Should I use it and if so how? If I shouldn't use it what should I use instead? Or can I just use warm water? Lots of conflicting advice and opinions out there on YouTube and other modelling sites. Bagman

So after the me262 I've opened this (bought on here - can't remember who from but a bargain ): came with airwaves set and cannon barrel set: So internal detail removed: but left the mounting points for the seat as it seems the whole detail set hangs off it: Anyways, this isn't about showing off my modelling skills ( hahahhaaaa) but rather for advice. I've read that the pe parts should be either soldered (not for me - i'd burn my fingers before I'd plugged a soldering iron in) or attached using superglue (ca?). At this point my question is how do I "hold" the pe part before attaching? Read various posts about using wax pencils, uummm ear wax and various other things. Any advice? TIA! Ian

I've had a slow WIP at: But have faltered at the last hurdle - the decals are falling to pieces. I realize that someone having a surplus sheet of decals for a 2 seater Viggen they'd be willing to sell on is a bit unlikely so I'd appreciate if anyone has any ideas on how to rescue old decals? Is there something I could overcoat the remaing ones with which would keep them intact? I'd only gotten as far as messing up the two roundels so if I could rescue the rest they'd hopefully be easier to source replacements

Hello all My father in law worked on Lightnings with 5 Squadron at RAF Binbrook in the early 70s, and I'm hoping to make him a replica of a machine he may have worked on from that era as a surprise and a reminder of his time there. I've got the Airfix kit, but am struggling to find appropriate decals. I saw CT Modeller's build in 1/72 of a Lightning in the scheme I'm looking to do (http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234958536-5-squadron-lightning-f6/) but the research I've done so far into decal options at 1/48 doesn't provide any options for a 5 Squadron lightning from that era, like this one below. Does anyone know of any decals that might be available for such a scheme? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks very much Adam

I've put 5 Revell star trek kits on the for sale forum,as you guys are S/F knowledgable do you think they are still sellable at the prices ? Or is it that s/f isn't popular with most modellers? I'd like to know your views Terry

Anyway I need a bit of advice as to who makes what regarding the 48th Harrier GR7/9 bits and bobs, I need a MDC decals for the Revell/Has kit and a set of CVR's. Now who makes the MDC and can I still get it from Hannants? And what Beltch Bits bomb set do I need??? Cheers the Woo
