AK Pencil set
I have 2 large AK pencil sets that are free to the first 2 people that want them, they retail at £46.25, you just pay the postage. There is a problem with the pencils and the coating is coming off, so you get black on your hands when using them, but I’ve put some in some heat shrink tube and... -
Got the bug

I don’t have a clue what sort of fish this is, I’ve been...- John

Magazines: Digital or paper
Airfix want me to advertise in their digital magazine that you can download to tablets etc, I just wondered how many people prefer digital over paper, it will help me decide if I’m going to take out an advert with them. -

1/16 Peterbilt 359 Conventional Revell
I thought I would have a go at one of these, there seems to be quite a bit of plastic :) I know white is probably the worse colour to spray so I don't know if to just varnish the already white plastic or go for a different colour.

1/25 76 Ford Torino Revell
I got some of these in the other day so I thought I would give it a go, the plastic is already coloured but I will have to paint it, albeit the same colours as they already are. It's not going to be a complex build- John
