  1. Great idea
  2. Thank you Cees, a real nice kit to build. Now where do I put it...
  3. This year has been a great learning curve for me and I agree with Danny and Gus. A good primer and tamiya acyrilic's mixed with IPA or Mr levelling thinners has been by far the best for me so far.
  4. Thanks GusMac,it's a great kit you will enjoy it.
  5. Hi all, Iam calling this done, thank you all for the comments really do encourage me along. Airfix hawker typhoon Mk.1B 1/24, master rockets (work of art), eduard gun set,metal landing gear and painted with tamiya xf81,82 and 83.
  6. This is a heavy weight build, well done Richo
  7. Great effects I really like this method of painting.
  8. Time to update this "tiffy",it's now in the final stages and weathing is well underway. I'm confident this will be finished in the next few days. So a few quick shots of the progress.cheers all.
  9. I must admit I really like to see a well weathered model, Great job
  10. Great wearing effects, post shading is very convincing. well done Rob.
  11. Hi Scrodes, nearly exactly as the seat cover. silver base,RC424 base leather, brown mix varnish watered down, applied same way as seat cover. then applied a black wash to blend. I have a quick method earlier on this thread.
  12. Looking good very neat.
  13. Jim that looks great, next Iam going to start my F8. you have convinced me. Converted to A8 with left over hassy parts.
  14. Very neat work as always Rick, inspiring stuff.
  15. Just wondered Gus of you could water it down. The humbrol you can. They are very smart, slight mod to fit. But worth it. Thanks Rick , yeah it's big just picked up a 32nd fw 190 a8 feels like a 48 scale now lol.
  16. I used humbrol liquid maskol . On the leading edges I applied this with a toothbrush flicking it on. now I will weather this in.
  17. I've managed to get the paint on with the d- day markings here's a quick shot. Fun stuff to follow... Cheers Darren.
  18. Great review as always Jim, was in P&S hobbies Scarborough this year while visiting my Son on holidays. Great little shop packed to the rafters.
  19. Good luck mikester with your move, and can't wait to see your lufftwaffe builds in the new year.
  20. Sorry Rob, didn't mean to scare you with my dodgy air brushing(not the airbrush fault).nice and raw, like blow by blow. It just shows an idea that may come in handy... Yes that airbrush is fantastic.
  21. Hi all update 3, some primer and paint going on. I think you get the gist from the picture's. Alcad white primer Tamiya xf 83 mixed with some xf 2 Tamiya xf 82 mixed with some xf 19 and a masking idea I wanted to share
