  1. I reckon I’ll wait till I’m retired and then start with a row boat, amazing modelling…
  2. Neil, absolutely stunning, congrats. The black lustre you have achieved is amazing. I really need to get myself a Hurricane and that price maybe a couple. I wonder if you could do a Sea Hurricane out of this donor kit…….congrats….
  3. You must do a WIP on this, never seen one built in any scale…….
  4. I didn’t until I pulled it out of the box, around 28” ……….I need to think hard about displaying it when it’s finished. I’m getting concerned with my lack of display, some cunning thinking has to be done…..
  5. Looking forward to this, I saw the AM rotor built up somewhere, it’s beautiful in its own right……….
  6. Appreciated Kev, life and work keeping getting in the way………
  7. Neil, that would be great……I must admit until I joined LSM I didn’t share builds either and definitely not where I was before (you know where). Since starting showing my builds it has improved my modelling…….is the London store still open?
  8. Flawless as ever John, I will finish my ZM 51, just haven’t decided on the scheme. I’ve the kit decals but they do not float my boat…….
  9. Neil, do you have any pics? I’m planning on a Hurricane in the near future……you ever go up to Hannants warehouse, you’re that far away?
  10. Definitely Mark, never seen a build of this…..
  11. Hmmmm one thing I’m guilty of as well is not shaking or stirring paints for long enough. Thanks PW, I’ll have a look……..
  12. Love the subtle weathering, congrats….
  13. Looking good Bill, are these still available?
  14. Thanks Maru, just starting to realise I need figures to enliven my builds. This is going to be very helpful indeed…..
  15. Gaz, hope your wife recovers very soon. As for you young man, let’s hope the test stays negative. Get well soon……
  16. Nostalgia flooding back looking at this. Those days all I could afford was Airfix 1/72 so 1/48 was huge……looking good Peter…..
  17. I was reviewing the paint required for this…….Xtracolour, Tamiya Acrylic and Vallejo Model Air is what I have in stock. Hopefully they all play nicely…….
  18. I did a SOE Lysander which is black u/s. I used Vallejo Grey wash and it just hit the black back and left a fraction lighter in the panel lines…………as for the Hurricane, not sure……
  19. Thunder Model's 35th scale C9/B Morris Bofors Gun Truck "Late". Makes a change from Axis mobile platforms……
  20. Left in Aug 2018 and have never been back. Not sure if I’ve even got a log in anymore not that it matters because this is home now……..
  21. I watched this on TV in the 70’s. Wasn’t Richard Baseheart the admiral? One episode gave me nightmares, when they were swallowed by a whale……….
  22. Is there anyone else out there who manufactures this punch set or similar as those sizes sound ideal……..
  23. Now that is unusual, I have the Takom Male Mk1 which would make an interesting diorama…….if anyone ever builds the Mk1 get an AM set of tracks…
  24. Only a couple hours left on the Flammpanzerwagen and the Panzer 4 L , I thought it was about time to crack on with the GB. First off I did the display cradle as the hull is a little large to balance. The cradle needed some love but is now good. I started on the hull as didn’t want to have this to do with any of the deck fittings on. The trim at the waterline (called ?) now fixed plus the drive shafts. I’ll wait till the end to fit props. Fixed the sprue gate positions on the hull. That’s about it for a few hours modelling. Apologies for not being very exciting……DAK figure looking on……..
