    Had a set of decals from the old conversion from way back when matchbox issued the OH-58D so I decied to use them on an Italeri early kiowa converted Lucky that I tried the decals first as they did Novo on me so after 7 coats of liquid decals they just about worked Look from 5 ft away for best results Rodders

    I have the opposite problem in the paint dries in the nozzle I have some model air retarder but keep forgetting to use the stuff. Hope you sort your problem out soon. Rodders

    I think the AEW3 was a pretty aircraft I have just started modelling in 1/48 scale so would like to have a kit of one. It appears that Classic Airframes was released in the past see the above post where it has been built Rodders

    Beautiful build super finish congratulations. Did it come with decals or did you have to make your own. Rodders

    Glue and Glaze is wonderful stuff I bought some when I got back into modelling and can highly recommend it. Rodders

    YOU ARE RIGHT Just floated off the RAF and it came off in one piece and was able to stick it to a piece of card Will email Airfix to offer apologies Rodders

    Airfix reply Dear Sir Thank you for your e-mail. Sorry we do not have the new A55307 decals available. Thank you Regards Airfix spares.

    If the whole batch is the same then quality control needs looking at. Yes it is easy to put on some liquid decal I will more than likely do it as a grey whale seems a shame that the kit is spoilt by the decals especially as I cannot see this aircraft and scheme being done again by after market manufactures May even convert it to an HAS2 who knows Rodders

    I have purchased the Sea King mk3 and have found that the decals are not fully"varnished" See picture below. Is mine a one off or is a fault on them all like the canopy was on the 1/24 Typhoon. The areas are marked I dont want to soak them off to find I have problems if anyone has the same kit can they have a look to see if theres has the varnish missing also. No point asking Airfix for new if they are all the same. Area marked is where there in no varnish. That said I have a spare old airfix mk3 set 2 sets of modeldecals with a yellow and a grey falklands A/C and the modelart set so it isnt that big a problem Sorry for the poor quality of picture and on a slant but I know that britmodeller dont like pictures that can be used to make copies Rodders

    I was wondering if it was possiabe to use a genuine badger paint head and needle in a copy airbrush that is on sale on ebay. This also goes for all the different makes that are copied I have a badger 150 with 2 heads I was just wondering if it was worth buying one of the copies to use the body to save the messing about of head changing.

    Many years ago one summer evening waiting for my father who was a chargehand at the flight shed I saw a tractor driver bring a sea king and a lynx back from having compass swings. He was pulling the Seaking whilst pushing the lynx. Strictly aginst the rules for sure but he did it Rodders

    10 out of 10 Great build Rodders
  25. Rodders154
    Who would believe that that was the Matchbox kit. I remember many many years ago I changed the canopy as I thought that it looked a bit flat but yours look fine. Well done Rodders
