  1. Never had any problem with Amazon so far.However Royal Fail and Parcelfarce, that's a different matter.
  2. It's superb stuff, use it all the time. MRP is equally as good.
  3. I pre-ordered both the Sea Fury and Hornet direct from DBMK Was happy to wait for both. They are both excellent kits , have started on the Hornet, no major problems yet, goes together well for a limited run kit. The Sea Fury looks excellent and is not limited run but "proper" injection moulded. Will have no problem pre-ordering Thunderchief.
  4. Hi, I'm currently working on the 1/48 Dora Wings Master and am trying to find cockpit details, especialy the sidewalls in both front and rear. I'm aware that there are Pilots Manuals of the Master 1 avialible online but would like to ask if anyone has these and if they include pictures of sidewalls before I buy them? I'm aware of the other shortcomings of this kit such as the innaccurate early canopy and am still considereding how I'm going to fix this. Thanks in advance Andy
  5. Hard to tell but it looks like it only includes the small intakes not the large bore ones? Will wait till it comes out, will be getting one regardless.
  6. Hi All, Thinking about building DG202/G using Tamiya 1/48 kit up in stash (one with correct non airbarke wings) . As I understand it I'll need to make following changes. 1. Fair in gun ports in nose 2. Scratchbuild new rear canopy fairing 3. Rescribe ailerons to include outer balance horn 4. Fill in aileron trim tabs and rescribe inboard 5. Make accurate style tail codes 6. Remove tailplane acorn Is there anything I've forgotten? Also all my refs say Dark Green/Ocean Grey topsides yet Tamiya and existing aircraft in museum say Dark Green/Dark Earth? I'm tending to the DG/OG finish myself but what do others think? Thanks to all who answer, Andy
  7. Well unlike Hasegawa it appears to have correct sized wings , and doesn't seem to have rows of rivet holes on rear fuselage to represent the flush spot welds. Closer inspection will no doubt throw up other differences.
  8. That's pretty much what I was thinking, will need to find a spare gyro sight, have some resin ones somewhere. Thanks, Andy
  9. Yeah, my duff keyboard skills!
  10. Hi All, Currently building the new Airfix Spitfire FR Mk.XIVe, and will be finishing it in the No 11 (AC) Sqn. RAF, 2TAF, Buckeburg, Germany, 1950-51 option. Would this have been fitted with the later gyro gunsight or the original older type (as kitted by Airfix)? The one post war pic I have found of TZ112 doesn't show this clearly enough? Any advice welcome. Thanks, Andy

  12. I just bought one this weekend, still has the early moulding of canopy :(

  14. Got the kit in front of me. If you mean the lower front and rear corners of the quarter lights, either side of the central pane, then yes, they are rounded. HTH Andy
  15. Filling the joint on that separate fuselage top is going to be a pain!
