    Room / Building temperature affecting paint?

    I only brush paint, and I use a few different model paints, Tamiya XF, Mr Hobby Aqueous, Humbrol, Vallejo model, Revell Aqua Colour, Mig/Ammo, and TBH I don't notice that much difference between all of them. Mostly I do use Tamiya XF, but I'm not that experienced, so.....

    The forgotten Waffenträger Auf E-100 from ModelCollect

    Are they the rubber tracks or the individual link ones? I used to hate the rubber tracks, nothing I tried would stick them together properly, eg: normal model glue, using a hot screwdriver to melt them, etc, but I now have a system that works for me. I use super glue (CA), and I weight down the...

    Its too flipping Hot!

    No its not solar, its 240 mains, it just a portable unit, not fully built in AC. Personally, in the great scheme of things, I don't think my keeping two rooms cool, for those few days in the year when its very hot, will harm the planet too much.
