    Meng F/A-18E Super Hornet 1/48

    That is very impressive!

    Cleaning the stash... Sort of

    I waited for a delivery of some books from Amazon to see if the box was the right size, but it's too small. Nothing for it, I'll have to get an appropriately sized box by buying a new kit. Now what to buy, so many choices.... I'm thinking something a little different, maybe a WW1 aircraft -...

    Steve's Hasegawa 1/72 AH-64A Apache Attack Helicopter

    Well this looks a whole lot easier than the Mossie. The perfect antidote to a 'challenging' kit. Looking forward to this one.

    Geoff’s Tamiya 1/48 Bristol Beaufighter Mk.VI

    I was assuming that the second seat was a gunner, but I assumed wrong, I see. Navigator/Bomb Aimer? It looks nice and neat and well worth the extra PE

    Cleaning the stash... Sort of

    So I am selling a kit, and I need a box to send it in. If I buy a new kit of about the right size, so I can then use the box that comes in to send the one I've sold, does that count as clearing the stash?

    Nick's Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XIV.

    Looking good now, really nice clean demarcation on the camo there.

    Poly caps

    Or in my P47 build, not finding the poly cap that is supposed to be included. :confused:

    Jim R's Revell 1/72 Torpedo Boat, PT-109

    It is looking good - but that white plastic doesn't get any better over time, does it? You'll be glad to get the primer on.

    Neils Tamiya 1/72 Republic P47D Thunderbolt ‘Razorback'

    Primed and painted the red bands on the nose and tail. The nose and prop are not glued, just there for the photos. Annoyingly, a tiny bit that I spent 5 minutes getting the masking on, flew off, never to be seen again. Sigh. Just a clear piece that is a light on the underside, I'm sure I can...

    A game changer…..

    I'm sold on the idea, now to put my email in.

    GODZILLA

    Perhaps you can start a sideline in writing the instructions? It is probably not a very lucrative sideline, but just saying. Very nice

    Going awol

    Are you not a teeny little bit tempted to not do any modelling and just sit down, and admire the glorious setup? At least for a while, anyway. It is not going ever be quite so organised once you start.

    Who are you, and what have you done with Kacitgirl?

    How could you not love the really bad second head on Zaphox! And of course, the babelfish which was then used as the name of one of the earliest online translators.

    Going awol

    Well, pardon me, Sir, but that is an impressive rack you have there! If I may be so bold! Of course, when it comes to the next build, it will probably take a long while looking and a few select -> put back -> select iterations too. Good luck on the choosing.

    I'm sure I had something pithy to say, but I've forgotten what now. It was probably mildly amusing! and I accidentally posted a blank message so now I'm editing it to not look like quite such a noob mistake 🤪

    Newby (well, almost)

    Hello and welcome, much has changed indeed - no more raised panel lines, CA, canopy glue, different paints for brushes, and airbrushing, more types of adhesive than you can shake a stick at, different sanding types and grit levels. And we all have a dodgy kit or three hidden away somewhere! I...

    Andy's '57 Chevy Bel Air

    Those big old V8S used to go on forever. I knew some folks in Boston when I lived there, who had big old beaten-up Chevys and Fords for 'winter cars' - they had 3rd party insurance and didn't care if they got pranged. The body work was easy to replace, and the whole car would collapse before the...
