    Humbrol petrol?

    Hi all, Before i start, all the old school among us who has stripped a weber carb down will know the smell i'm talking about. Can someone tell me what is going on with Humbrol paints? I've just opened up a tin and it smells like i've just stripped my Capri down in the bedroom, it smells like...

    Centurion3RTR's Hobby Boss T-34/85

    I'm going to say this is finished, after an accident with the dio and three attempts to fix the base i've had enough and it went in the bin. So now the T-34 is just a stand alone model. I've had a few problems with this kit (my own doing) but enjoyed the build, and the next time i make something...

    Rufford Park 1940's Weekend

    Hi all, i'm sorry i've not been posting or model making for a while but with everything going off i just haven't had the time (daughter going to university). One thing i did have time for was today at Rufford Park, and what a day it was. It was just amazing, no tanks but a good few softskins...

    Hi all, because we have plenty of time left on this GB (and plenty of windows to cut out of USS Voyager) i thought it was time for me to build some more armour. Right here we go, Hobby Boss T-34/85 Model 1944 Angle-jointed Turret with full interior and in 1:48 scale, from what i can see it looks...

    Two Degrees Left

    Battle of Prokhorovka July 1943 Battle of Prokhorovka - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Well it's all done, or should that be i've had enough of it. The Italeri 1/35 Marder III is not the best kit in the world but hopefully i've made a good job of hiding it. I'll not go into detail but at...

    Sd.Kfz.139 Marder III "Centurion3RTR"

    Hi all, what we have here is the Italeri's 1/35 Sd.Kfz.139 Marder III, not to much in the box but should look ok when it's finished. I know i build in 1:48 scale but a lot of you who normally make 1:35 have come to my scale so i've gone to your's and building something a wee bit bigger. Got some...

    Defense of the Reich

    Here we go, now i can see it's all finished and loved every minute of the build. Tamiya's D-9 and Kubelwagen, Italeri Opel Blitz and the great ICM figures. Not a clue on the history of this aircraft, i build tanks after all but i hope you like the photos. As always have fun, John

    Message from Centurion3RTR.

    Hello all of John's friends, i'm Wendy, John's wife. He has asked me to pop on and let you know his modelling has stoped for a while. He has bad conjunctivitis and can't see a thing because both eyes has patches on (he looks like a negative panda). I've told him he needs glasses but he won't...

    Question for all

    Hi all, just thought i'd ask. When my Bf109 is finished, would it ok to show the tail with the Hakenkreuz(the swastika) or will it need to be blocked out? I just don't want to get the forum in trouble. Thanks, John

    Downed Bf 109E

    Academy's Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3, this one is Heinz Bär but this is not going to be his aircraft, it's going to be a downed 109 in England and being guarded by the Home Guard. The kit is in 1:48 scale so i can use some of the Tamiya figures i have in my stash. The model itself looks very nice...

    The good old days.

    Hi all, a good few weeks ago i was thinking of some of the models i built when i was a kid, and made a mess of them too. There were some kits that i would loved to build now but, one sticks in my mind, it was the Matchbox 1:76 scale L.R.D.G. 30cwt Chevrolet & Jeep. And now Revell have the old...

    Mud Mud Glorious Mud

    Well, here it is, 1:48 scale Hobby Boss M4A3E8 Sherman, a lot more of a challenge than Tamiya but i enjoyed the build. Not one airbrush in sight, this was done with a brush only (because of the scale). I went for this one because i liked the colour scheme, makes a change from just green. The...

    Something out of nothing.

    Scratch building, what's that all about then? Why do you need to scratch build when you can buy models?................. Well, i'll tell you why and this is from someone that never did scratch building, until a few days ago. Scratch building is when you need a certain aircraft, ship, whatever...
