Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I’m working through my first interior kit (Takom’s Jagdpanther G1) at the moment and learning a lot. The Panther A is my next project (unless I get sidetracked by one of the other kits in my stash) and I want to make sure I’ve got all of the pieces of the puzzle in place before I start the project.

You’re not wrong. Bugger, that complicates things.

Thanks Jack. I might give this a go, but to be honest, my graphic design skills are probably worse than my hand-painting skills. Cheers Rog

Thanks for the info Jack. I’ll check out HADmodels but you’re right, I’ll probably end up having to hand-paint them. I’d better start practicing 😳 Cheers Rog

I’m hoping to build a Normandy Demag Panther A early based on the “Biouze” vehicle of 2.PzD being restored by the Wheatcroft Collection (Fgst.Nr.158134). For reference, I’ve got the Research Squad books detailing the restoration, but I’m looking for some advice on decals. I need to depict the original turret number I02 (which I think is in black numbers and a white outline) overpainted with 231 (in tall white numbers). Does anyone know of any decal sets that might be suitable? I’ve looked at Archer and Star but can’t seem to find a match. I’ve resigned myself to having to hand paint the ink-pot and quill turret emblem. Thanks in advance Rog

Thanks Jeff, I’ll check those links out. I wasn’t sure if AB35L028N was Dragon specific.

I know it’s an oldish kit, but does anyone know whether you can still get replacement metal barrels to fit Tamiya’s late Tiger 1 (35146)? I think Aber’s is 35L028 but I can’t seem to find any UK suppliers that have it. Thanks in advance

I’d recommend getting in touch with Martin at air-craft.net, he’s incredibly helpful and knowledgable.

Thanks for the comprehensive and helpful response... very much appreciated. I guess if the deal looks too good to be true and all that I may take another look at Graphicair.co.uk after all. Regards Roger

Hi all, I'm new to Britmodeller and came to it through this thread. Although I'm not having any difficulties deciding which Iwata to get (HP-CH), I do have a dilemma about where to buy from. Looking on eBay, there is what looks to be a legit outlet, albeit from Macau (Lewis Online Shop) that appears to be selling Iwatas at similar prices to the second-hand ones out there. Has anyone had any dealings with them and if so, are these genuine Iwatas and am I likely to get stung for import duty? I know I'll lose out on the 10 year warranty by not purchasing from the UK, but I wouldn't get the warranty buying second-hand anyway. Any advice would be greatly welcomed. Cheers Roger
