    Revell's 1:32 F-4F Phantom II WTD 61 "Test Flight"

    I thought I would do a review of this kit as it was bought for me whilst at Telford. Opening up the box it strikes me that ever corner is packed with sprues, in total you have 11 sprues and two large sheets of decals. The instruction book is fairly comprehensive with several options...

    Travelling repair shop!

    When I first started to attend shows I always found something broken on a build and had to go round asking if anyone had any glue, a knife or tweezers etc. Now I carry my own "Ade First" box I'm sure I could add more to it but this is pretty much what's in it and it tends to set my mind at ease...

    What to build next? ( Voting Closed )

    I'm making steady progress on my Iron Patriot and Bf 109, so I'm starting to look at what to build next so I've listed a few and as usual I thought I'd do a poll :)

    Tiger, Porsche Engine?

    My friend is a huge Porsche nut, so much so he has 40+ kits up his loft to build and has built loads more, I want to get him a Tiger tank as I understand Porsche did some work on the engine, I know Henschel did the main engines after the trials but what I'm after is a resin engine he could...

    Can you name them all?

    Just made a short video of some of the models I've built the past few years, so I thought I would link it in here and let you all name them just for fun :) Oh, first time I've had a play with MovieMaker as well, so be kind :) Adrian

    Aston Martin DBS, Casino Royale

    The names Bond, James Bond,,,,,,,, Here's my finished Aston Martin DBS from the film Casino Royale, the paint is an actual Aston Martin colour Casino Royale. Had to redo the paint on the roof as the lacquer went on way too thick when I applied it. It's a great straight forward Tamiya build in...

    Buying and setting up the Ultimate Man-cave?

    Just a little background first, As most know my mom passed away almost 2 years ago, since that time I have still been living in our home, the same home for the last 20 years, sadly she never got round to making a will so by some stupid law my brother is entitled to half. We originally agreed to...

    IPMS Telford 2014 are you Going?

    Well in 4 weeks time many of us will be in the throng of bustling folk meandering around Telford, or having a sleepless night in anticipation of a Sunday visit :) I'll be there both days supporting my club and hopefully a model on Floy's stand as well, so who else is going? Are people up for...

    Eduard BF109E 1:32nd Balkan Peninsula,,, Update Two

    I picked this kit up three years ago at Telford for just £22! As my Aston is waiting the lacquer to dry and the Anti Aircraft gun is ticking along nicely I thought I'd start this one. Its the first 1:32nd scale aircraft I've done and I plan to leave the engine on show, quick thanks to Stona...

    Wheel hubs, the fast way!

    I picked this little tip up from another site and thought some of you may want to try it if you haven't already. My pictures don't show it as I had already started to paint in the wheels before I saw the post but the entire tyres are painted your preference in colour, I use Tamiya XF-85 Rubber...

    German 3.7cm Flak 37 Anti-Aircraft gun w/crew

    Now for something completely different,, well for me anyway. I'm building this as a practice ready for my big build 88mm next year. I'll be trying some weathering techniques as I go and hopefully gain some insight into armour type subjects. Advice and comments welcome as always. Adrian

    Guy Martin's Spitfire Channel 4

    A it says above, on this Sunday 12th Guy Martin is building a Spitfire, if anyone's seen his previous shows he puts a lot of effort and detail in his projects so should be a good one. That's if it's not a repeat that I've missed and you have all seen it already :) Adrian

    "Weathering" Car interiors?

    My current build is calling out for the interior of my Aston Martin to be painted Tamiya XF 63 German Grey, if I do this it will be all one colour and not realistic at all. With aircraft interiors I put a wash over in an appropriate colour, black, brown etc, what do I do with my car as it's a...

    Please, VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!!!

    Now I have your attention, I'd like to plead for people to vote for a Motorcycle build! I've never built one and don't even have one in my stash but I reckon it would be fun, we're not talking the GP bikes though, how about a Black Shadow or a WWII bike and side car? I can't recall seeing a...

    Where can I get AST5073D Paint code from?

    The above code is the correct paint code for Aston Martin's Quantum Silver paint, I've tried Halfords but they cant mix it, tried a few local car paint places and they cant get me it either, so please anyone have any ideas how to get it? I even emailed Aston, they don't sell it as they expect...

    Ade's Aston Martin DBS ( Casino Royale )

    I've been chomping at the bit waiting to start this kit! I'd hoped to get the correct colour from Halfords to paint it in Quantum Silver but so far the can only get Casino Royale black, I've emailed Aston Martin to enquire about paint codes and I'm hopeful they will respond :) So the title...

    Aston Martin DBS ( I'm a movie star )

    This is the model I'll be doing for the I'm a movie Star GB, having a look in the box I'm well impressed by what you get, I'll post sprue shots later once the GB starts :) Oh if anyone still can't place it,, the names Bond, James Bond :) Adrian
