Is it too much?

    I sold my Sukhoi kit on Ebay last night and was charged 13% for the privelage, seems a bit much to me. They have also changed the system of payouts, now it has to go into your bank account so it will probably be 3 days before I get paid unlike the old Paypal system where it was almost instant...

    Revell 1/144 Schnellboot Fast Attack Boat.

    This is my first foray into the world of floaty things, stop laughing at the back, and it's a whole different ball game and I am still not sure if I want to play or not. However, I will try my best and who knows, it might be OK. In the box are the 2 parts for the hull, 2 large sprues with lot...

    Floaty thing.

    I got this cheapie off Ebay a while ago to practice building boats/ships, whatever you want to call it, but now I am not too sure if I can do it justice. Should I bite the bullet, or put it back under the bench? it's up to the collective. Andy.

    1/35 ICM Soviet Fire Truck.

    At last my workspace has cooled down so I have got this build done. I was thinking of dirtying it up a bit but it looks OK to me as it is. Andy.

    Snapped this today.

    While out and about on the bike I saw this and thought of you military modellers. WW11 25 pounder, it has sat in the park in Dunbar since 2005 and gets a hard time with kids clambering all over it. I have seen it many times but today I thought of this forum, no idea if the pictures mean...

    Spray booth ventilation.

    Having just got myself a cheapy spray booth I wonder what the collective thinks about the vent system. I use the attic for modelling and there are no windows or othe means of venting to the outside. So..........the question, would I really need to fit the long tube on the rear as it would just...

    I don't believe it!

    As I was walking across the attic from one bench to the other airbrush in hand I heard something hit the floor, no rolling, clattering just one sharp sound. What was that I thought? then looked at the airbrush which was now missing the paint cup lid. Now the lid is not a tiny thing and its shiny...

    1/35 ICM Soviet firetruck.

    While waiting for paint to harden then discovering I have run out of flat black the bench would be empty for at least three days. That will not do, so... Sprue shots. Very clean mouldings with no obvious flash and very well detailed small parts. I think this will be a very interesting...

    1/24 Hasegawa Lancia Delta HF Itegrale 16v 19911000 lakes rally.

    Well I have the bulk of the build done. All four wheels on the ground so I must have done something right. First coat of white on the shell. Once the painting is finished I will let it sit for a couple of days to harden up as there is quite a lot of masking to do for the black parts. Now I...

    Seeking some advice.

    I am thinking of building a floaty thing and would appreciate the thoughts of the boat/ship builders here. I don,t want something huge but I don't want anything too small and looking about at some kits 1/144 scale seems about the size for me. Revell seem to have a few kits that size that have...

    Display cases.

    Does anyone know of a good source for a display case for a 1/9 scale motorcycle?, I finally persuaded my mate his model really needs to be in a case but now I am having trouble finding one that fits the bill. Andy.

    For the wingy guys.

    I have always meant to take a picture of this since I joined the forum, and today was the day. It sits in a garden in Moffat, a fibreglass ex gate guardian but it does attract a lot of attention. Andy.

    1/24 Hasegawa Lancia Delta HF Itegrale 16v 19911000 lakes rally.

    I have decided to build a car for a change, I have 2 in the stash, both rally cars from the past but the Martini sponsored Delta is a realy nice colour scheme. Sprues. And lastly the decals. tyres and PE and ribbon for the seat belts, that will be fun. On having a good look I notice a few...

    1/35 Hasegawa Yanmar tractor.

    I finished this one tonight as well as the Ducati. A real joy of a kit to build, everything fitted, no flash and pretty good instructions. And the doors open and close although the hinge parts are tiny and need real care to fit properly. Best have a look under the bench now and decide whats...

    1/9 Protar Ducati 916 racing.

    At last it is all done and all safely packed in a box with some filter foam I got from Andy the paint guy and will be delivered to my mate soon. To say I am pleased to see the back of this model could well be classed as an understatement. Andy.

    Opinions sought.

    I have a basic idea in my head for a diorama but never having done one before I would like your opinions on the vehicles of choice. I intend to use my digger model loading a tipper truck. The picture is to give a rough idea of what is proposed. The digger will be sitting up on a pile of dirt...

    1/35 Hasegawa Yanmar tractor.

    As a little light relief from the Ducati which is getting there I decided to start on this kit as I knew there woud be no hassle with it. Sprues. And the usual high quality decals. For such a small machine the detail is really good. So in between my bouts of fighting with the Ducati I...
