    M4A3 Hobbyboss 1:48

    Ok chaps I've not been posting, but that don't mean I've not been building. I built this straight from the box, which included PE light guards and great detail allround, the unfortunate thing is that in typical Hobbyboss style, the detail is good, but the fit is rather poor. The weathering has...

    Mig acrylic resin

    Hi there folks. Has anyone used the above? and what's their experience of it? I did a test run on a spare wheel I had lying about and I dunno I'm just not convinced by it, it's not "right" but I cant put my finger on it. I followed the instructions on the tub, 30% plaster 30% resin 40%...

    Painting tarpaulin / fabric

    Hi folks, I have a tarpaulin to paint, I've done the base shade in mid-earth and I'm looking for tips on getting it a bit more "3D". I am going to wash / drybrush, but I'm sure I read somewhere that I can wash the matt surface without glossing it,giving a subtle dirty effect, but I can't...

    Another Flying thing. Airfix Buccaneer 1:48

    Hey chaps, I've been doing bits and pieces of quite a few different projects but more and more are making their way to the finish line. Here's one example. 1991 Operation Desert Storm Buccaneer S.2B. It has been glossed, decaled, washed and glossed again. I got the masking off the canopy...

    A fast target, Me-262 nearly done

    This is the Revell 1:72 scale kit of the -B1a/U1. Painted with my usual mix of Tamiya, Vallejo and Humbrol. I've taken a "what-if" approach to the weathering, mainly what if the Schwalbe had done what it'd meant to - hold off the bombardments, extending the war somewhat. Applying some...

    Italeri Pak 38

    Evening folks, After gettin so many kits dug out from the depths of my "to finish" pile and nearly done (STAP, Buccaneer, Mirage, AC-47, Me262) , I thought I'd treat myself to starting a new one. It's nothing fancy, just a kit to "break" the dribbly finishes of my others, no complexity, no...

    Italeri F-19

    My first past the post of 2010. It was more of a "get it done" than "do it best" build, so it's nowhere near perfect, but it looks like an F-19 and that's the plan! :D PS I know the canopy is very poorly done, that's my fault, not the kit's... Thanks for watching 8-) Stitch

    Esci Mirage III

    I'm just finished putting a couple of coats on the upper surfaces. Apart from the F-ING fingerprints it's looking not bad.... I think one more coat on the topside (plus trying to get rid of the fingerprints) and I might be ok... Comments / Crit welcome B) Stitch

    Two of my works in progress

    First photo post and it aint even a tank :blush: It started life as a TBM-3 Airfix 1/72 kit. I added a radar, winglets on the horizontal stabs, searchlight and I (deliberatly rough) covered over the windows and ventral gun fairing. All will be explained on completion... And a 1/48...
