You can tell the missus that the one you've just finished was just a bit of practice for this one lol!

Yeah I saw that this morning Steve, and I have to say, my jaw dropped. :lol: I could be seriously tempted though.:bounce:

Very nice build (what do we call you by the way lol). To say that is your first model finished, I wish my first turned out half as good. I have to admit, I am severely tempted by the new 1:72 revell, not only a (hopefully) good kit but I am fascinated by the story behind it. I just have to hope I don't see it anywhere. So a big thank you for scuppering my don't buy any more kits for a while plan lol

 

[Guest]

Thanks Fenlander. Just call me Andy. Just bite the bullet and buy it. lol

Cheers Andy, had to go to Hobbycraft today to get some paper glue for the grandkids card making kits we got them to try and keep them quiet while Sunday dinner was cooking. Predictably, they didn't have the new one. Hobbycraft appear to have a policy of only re-ordering stock as it sells so nothing new comes in.

Yeah I have noticed that. They pretty poor for that. You could try eModels. I didn't realise until a few weeks ago that they are based in my home town in Stoke on Trent. lol

Oh go on. It's a really got kit. Not too many problems with it really, although masking the ball turret was the worst part of it. Need a good light source and a strong magnifying glass for it. That certainly would of helped. :lol:

So how can you flash your flashlight at it to simulate flak if it isn't on the ceiling? Don't women understand these things?
