Stunning Rob, bet you feel tired and emotional after that…….

Rob, you nailed this, amazing planking congrats..

Thanks Rob, I cleaned first with IPA and added a couple of drops of Vallejo retarder and then thin coats. All with the relatively cheap H&S Ultra ……

First off welcome to LSM good see new faces and secondly, some very good modelling skills on show here. Looking forward to further updates….

Love the book series title……always remember years ago I went to a model railway exhibition, I think it’s the only one I’ve been to. Two guys actually came to blows over how many rivets there should have been or not in a loco tender that someone had scratch built……..

So first black primer down to see all the mistakes……..I may use this as the bottom colour for the SD. It’s Vallejo black primer…….

Larry, your scratch built 2C is amazing, way above my building skills, please show more of your projects as it’s education and inspiration for everyone. LSM is not the kind of forum to be judgemental unlike a few we know. I use an iPad for all my postings and never had a problem, not sure why there is a problem. I’ll check on my Mac Air later.

That looks very intricate mechanisms, like the factory fresh look….

Part of the b’day spend……..AM for the Famo and trailer…….and my first ever Japanese subject…….it gets write up..

Sorry to hear that Harv, hope you’re on the road to recovery………

Looking at your Sabre makes me want one…….great finish congrats…

Harv, get some that percentage proof mojo kicker down you man……

I feel a new genre in my future……

Thanks for sharing Richard, the ‘stang looks amazing…….

Carl, they knew dad would get it in the neck………thanks for sharing, so want to go to a show………

Another stunner, those Xtracolour paints are very good, the contrast against the decals is stunning…….what’s up next John…….

I also got this last Christmas after doing their Ju88 North Africa, really enjoyed it and I am a convert of ICM. Looking forward to the build…….the mask set would be an idea I think……

The U S Grant memories were a hard work , I may return to them one day. Moved on to this…

Jeroen, love the magazine touch, reading up on Joe……..

Talk about cursing, Trumpeter F4F-3, closing the fuselage up………

Stunning Gaz, always amazes me at shows there are usually stands with old 70’s 1/72nd kits like Frog but they are packed with people getting very excited. I think 48th is the lowest I’m going……

Rob, this has moved on a lot, the planking looks 3000% better than my attempt. One day I’ll have another go, working 8 hours a day really messes with bench time……

Gaz, absolutely awesome build, looking forward to seeing more. The new acquisition of the Tamiya Famo & Tank Transporter has 12 figures with it…….12, I mean, I struggle at 1 or maybe 2……..

Ahhhhh caught this one early. 1975 I was 15 and watching the legendary Murray Walker commentary on terrestrial TV., halcyon days. This is another genre I’d love to look into, I didn’t realise Tamiya are reissuing their classic kits. Yet another bucket lister……….

Peter, I reckon I’ve been living in a different universe recently, this build passed me by completely. My work / life balance is pretty screwed up at present. The 40 is looking amazing, love the subtle colour differentiation of the engine components. Looking forward to the final reveal……
