  1. Freakin’ brilliant news Peter………….……..wow you must feeling like a man with two dangles………..awesome……….more builds please……….
  2. Thanks for the review, I think the Whirlwind was my second ever Airfix 1/72nd kit…….
  3. I thought Kitlinx was a US based company..?
  4. Peter, good luck with the scan, we all have our collective fingers crossed for good news……..
  5. John, that’s one busy office, congrats on bring all the components together……
  6. Ok after reading Peter's decisions on his P39, it’s time to finishthe 51. So I thought I’d try and spray the cowls tacked on to the engine, bad idea and this has paused the build. So cowls off and will be cut into component parts and sprayed. Scheme may have to OOB as can’t justify another £20 odd for new decals. also the ZM ones are cartograf…..looks like no work this week ……so may just sit and spray……..
  7. Guys, they say patience is a virtue……….or do want it RIGHT now…….
  8. Gaz, believe me when I say you have more enough talent to pull off a ZM, also I reckon you’d enjoy the experience……just never say never…….
  9. Thanks Gaz, the Academy boxing is no Tamiya kit but is doable. I was very nervous, especially when you read the horror stories of the fins splaying outwards. They are not luckily…..
  10. Same here Peter in time, it looks like the enamel has hardened overnight so I can buff up a couple of areas….
  11. So I thought I shoot some paint at the P38 to see I need to fettle any areas. The only available correct colours I have are Xtracolor enamels, natural grey and faded olive drab. It’s been years since I used Xtracolor (JohnB swears by them). The grey went down a treat but I’d forgotten how long it takes to dry and harden. Admittedly I did mix 50-50 with white spirit, probably a little to thin? Can’t really remember the mixes I used before……
  12. Nice haul…….Can we ask for a WIP please, really want to know how both of these go together……did you go for the bells and whistles for the Helldiver?
  13. Time to start the ZM P51 now you have the pit goodies……..
  14. Now they look the business, if I had somewhere to stand the behemoth these new turrets would sweeten the deal…thanks for sharing…….
  15. This is going to be cool……..didn’t really appreciate the investment in these MFH kits……
  16. You’re storming along on this one, so clean and immaculate, never done a 39 ….looking forward to the next instalment…..
  17. That’s one cool tractor, congrats. Never built any prime movers / tractors…….I do like the straight from the factory finish…….dare bet they didn’t stay that clean for long….
  18. Looks fabulous, congrats. As Harv said we need to see more of your builds …
  19. The 48th market is getting so good now, also having built the ZM F4, I am not sure if I’d have room for the same plane in 32nd…….the same with the P38’s not that there is a 32nd contender IMHO…….…
  20. I did read it somewhere that Zoukie Mura may have news but don’t hold me to it………..
  21. Carl, why not break the habit of a lifetime and start on it now………
  22. Stunning Rob, love the subtle tones……talking of building, so no work at present been put on holiday, unfortunately instead of bench time, I’m decorating the house. I feel guilty modelling when I should be at work….weird ………..
  23. You guys have radar vision……..
  24. Rog the size of a small garden then……..
