Latest Acquisitions (2024)
Not really into Jets,but this is one of my favourite aircraft EVER:cool:,kits of 'em are quite hard to come by in 1/48,so after seeing this in an email from Jadlam,I snapped it up.Apparently, it's not the greatest kit ever,but eminently doable....and better than the Kitty one :thumb2:.- The Smythe Meister

Well then, I've been buying too!! :astonished: Always liked the effect that dry brushing gave to my armour builds, but after seeing a post on YouTube the other day I decided to try and up my game,(seems I was doing it wrong to get excellent results,was using flat brushes),so I bought some of...- The Smythe Meister

The Smythemeister's 1/48 HobbyBoss Hurricane
So then, I've not done as much as I'd hoped,but ere be some progress... Kit supplied masks on there, generally very nice,but I ripped both of the tiny front ones,as you can see,so had to use some liquid mask! Then it was spray on the "Sky"for the majority of the underside, followed by masking...- The Smythe Meister
