Love it just about to start an old matchbox myself the oh58D top marks Rodders

lovely well done an iconic Aeroplane

Both 1/72 Background garden wall 1/1 Rodders

Couple of Army choppers Italeri Sioux & Airfix Lynx Now just need to learn how to weather. Best looked at from 4 feet away Rodders

A brilliant job I do love the way you have weathered it It looks just like the ones at Bovington. Rodders

I will be buying the Typhoon but would not get the 1/48 Vulcan even for free. Horses for courses. I normally do Helicopters and then only in 72nd scale. Not sure to do just the bubble top or buy 2 and door the car door as well. I have never airbrushed anything this big before so looking forward to it. Rodders

Wonder what it will cost? I reckon you could be looking 3 figures But when you work out the cost against hours entertainment it will be good value thats for sure BRING IT ON Rodders

I will get one to do as the aircraft of Wg Cdr R.E.P. Brooker, D.F.C who was the cousin of my wife's friend. Goodness knows where she will put it Rodders

Very nice well done do like the Beaufighter. looking forward to the one at Duxford flying again.

You have just taught this Grandfather (1 2 yr old girl & 1 on the way) to suck eggs Didn't know you could buy white decal for lasers you learn something new everyday. I have only been back to modeling for around 6 months but boy has it changed. The idea of printing your own decals would have been black magic when I gave up It would of course be easy just scan a decal sheet seatbelt in and copy it all around the sheet changing colour would not be hard!! you are defenitly putting me on the track I want to go down. could do a load of lap straps as well Thanks for the info Rodders

Never thought of using a rotring pen. I work in the hospital so always have a roll of micropore in my pocket. Rodders

Decals will do me fine I don't need to super detail as I find that to me it takes a lot of the enjoyment of modelling for me. I just want a decal to do the job. I do use Tamiya tape but find I like decals better. My models are best looked at from 4 ft away Rodders

Does anyone do decal sheets of seat belts? I am not interested in Photo etch for the seat belts on my models since I made some on a Merlin cockpit but the result after much cussing ,feeding the carpet monster & the sheer frustration of small parts I can hardly see was not what I had hoped for .After all this work the the result was "lost" under the kit transparency. I do notice that some kits supply the seat belts on the kit decals and for what I do this is fine but I am looking for a sheet that has several items on it maybe in different colours . I have thought of having a go with home made decals but my printer is a colour laser and wont do white. Any help in pointing me in the right direction gratefully received.. Rodders

This is a masterclass in modelling well done. Rodders

Super build well done. Rodders

lovely build pat yourself on your back. Rodders

Lovely build well done . (I notice the chocolate bar is gone with just the wrapping remaining! ) Rodders

yes its there and the lightning both very nice kits Rodders

Jap paint tended to wear quickly so I think the finish is good Rodders

Quick build for £2.99 no after market or anything just started dry fitting and before you know it out pops a sea fury. Decals are the ones in the PM kit Not worried about the accuracy of the kit just enjoyed building it and seeing the result. Rodders

beautiful job Rodders

What about an Albercore now that would be a kit that sells Rodders

Looking forward to this build Rodders

I love it Rodders

IIRC the Matchbox one can be made in to the Aussie navy aircraft which is similar to the MK1 It has both types of noses Rodders
