    Peter's Airfix Spitfire Mk.1a - 1:72 - 90 Yrs of Spitfires GB

    Depending on the plastic. You could try a hairdryer. If that doesnt work I would get a piece of smooth bar with the correct curve on it. Heat it up and then just hold and shape the plastic by pushing it onto the heated bar. You may to try various degrees of heat before you get the right one.

    Boatmans 1/200 scale USS HORNET CV8 BUILD AN LIGHTS for the Doolittle raid on japan

    Hats off to you Chris because you do take on some challenging difficult builds. When this is done why dont you treat yourself and get involved with a Group Build with a simple less complex model. You would enjoy it I'm sure.

    Peter's Airfix Spitfire Mk.1a - 1:72 - 90 Yrs of Spitfires GB

    One thing you could do Peter if its a bit thick is use a thin piece of clear plastic, something from a drinks bottle, and cut it and shape it with some gentle heat and use that for the back section then your center section will fit over it.

    Steve's 1/32 Revell Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc

    Today I have been working on the rear horizontal stabiliser and elevator and getting some colour on to the interior. Hats off to Revell for the design and fitting of the rear horizontal stabiliser. They have made it so that there is a bit of a step on the join so that the stabiliser can only be...

    Me too Joe. Its a relatively easy fix and I havent seen anything that bad since the 1/24 Airfix FW190 that I did some years ago.

    Steve's 1/32 Revell Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc

    This last session I have been working on assembling the horizontal stabilisers and elevators. You are required to cut a small triangular section off the stabiliser in order to get the elevators to fit. The arrow points to the bit that needs removing. Once cut you are left with these Then with...

    I had to look twice at this one Colin when I saw the EE Lightning alongside the Spitfire on the box art. A very interesting scenario.
