    1/24 ‘Dutch’ Schaefer ( Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator)

    That's a great sculpt, and very nicely painted!

    I'll do my best chaps.

    Water washable resin

    After lots of research I've pulled the trigger. I've gone for ABS-like resin as it's supposed to be more flexible & durable, without sacrificing too much quality. Ideal for our needs I think. Once Thomas has got it up & running I'll have him give his dad an idiots guide 😁

    Cheers. I'll be putting in a second row of seats. It won't be very comfortable back there as there's no legroom, but it's better than walking 😁

    Thanks Tony, I haven't seen one out in the wild for many years. There's a guy near me on Ridgeway Road with all manner of iconic vehicles on his drive, including a Citroën HY and one of those 3 wheeler Piaggio "vans". I keep hoping one of these will appear some day 😎

    I hear it's an "experience" lol. My Series lll was enough of a handful, I bet these were hard work!

    Toyota GR supra

    I did a front end on one of these recently and as you say, it's just a hard topped BMW . Sat inside, you'd never know it was wearing a Toyota badge, it's Beemer everywhere you look, even the key fob.

    Cheers John, I generally find a solution for most issues in the end. Some just take a bit longer than others 😁 The axles are now fixed in place, with the wheels just blue tacked on for the moment. It might be a bit overloaded though! 😳 I'm now working on the chassis outriggers, most of which...

    I've registered my interest with them Tim, hopefully something will come of it. I don't really want to start painting these until I have a solution.

    Sprue goo?

    Jim, I've found it good in some very specific circumstances, but generally use something else. Since it (eventually) dries and becomes part of the model, in exactly the same material, it makes rescribing panel lines that bit easier I've found. Fillers and /or CA are often harder or softer than...

    I managed to find something by using a reverse image search. Of course they are out of stock 🤦 https://www.railtec-models.com/showitem.php?id=2006

    HST paint job

    Thanks for all of that Tim , I might pass some of it onto my mate so he can spend hours searching for transfers! So far I've only come across the older red & yellow style. I'm weighing up other options like printing my own (in grey) or making stencils, but transfers or stickers would save me...

    Sprue goo?

    Only if you put it on thick Bob. It's loaded with solvents and thick layers can skin over, leaving the solvents trapped underneath. Several thin layers work better but it's still not something I use a lot.

    Thanks gents, it's quite a lot of fun too. I have the suspension to sort out soon, I'm not sure that will quite be as pleasant 🤔

    I haven't. I'll give them a try, thanks.

    What a sh*t Week

    Really sorry to hear that John, hope all goes well for you.

    After a few touch ups with filler this is looking more respectable. I've tried to work around the front end details as best I can as I was concerned I'd not get the lights back in the right place. There are decals in this area so near enough should be good enough. I've also started work on...

    Tamiya, what have you done this time?

    Ah yes, the L900 had layered wheels & tyres. That seemed strange at the time but worked very well.

    Well, I never imagined that I'd be posting in this corner of the forum! A mate of mine that I've done a lot of work for in the past (1/50 fairground builds) has been working on a OO gauge layout in his loft and has asked me to paint a couple of pieces for him. Basically he wants the ones in...

    “GET TO THE CHOPPER!! “ Arnie in 1/24

    He definitely has the likeness of Arnie. Looking great so far.
