    Thanks you very indeed chaps.....such praise coming from a bunch of such talented bunch of modellers is very much appreciated!!

    Andrew's Wooden Tower Bridge - in a day

    Thanks guys. It does work well lit up and fortunately the wire across the middle and down the walk ways on the is not visible unless you're right overhead. ATB Andrew

    Coventry & Warks IPMS - Midland Air Museum (28th June 2026)

    Thanks! I'll pass on the message about the Rapide. What you can't see is that it doesn't have all it's decals. It's a brand new kit and yet as soon as my friend put the side ones in water they literally disintegrated! He's waiting for new ones to come from Ukraine. ATB Andrew

    Thanks Joe. And you're right about the Tornado....it's interesting to hear his real life experiences vs the theory!

    Andrew's 1/48 Airfix Spitfire XVIII (A05140)

    Ok chaps....so just a short update....canopy masking off. It looks like a bit of the wash somehow got under the canopy, via the canopy runner slots maybe but it doesn't look too bad. Since I took these I have assembled it and it's now finished. More pics to follow in due course. ATB Andrew

    Andrew's 1/48 Airfix Spitfire XVIII (A05140)

    Ok chaps, so very nearly there. Should have this finished tomorrow. Today was weathering. For the most part, I simply used Flory washes, Dark Wash. Slap it on and wipe it off. The effect is not as obvious on an all metal finish because the black basing technique inherently leaves darker...

    Andrew's Wooden Tower Bridge - in a day

    That made me laugh....black under the eyes!!! 😂 It was surprisingly intricate and some of the other '3D puzzles' as they call them, look really good. Thanks as always for the support. Andrew

    Coventry & Warks IPMS - Midland Air Museum (28th June 2026)

    Hi all So a bit late, as this show was three weeks ago. For those that have not been, it has the benefit of being at a small museum, with a range of exhibits (mostly Cold War jets), including a Tornado GR1/GR4 that flew in the1st Gulf War.....but more about that later. It's not the biggest...
