  1. From my experience , water ok ish , their own thinner used sparingly is better , also some swear by Tammy X20 which is better than water and has less retardants. I've used all three in the learning process . It's doesn't react that well to hotter stuff like MPR self levelling or other things with high IPA content ( it can 'split' like milk does) . Found once I had a good feel for the viscosity, it becomes more straightforward , initially I was put off by me over thinning . You can spray them straight from the bottle according to their blurb, which is ok if you just want heavy coverage , but out of the bottle viscosity varies by pigment density. But this is what I love the best , esp being a big fan of Mike Rinaldis work . In this vid he's put the paint on a bit thick , put it on a bit thinner and it drops off easily. Sorry if I'm being a bit of a proselyte .
  2. Looking great , nice tonal variations .l dont know if you are a fan of Flory washes but used them in the past on NMF and they really pop the dirt and smoke residue effect .
  3. Drivers going to have to lean a long way out of his hatch to see anything on that representation 🤣 It's a pity no other manufacturer makes a Chally 1 , the old 1986 Tamiya kit's ok-ish ( I built a KFOR one a few years ago) , but theres a lot of stuff missing from the boxing . I see Twumpy planned to do one , not sure if that would be much of an improvement though.
  4. Looking good , take it no seat belts in the kit or do they use decals ?
  5. Part trois of the xmas build ,
  6. It's good to see some nice engineering from them . Looking good Martin , how are you enjoying the Atom ?
  7. Glad you modified the gonadlas , they look great now .
  8. Sounds like an annus horiblis as our Liz once said , thats Latin for huge sh%t storm . I hope you’re well on the way to getting back on a sounder footing. You didn't miss much - just a bunch of blokes glueing bits of plastic together; the endeavour of which is truly nada compared to loosing your home and cars . Best wishes from the UK
  9. Mirrors Revell's approach with their 1/32 Fw190 , have to shave a lot off the engine to close up the nose .
  10. Or gently flat blade scrape it ?
  11. Well spotted …thats my 1/24 match 😀 heres the 1/35 version
  12. Part Deux of the Xmas build Only the two part per link tracks to complete .. #regrettablelifechoices
  13. I'm so sorry to hear that Hubert , all my best to you and your family, I hope next year brings a lift to your life.
  14. Nice one Dennis . Quite an oddly proportion design, I had to go take a look as wasn't aware of that one .
