    Tamiya GB...Rules and chat thread

    Starting 1st November? I could be up for that - noooooooooooooo idea with what though. Like other's have said I'll probably decide 5 minutes before I post it.

    M16 Half Track...... Tamiya 1/35

    Very nice - I keep meaning to pick up one of these Tamiya US half-tracks, they're really good looking vehicles.

    Tamiya 1/48 Grand slam Lancaster

    That's very nice. It does look a bit different without the top turret doesn't it.

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Different configurations? Really? Interesting, I didn't actually know that - you learn something new everyday.

    BOATMANS F16 CJ with hopefully lights

    An impressive amount of work Chris, with all this wiring and LEDs, it's going to look great when done, oh and there's nothing wrong with the pilot. what final scheme are you going for? I think I'll go and take a look at your Hornet build! :cool:

    21st century toys Macchi mc205 Veltro 1/32

    Dam, I'm going to have to try harder than my paltry little Airfix kit, there are some serious builds going on in this forum. :cool: Loving the subject and I think it's great you're going to put the pilot in - looking forward to seeing it progress.

    Papa695s Zvezda 1/48 SU-25 Frogfoot

    What a cracking build Ian, you're doing a great job with that so far, the cockpit and u/c looks great and I loved the glasses on the pilot - did they come with the kit? It's a great choice of subject (who doesn't love the Frogfoot) and it's really interesting to see a 1/48th Zvezda kit - I...

    At what point is your "stash" getting out of hand?

    I start to get palpitations if mine gets over 90... it throws out my weight and balance! Seriously I've sold a load off this year, and gave some to charity, and maybe more will go in future - it's rather cathartic. If I could, I'd like to keep it at sub-20, but at the moment it's about 50...

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Oh I 100% agree on 1/72 Chris - I'd do the same. But as you said, on a smaller scale it looks good. I'm liking it a lot - I've not had too much time to post as I always seem to be busy, but you all seem a good bunch and there's some interesting stuff going on. (and I'll remember about the b...

    New to scale modelling!

    Welcome to the forum and the hobby - you've come to the right place. I totally agree with all the others of said - I have drawers full of tools and paints, but even after a life time of building, 99.999999% of the time I just use the below. - on every build. OK so you might not need the...

    Worst /best kit you’ve built.

    I'm going to throw out something controversial here... One of the best kits I've built in the spirit of 'fun and enjoyment of building' was the 2009 tooling of Airfix's Mig-15. I know, I know, the fuselage was the wrong scale and shape, and the panel lines were awful - but from a standpoint of...

    How do we manage to lose large parts ?

    Wormholes... There's a planet out there, next to the one full of missing socks, that is full of missing parts of models. It's in the dimension that the carpet monsters come from.

    Airfix 1/72 (old tool) Meteor III.

    Over the last week I've been fiddling with this old boxing (1974 actually) of Airfix's Meteor III - a pretty basic kit it has to be said, but with what appears to be really good fit. As said - it's a pretty simple kit, not many parts. So far I've just been chucking a few bits of white...

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    A lot of airliner modellers do this Chrisb, so that they can use window decals, or the trim decal comes with the windows already in it - look at this one below, it has the windows for the cockpit and the cabin windows as part of the trim stripe. I guess it's easier than masking and painting...

    Lockheed L1011-1/200 Hasegawa

    Coooooooooooooooooooooolll! I love the Tristar, I used to see the RAF ones all the time growing up, along with the VC-10's. A great looking aircraft.
