  1. Assembling the rockets lol but testing for duds is a new game to play lol
  2. Fantastic work so far Ron, very inspiring as I have one to build too. Have you seen these figures from Barracuda?
  3. Congratulations to you both, it's great to see all the time and effort being rewarded, stunning levels of modelling here!
  4. I am with Phil and the Tamiya 1/48 Lancaster, I still remember drooling over a built up one in the local model store when I was around 15, 40 odd years ago!
  5. Hope you have a great time Martin, there are bound to be bits that are not so good, grit your teeth through those and the good times will outweigh the bad! Cheers Kev
  6. After watching a few vids on Youtube, i carried on with a bit more of the diorama. I am learning lots whilst doing it too. Very enjoyable so far. Still lots to do, but it's starting to look like a bombed out building, which is what I'm aming for. Cheers Kev
  7. Just a quick mock up, feel a lot better about the fit now. Both Tamiya kits, yet the gun parts need an awful lot of seam scraping but the carrier appears much less. Positions not concrete as yet. Cheers Kev
  8. The gun went together fairly quickly and no real problems. I did have to use the seam tool quite a bit though as a fair few seam lines. The front plate is just dry fit at moment and a lot of the detail parts are to be fitted. I wanted an idea of the size so I can work the base out. It's a bit bigger than I thought it would be, but no worries :-) Next step is to build the carrier to a point where i get an estimate of the size. The diorama may end up with just the gun and crew. Cheers Kev
  9. Very well done Carl! Cheers Kev
  10. Stunning example. One of the best NMF finishes I have seen, thank you for sharing your method. Cheers Kev
  11. Very nice Gaz, lovely model Cheers Kev
  12. Just keeps getting better and better Ernie!! Cheers Kev
  13. Right, about time that a start was made at long last. Here are the sprue shots Thats the Universal Carrier, Here's the 6 Pounder This will be a slow build as I am also doing a 1/48 English Electric Lightning F1 at the same time. Hopefully I will keep on top of updates though. Cheers Kev
  14. Stunning build Frank, should upload it to the Airfix site! Cheers Kev
  15. What a cracking build Ernie, and about as different from the box artwork as you can get, lovely job! Cheers Kev
  16. Excellent modelling, great to watch it come together. Cheers Kev
  17. Very clever, controlled by a Nintendo Switch? Cheers Kev
  18. Exciting stuff! Looking good so far! Cheers Kev
  19. I have the Mossie so that gets my vote, but then the Hellcat has just arrived too! Cheers Kev
  20. Now that has to go on the bucket list! How cool would that be? Now I must go and buy some lottery tickets, I'll be right back! Cheers Kev
  21. Fantastic rate of modelling Carl, mine is still boxed atm. I love the Sherman too, would love to crawl around inside one and get a feel for the space inside, or lack of it. I read an excellent book by Ken Tout "By Tank D-Day to VE`Day", very good read. Cheers Kev
  22. Subscribed, my the Hellcat looks nice! Cheers Kev
  23. That looks fantastic Carl! I really like the way that the tracks sit. Would not want to be in the Dingo and find that in my way :-) Cheers Kev
