Would you be able to let us know how it performs please Paul?

I’d be very interested to see how effective it is 👍

Thanks,

Geoff.

And, as I have found out on my current Diorama build, and using fine casting powder, PVA and Milliput putty, I needed some tools suitable for plaster, clay, putty, etc, so now have some....

More glue and paint....
I really like this super glue, seems to be made by "Logic"? only used the thick one so far, but thats nearly empty.
So bought a new one and have now got some medium too.
A nice size too, my first bottle I've had for several months, so its lasted well, has not gone "off".
It does leave some residue around the top, which I cut off with a scalpel type blade, but the actual bottle/tube has never got blocked.
Does not go off too quick, just long enough to have a fiddle/adjust if necessary.
Edit: should have added the thick one is good enough to fill small gaps too.

Found an old model shop in my local area (Teynham - Weston Models), never been in before, as I'm quite new to this area having only moved here a while back. There was not many kits, they seem to specialise in RC stuff and make their own engines, etc, but they had a small selection and there was a couple that I liked the look of, so I bagged them.....

Ok chaps.....

So I have had been quite good on the kit acquisition front, not having bought anything since 29th December...... and indeed not acquiring/buying anything until Feb!! Can't remember when I went this long without getting a kit!!

ACW as usual.

So first up I got this free a couple of weeks ago from a club member, as Airfix had included the wrong kit in a Dogfight Doubles and it wasn't his thing. This obviously goes nicely with my 1/72 Brit aircraft. From what I can gather £10 is about the right price.









This one I saw on sale at last weekend's show, with someone at a club table getting rid of some kits. It's not my usual subject but it really caught my eye. This is a reboxing of Hasegawa 2006 kit, that is a by all accounts a very nice kit. Eduard has also reboxed it. The absolute cheapest new I can find this is currently £32, with £25 being the cheapest 2nd hand sale on eBay.....I paid £20, so all in all not a bad price!
