Much progress! Now just need to wait for it to be warm enough to varnish and then get some decals on.- Charlie Delta Foxtrot

First build in 35 years...
Update Saturday! My filler arrived; Tamiya putty, good stuff so have closed gaps on the wings and for the ill fitting engine covers. Sanding this plane has been difficult as you are always at risk of knocking something else off. In hindsight I should have waited to attach tail, bomb doors...- Charlie Delta Foxtrot

Eduard decal sets for 109
Found what appears to be a digitally colourised picture of a downed 109 on a beach in Kent. (May or may not be real I guess). It I like the colour scheme so have a Revell 1:72 Me 109 f-2 coming. And a set of aftermarket decals from Edouard coming. Any experience with these anyone? A classy...- Charlie Delta Foxtrot

Hello everyone! I am back in the game. I made many a wwii airplane as a lad and I’ve decided, like many I guess, to get back into it during lockdown. I am working on an Airfix Lancaster BII 1/74 and it seems to be coming on nicely. I’ve learnt some new tips and tricks but I’m still as clumsy as...- Charlie Delta Foxtrot
