Tankfest 2023
HI all So this seems to becoming a regular fixture for Junior and I. I wasn't that fussed about going this year, having done it two years on the bounce but as soon as we got back last year, Junior said he wanted to go again. They had an early bird price and so we got this year's tickets at...- adt70hk

Andrew's 2x 1/72 S-Model Jagdpanthers
Hi all So now the studies are almost complete, I have selected the next victims to fill the month gap between the end of my studies and Andy's Japanese Plane GB.

Some impromptu shots of HMS Belfast and the surrounding area
Hi all So I was in London today for a small industry conference. It was hosted by a big London law firm, which is based in 20 Fenchurch Street aka 'The Walkie Talkie' building. We were on the 31st floor which meant we got a great view across London and some views of HMS Belfast and The Tower... -
Latest Acquisitions (2023)
Ok..... So I have been weak at the show... My only justification on the first purchase is that I have been promising myself that I would do a 1/35 Firefly at some point. There is a trade stand very close to us..... And he had this..... Now the most expensive kit I own....but at least 10% than... -

Latest Acquisitions (2023)
Ok.... so a return to the one true scale, after my recent dalliances with larger scale aircraft. One their earlier kits.... Don't come up that often but are currently on sale for £20+ incl p&p. Another auction one went for £15.77 at the same time I saw this, which is the cheapest I could find... -
Karl's and Andrew's WW II Soviet wingy thing GB - any takers?
Dear all Quite how this idea came about and whose idea it was is still a matter of debate! I will admit I did say here “Have we had a Russian plane GB......” but that is not the same as saying I would do one…..but I’ll get over it! :smiling5: @KarlW, who seemingly put me in the frame for it...- adt70hk

When is a kit 'vintage'? A bonkers example
Afternoon all I have seen an increasing trend recently towards kits being labelled as 'vintage' and do wonder at some people's definition of the word. In some cases I get it....a kit that is 40 or 50 years old, is in first class condition (for its age), that is long out of production and has... -
Andrew's Flickr Albums for your delectation - various themes and subjects
Hi all So as you know I periodically upload albums where I have been to shows, events or museums. There are some though that I have not shared and so rather than share those on individual threads and so I thought I would share them as one thread. It then occurred to me that it might just be... -
Junior's Lego Technic Heavy-duty Tow Truck
Hi all So firstly thanks again for all the birthday wishes for Junior two weeks ago, they were gratefully received. Having seen Brian's Lego kit he posted, I thought I had better post the shots of Junior's birthday kit as I planned to do last weekend. So by far the most complicated Lego...- adt70hk

Reduced bench time but wish me luck - thanks for the support!
Hi all Firstly, apologies that I have not been around much recently and not commented on your work as much as I would like. Work has unfortunately been extremely busy the past few weeks, to the point that I found myself working first thing in the morning on both Christmas Eve and Boxing... -
Andrews’ 1/72 Tamiya Mosquito XIII ‘Lonesome Polecat’ (papa 695’s 2022 Mossie GB)
Hi all So as some of you know this was completed a few days before the deadline but I’ve not had a chance to take the final pictures until now. All-in-all a very enjoyable build, although not without a few hiccups along the way. It also ticks off a number of boxes; my first ever Mossie and in...- adt70hk

Hi all And so with three days to spare Lonesome Polecat is finished.....JUST.....the glue is still drying! It's unlikely I will have the time to get the full set of pics up before the end of the year and so wanted to get this up to be prove it was done in time. ATB. Andrew- adt70hk

Which DSPIAE nippers?
Hi all As I really have no more space in the stash for new kits, I'm looking at improving my tools of the trade for this great hobby. So I have heard great things about this nippers ever since they were launched, even allowing for the fact that they're not cheap. I know a number of people on...
