    Real pity Airfix seem to have ditched theirs. I quite like some of Trumpy's kits but the standard is almost laughably variable and this does seem to be a Friday afternoon job. Hadn't realised either quite what death-traps these were - that's a pretty horrible loss rate!

    You don't settle for an easy life Rich! Looking forward to this.

    I'm sure there were some pictures on LSP of it at Scale Model World at Telford last year. As imagined it was huuuge.

    The plate for the base looks amazing. As James says, that PE looks insane. Rather you than me. I get mad just with a set of etch seatbelts!

    The paintwork on those figures is stunning!
  6. GusMac
    Superb finish. Would definitely be interested in a book of your work.

    Wow, that's a real find Jeroen. Great image. People sometimes are shocked by what was possible 'pre-digital' but those photo-recon cameras were the best around.

    Very nice. It's a real skill to paint figures realistically and those are very good.

    That's right. The velocity of the bomb was so high it basically punched a hole straight through the bottom. Another Barnes Wallis special.

    Nice catch Danny. Just watched a documentary last night on BBC4 about the 617 squadron operation to sink her.

    Those lenses look really good. Coming along very nicely.

    Nice bit of ingenuity for the spinners!

    That's a serious amount of plastic, even as it stands partially tooled. Might have to rejig the house to make room for one of these!

    Sounds interesting Rob. Always good to channel a little weirdness once in a while....
  15. GusMac
    That's an interesting name for an aftermarket company!

    Nice outcome Rob. Time for it to get grubby!

    Nice figures. Are they Reedoak?
  18. GusMac
    Nice. Looks very effective.

    Looks great Danny. Did you make the base yourself as well?
  20. GusMac
    Looks like painting will be fun.....
  21. GusMac
    Great end result Rob. Worth the perseverance.
  22. GusMac
    Thanks Jeroen. Do you use the brush on version or just small spots from the standard applicator?
  23. GusMac
    That looks ridiculous. Are you soldering them? There doesn't seem to be much of an attachment point for glueing them.
  24. GusMac
    Superb. If you hadn't followed along with this you'd never know this was entirely scratched.

    Hi Rob I agree that the boundaries between colours/washes can be problematic but I've never used a combination with too stark a difference, just subtle shade changes, and it's been okay to now. I can see with a very pale wash like this that there may be plenty of issues. Never tried anything too heavy but my planned next build is a Greek A-7E and they are well beaten up, so might have to think about how I go about that. After all the grief the ZM kit gave you earlier in the build you should be very happy with this outcome. Cheers, Gus
