Got the same kit in the stash, think I'll move it on I can't cope with all the hassle nowadays 😄

One of Britmodellers unable to answer little quips, bit like when it decides to go snail slow from time to time 😆

So by the time VAT etc is added closer to the £200 I'd expect

Blimey and I thought an Optivisor was expensive 😁

Looks like we have found where Morgan got the light idea for their Morgan Aero 8

Well considering you say you don't build them very often, when you do they look pretty good to me, great build there

Another classic from the Russ factory 👍

Superb, just shows with the rights skills you can make a stunning model oob

Really brilliant build, I'd like to know how you did the boat covers also, their the best I've seen in that scale

What's the fit issue with the front cowl, have seen sone other builds which they don't seem to mention it

You don't need a PayPal account to use Ebay any more

Well as far as I know they've never announced anything new for Tamiya at SMW, they tend to save anything like that for their own one in Japan

You know everyone said it was a ugly aircraft , but the more pictures you see of the F-35 in flight the more the more it grows on you 😀

Shows you don't always need to buy a expensive MFH kit to get a nicely detailed model, and some modelling skill of course 😉 😃

Blimey I've had mine 12months and only got as far as the hull, got the Prontos set as well, I must get back to it

Stunning, the detail is extraordinary. You would think it was 1/200 scale

Well pictures on the net seem to show the slide did deploy when the door was opened

I lot of work has been put into that model, and it's a stunner 👍

The body shop clear also seem more resistant to blemishes and polishes than the modelling ones, also decal softener doesn't seem to soften it like hobby ones I have used

No secrets, prep the body to remove any seam lines, a good primer( one that can be sanded) Mr Surfacer 1500 thinned with Mr levelling thinner, check for any defects, correct and reprime. I use 1k pre thinned car body shop clear 1ltr tin, a lot cheaper than hobby specific clear, although it's still too thick for models so thin that down again with MLT. Iwata HP-TH Airbrush Thanks

Even if your in the garage get an extractor, you don't have to spend a fortune a cheap cooker hood and a roll of car body shop filter material will do the job.

You may get smaller stuff that will run between the different voltages but these will mostly be low voltage stuff anyway that requires a voltage regulator to reduce it down, it's the regulator that can do that not the appliance itself. Nearly all appliances that draw high current are made for the specific market they are to be sold in

So are we looking at £250 for kit plus £50 if you want the detail set (which should be in there anyway) £300 is out of my league in the current climate and a lot of others I'd say, especially as Meng's new Mclaren MP4/4 is listed at £150 It was shown on a lot of sites as £199, but those have now changed it to £250 (average)

I don't think that applies since we left the EU, their pretty hot now with anything coming from abroad and into the UK, HMRC
