Revell 1/144 Saturn V - my first attempts at scratch building.
Hi all, As you may be ware this kit is bereft of much detail at all and is woeful in some places so, after consulting images etc., I added the frameworks, piping, brackets etc. you see in the photos.

What's on the Bench 2024
After receiving various goodies from the shop I have started to tart up the Revell 1/144 Saturn V. Firstly the 5 main engine bells and base plate are bereft of any details. Each exhaust has taken 2 hours to remedy the seams and interior which were awful with card, sprue glue, filler and...- Stefee

Tamiya 1/24 Lotus 7 with tweaks.
Hi all, Just finished my latest build as per title. Lovely kit if a little fiddly in places (looking at you seat belts). I went a bit mad in the engine bay with cables, pipes, brackets, coil etc. but really enjoyed bringing it up. The one problem is that the bonnet doesn't fit 100%. This...- Stefee

Revell 1/25th Corvette C1

All the parts fitted really well with minimal flash and light seam lines but the masking/painting of all the black trim was an absolute PITA and in the end I gave u...- Stefee

Recent arrivals for future builds. The Lambo was an Ebay purchase for £19.99 delivered and Saturn V with unopened paints for £24.20 delivered so very reasonable I thought. The 747 Shuttle transport came through John at our shop. n at the shop. -
