    Das Werk DW35033 Personenwagen Cid-27 available in the shop?

    Hi John I’m just wondering if this might be available in the shop when it releases (sometime in Oct/Nov I think) https://www.das-werk-models.com/2024/06/17/sneak-preview-dw35033-personenwagen-cid-27-donnerb%C3%BCchse/ This is a piece of rail stock that will fill a gaping whole in the 1/35...

    Is anyone using a Cricut?

    Hi Alexander What you need to do is draw a square around separate elements, this will define the edge of the mask. For instance, the S9 will go in a square. Then you need to 'group' this all together, so the S, 9 and the square will move as one piece. Do this with each element and you will end...

    Gecko Models 1/16 Universal Carrier MKII (Bren Gun Carrier) - 16GM0016

    The slide moulded springs are a marvel. They look compressible (when removed from the sprues)

    What's on the Bench 2024

    Hi everyone I haven’t posted for a while but I thought I should share this little build - the 1/48 Eduard Sopwith Camel. I’ve motorized the prop and will mount the model on a simple stand with the battery and switch. It’s not finished yet but is nearing completion… I start the rigging...

    Paul's Trumpeter 1/32 Fairey Swordfish Mk.I

    Hi guys I've been doing a bit more test fitting of the pilot. He seems to fit ok apart from his left arm which I've shaved down a little. The folds in the fabric of his jacket etc will be remedied when I fill the joints in the limbs. Here's the test fitting process... Now I have a question...

    Paul's Trumpeter 1/32 Fairey Swordfish Mk.I

    Cheers Ian I managed to bag myself a couple of hours bench time today so I've made a bit more progress. I've got the pilot in situ and added a few more bits of etch. The pilot actually fitted quite well. I did do some surgery to make his limbs reach the pedals and the joy stick but, straight...

    Paul's Trumpeter 1/32 Fairey Swordfish Mk.I

    So I've made a start to the Stringbag... As usual things begin in the cockpit. I've started adding a few bits of etch from the Eduard set. The floor features a nice treaded pattern which should weather nicely and the various levers have braces and finer bits and bobs to busy-up the cabin. The...

    Paul's Trumpeter 1/32 Fairey Swordfish Mk.I

    Missing a couple of shots from the sprues as I could only upload 20 pics. Here's the rest (the second shot being the Extradecals sheet). Thanks, P

    Paul's Trumpeter 1/32 Fairey Swordfish Mk.I

    Hi and a very happy New Year to everyone! It's really nice to be part of a group build again (thank you to Ian for suggesting this). This has proved to be a really popular subject for a GB and I'm seeing some really wonderful and varied entries even at this early stage. This is my offering - the...

    1/35 scale figures Russian suggestions please.

    I think your best bet (or at least the easiest to convert) would be these? A long time ago I converted a set of Miniart Russian and German infantry (Kursk dio if anyone remembers it). I was pleased with the results and it’s not that difficult to do. If I see anything closer I’ll be sure and...

    Not posted in a while but I am busy with these 1/16 figures

    Hi everyone It's been an age since I last posted any work on the forum so I thought I'd give an update on what I'm doing. A little while ago I began work on a long term project sculpting 1/16 figures. These are intended to accessorise/accompany particular 1/16 vehicles, the first of which is the...

    Latest Acquisitions (2023)

    Sorry, sorry, sorry!... If this seems familiar there is a reason! Like an idiot I accidentally deleted my own post! No one need like/love comment on this as this has been posted once already but I thought it would make sense of previous replies! :thinking: I'm a proper klutz! This fabulous...

    Still plugging away at these 5 !… 5 Fokker Dr.1s 1/24 scale by Meng

    This is what five 1/24 Fokker Dr.1s look like in progress…

    Not going to do a build log because I’ve already started the builds but thought this shot may be of interest… 5 cockpit tubs, 10 fuselage halves and no fewer than 15 wings! Cheers Paul

    New 1:24 Airfix Spitfire mk.IXc!!!!!

    Just seen this on Facebook. Awesome news - a big scale mkIx spitfire!!! Detail looks incredible. Only just seen this so no further details. I know not everyone builds this scale but for me this is exciting news. Maybe they’ll retool the mk I soon too. Happy days

    Tamiya 1/16 RC Panther (resumed after a long hiatus)

    Almost (but not quite) finished... I thought I'd to have this finished today, but that just isn't going to happen. Instead, here's an update of where the Panther is now. Another accuracy issue: After a double check with my references, I realised that the sockets or 'pilse' for the jib crane...

    Tamiya 1/16 RC Panther (resumed after a long hiatus)

    Hi Chris Here's the pics of the camo I promised. I only managed to get the markings painted on to the one side so there's still a little bit to do. Also the light for photography isn't ideal today. It's easy to feel a little bit jittery about the work at this point, as the paint job is at...

    Tamiya 1/16 RC Panther (resumed after a long hiatus)

    Tools, tow cables and jack block... Thankfully the new idlers proved easier to install than I previously feared. The Panther is in one piece again and the build can continue. I decided to take a break from the main build and concentrate on the tools and cables. I mentioned earlier that I would...
