  1. Excellent work Adrian. Gotta love these small scale biplanes especially when finished as well as this one. Well done πŸ‘
  2. Looks good to me 😁 nice work on the weathering. Coming along nicely. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  3. Nice work on your dioramas. I hope you find a solution to the Spitfire canopy. You've nothing to lose cutting up the kit one if Ian C sends you a vac form. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  4. Hi Seb, I'd recommend you don't take the paint straight from the pot to brush on to the model. Get a paint pallet or an old plate to mix your paint on and thin it down with tap water or recommend thinner. Mix the paint until it's of a consistency similar to milk and apply multiple thin coats until you achieve the density of colour you need. From experience these paint pots are hit or miss and need thorough stirring until you get the colour consistent. Hope that helps. Cheers Greg
  5. Great job. I really like the paint job and weathering. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  6. Good solid result especially using the kit paint pots. It's good to hear you enjoyed it enough to try some more. Have a go painting the canopy frames. You can pick off any excess acrylic paint with a cocktail stick before it fully dries. Welcome back to the hobby πŸ‘
  7. Beautiful model. Incredible workmanship. Very well done πŸ‘
  8. Looking good. Keep up the great progress πŸ‘
  9. Superb restoration. The Devestator was one of my favourite Airfix kits. I built mine in line with the box artwork. Well done πŸ‘
  10. Nice work on the machine guns which are looking good under paint. Looking forward to the next update. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  11. A real beauty 😍 well done πŸ‘
  12. Well done Simon. An epic build of a difficult kit. Looks good from here. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  13. All looks good to me. Seams always present a challenge but your top one at least looks flawless. Keep up the good work. πŸ‘
  14. Nice work on an old classic. I think the moulds are originally Monogram. Unusual scheme and a bit different. Well done πŸ‘
  15. Good to see this one progressing. Kudos for your hard work getting closer to the finish line. I have one of these in the stash........😬 Cheers and keep on keeping on. Greg πŸ‘
  16. Great attention to detail Roger. I'm looking forward to the finished article. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  17. Again, great detailing added to an already detailed kit. The tamiya bottle does provide perspective with the engine looking bigger than I imagined. Lovely work. Looking forward to the next update. Cheers Greg
  18. Looking good πŸ‘ progress has been swift, which presumably reflect the good fit Airfix have achieved with this kit.
  19. Very nice work. I love the look you have achieved with engine. A lifesize object in the photos would serve well to provide a sense of scale. Well done πŸ‘
  20. Excellent progress. She's really looking the part with the paint job. πŸ‘
  21. Great work so far. Anyone who can rig biplanes has my admiration. I had no clue there is internal rigging as well! Looking forward to more progress. Cheers Greg πŸ‘
  22. Cracking builds of these vintage Airfix classics. They are all really good and I particularly like the Battle. Well done πŸ‘
