1/48 P-39N Airacobra
Not had too much cave time the last couple of weeks so this has taken a little longer than expected. I've been surprised at how different building aircraft is compared to cars and weathering is totally new to me. I've tried to give the impression of a well weathered aircraft, as I imagine it...- Wendall

1/48 P-39N Airacobra
The last plane I built was when I was eight years old. I say built but if I recall it was more like throw some glue and paint at it and hang it from the bedroom ceiling:). I suspect that's how a lot of us started!! Anyway, Whilst in my LMS picking up supplies they were reducing some of their...- Wendall

Got my first Plane!
Just ordered this! I'm thinking ahead to next years Group builds and there is so much variety I thought it would be a good time to broaden my modelling horizons. The Harrier build grabbed my attention. I remember seeing them take a bow at Fairford a few years ago. Very impressive. Until now...- Wendall

Ferrari 330 P4
Finished this! Fujimi curbside model built pretty much oob. Its a good kit but a real shame it doesn't have any engine detail it would probably only need another eight parts. The clear plastic parts are a bit flimsy as well, the screen was a nightmare to fit. Anyway the F40 build stalled this...- Wendall

Ferrari F40
The Brutal F40! The catalyst for a life long love of all things automotive. As a young boy I would spend hours longingly staring at posters and magazine articles, dreaming that one day I would own one... Well now I do:)! After a bit of research I decided to go for Tamiya's 1/24 kit...- Wendall

Nissan R390 GT1
Well here's the finished article. Its taken longer that I expected so I hope its worth the wait. I'm pleased with the way it has turned out. Not sure if it qualifies as 'Super Detailed' but its been fun. Build thread here http://www.scale-models.co.uk/threads/tamiya-1-24-nissan-r390-gt1.19741/...- Wendall

40 Year Old Decals
Gentlemen! After some advice please. On closer inspection of my 1970s Lola T160 kit (I've posted some pics in latest acquisitions thread if you're interested) I don't think the decals are going to be of any use at all. Any Ideas, advice, suggestions?? I have done a Google search and can't find... -

Tamiya 1/24 Nissan R390 GT1
So! I've decided to make this one my next project! It was going to be the Porsche 911 GT1 but I'm waiting on a few after market goodies so I thought I would practise some new tricks on the poor Nissan. I've done a few of these car kits now, and they've been pretty much straight out the box...- Wendall

YAMAHA YZR500 RED BULL
Well its finished at last! Having never considered building a bike before I am pleased to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Being a Tamiya kit it was a doddle to put together and really well detailed. The decals were fairly straight forward with the aid of microsol and the better halfs hair...- Wendall

1/24 Tamiya Sauber Mercedes C9
I started this kit about 3 months ago. I decided I was going to paint it in Halfords aerosols (other vehicle accessory shops are available). So I bought primer, colour and clear. I followed the instructions to the letter and behold....... as soon as I shot the clear it went horribly...- Wendall

Yamaha YZR 500 Red Bull
First motorbike, first GB so here goes. This will be my contribution I know nothing about motorbikes so my selection of a subject was based on pretty colours. I'll try not to make a hash of it but I just had a quick read through the instructions and I'm making no promises!! Jason- Wendall

Tamiya 1/24 CLK DTM D2
Hi All, Next to emerge from the Man Cave is this offering. It has been on the bench for what seems like a lifetime, mainly due to the monumental decal job which has taken hours and a tanker load of microsol. Annoyingly the colour started to bleed on some of them and there are still some that...- Wendall

Tamiya 1/24 Jaguar XJR-9 LM
I Finished this one a few months ago. I've always loved the 80's Le Mans cars so thought I'd have a crack at this. There were a few problems with fit which you can see in the photos, particularly the engine cover which still wont sit quite right. The Silk Cut decals are after markets from ebay...- Wendall

Airfix 1/72 Willys Jeep & Trailer
Hello All, I got back into modelling at the beginning of the year after a 12 year break. I've completed a couple of builds so far, mainly 1/24 Le Mans Racers but I thought I'd start by posting something smaller. Bought this little guy on impulse for £4 at my local model shop, good value for...- Wendall
