    Happy new year and starting the 1/32 Hobbyboss Spitfire

    Hello all and Happy New Year! I've been itching to build more British subjects and what better way to start then the Spitfire! This kit has a lot of complexities and has given me some challenges. Beer has helped and a nice smoked Ham does pair well with this kit:hungry:

    Recently discovered splattering with fine lines

    After a long while away from the hobby and one hell of a hard move this summer, I'm back. And its great to be back here! I've attached some photos of my current weird issue-A badger 105 and velocity, both fine airbrushes are giving me grief when making fine hairlines. I'm getting these "Ghost...

    Airfix 1/48 Spitfire PR XIX

    Good morning all! Here are shots of my latest "stress reduction) model! It came out great and if the mis scribed line on cowling, cracked rear canopy with drying Future (or Klear), schizophrenic marking scheme and slightly marred and crooked decals (water was a bit too hot) ignored, it looks...

    Converting the 1/24 Airfix Spitfire MkVb to a PR MkIV?

    Ok, I've met my soul mate: A spitfire in PRU blue. So much so in fact that I've stopped all work on other projects to practice on a Academy XIV, converting it to a P. R. I understand that the MkVb was later re designated to PR MkIV (recon) My big question is with the deletion of cannon and...
