  1. Still 110% in admiration of your perseverance. 😃
  2. I'm with you Mike, buying more chemicals not products. Some thoughts ... I've just bought 10 years supply of Tamiya extra thin ...... 1 litre of MEK for about $14 .....$200 bucks saved Add MEK to Acetone ( 1 litre about $7) roughly 1:1 and you get Mr Colour Laquer Thinners $40 bucks saved Add Water to IPA ( 1 litre about $10) roughly 70/30 ....and you get Tamiya Acrylic thinners, which I also use for airbrush cleaner paint thinning , bench cleaner , Womble cleaner etc . $35 bucks saved Once a while I drop my metal airbrush bits in a pot with some cellulose paint thinners (Toluene) ....and the paint acrylic or enamel falls of with a lil shake . Toluene also cleans up Alcald paints. Melts plastic though 🤕 Chemistry 1 .....Marketing BS 0 They all have to publish Data Sheets which advise the active ingredients 😃
  3. Shame . TBH I might be moving around mid May , but hopefully can squeeze it in as it's only an hour so drive for me .
  4. My entire knowledge of the State of Texas comes from TV and films ....where they don't mention snow at all . I know it snows there but it always comes as a shock .
  5. It's coming together really well. On my Revell one I used Al foil to represent the canvases with which they covered the railings , however would seem a shame to cover those nicer in scale ones up .
  6. Jeez that tooling is older than me !
  7. Could you not cast a replacement using the other side ? Looks relatively straightforward part ?
  8. Humber Scout car , 31st Armoured Brigade, Operation Epsom, June 1944 . Enjoy or not . Laterz, PW WIP here
  9. I think you got your moneys worth there
  10. We'll need a flag perhaps . ... or will you be stood under the Sunderland lol !
  11. Always felt they were a bit of a "late to the party" mosquito ! Looked a lot of fun to fly in that config No bay of pigs versions then ?
  12. Fun fact , apparently the layout of Humber Scout Car was the base vehicle used when developing the Alvis Ferret , even though the Dingo was a Daimler (Alvis) product.
  13. Getting there , don't fret over the water , it's just freshly applied medium , it'll settle down . Got a couple of fellas to add in , maybe some bushes ? Next up -hopefully glamour shots -but between work , moving and family stuff I'm struggling to find time this month .
  14. eeza lookin great there , such a nostalgic build .
  15. Second that , a 1/32 Battle would be 20" wingspan ...a lot of shelf space for a minor league aircraft. Probably take longer to build than its combat service. 1/48...I'd possibly give it space Saw the one at Hendon , didn't really perk my excitement I must say.
  16. @npb748r @Bomber_County Any of you guys or anybody else fancy that for an unofficial LSM meet up ? I'm due a visit there this year .....and frankly the Mossies are really drop dead gorgeous !
  17. I need something better too !
