  1. Is there a naughty corner for models? If so the 190D is going there

      Mine is the storage tub in the cupboard of doom.

  2. hmm....lots of kits to build....which one to pick first....maybe i should do a thread with a poll......

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      Well thats easy, that would be all of my kits then as I always made sure I had all the necessary paint. I suppose some of it may have gone not usable since I last looked at 12 months ago, along with the glue....

  3. Missing modelling. At a cross roads. Should I sell all the kits except a couple?

      I considered it, but haven't done anything about it. I don't have enough to make em worth doing anyway.

  6. Is going to see The Martian at the Cinema tonight....I hope the film is as good as Andy Weir's amazing book

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      The film was brilliant....

      I want to see it again and thoroughly recommend it....Some information changes but nothing major....Matt Damon is very funny as Mark Witney....

  7. oh well...i guess my mojo has gone on holiday again....good thing i didn't unpack any of my models or even touch the F-22 kit i bought at eastbourne last week.....

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      Good suggestion, I do have a B-52 that I was going to do as a what if build with 4 engines in RAF service, but I need some more weaponry for it rather than just the nukes the kit comes with....any suggestions ?

  8. Just got back from RIAT, first time in 12 years, top notch. Display of the day; Atlas A400, Tribute to The Few very touching and saying good buy to XH558, very sad but she did look good.

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      Sounds like you had a good time, got any pictures ?

  9. has not done any modelling for ages and don't see any in my future anytime soon.....not even my birthday present from my wife will help sort this loss of mojo out.....status = long time lurker

      I have recently got myself a new computer and playing games on it seems to be more interesting.....i've packed all of my unstarted models up, packed all of my finished ones up from the book case as well in the office and put it all my books back on it....i'm in deep trouble as my wife has bought me a model for my birthday and is talking about not even giving it to me......

  10. is wondering where my mojo has gone......i've now packed up all of my models, paint etc as they haven't been touched for almost 2 months.......

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      probably is that its summer and i'm out on the push bike every weekend with the missus and the fact that i have a new computer as well......

      Rickpadwick1801

  12. good haul at the carboot this morning....but best bit was being given an old Airfix 1:72 Harrier GR7 kit .....has been started but looks like it might be missing a canopy so might only be suitable for parts salvage....

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      Thanks Stu, I'm not actually sure if anything else is missing from it. But yes I would like to complete it as harriers are one of my favourite jets....

  13. Cold War Jets day at Bruntingthorpe - My ears are still ringing. AWESOME.

  15. On my Honeymoon. Southern Spain. Hot weather, good food, good drink and a Hot Wife!!

  16. Hobby Craft. I often seem to be the only person in there looking at the kits (they even have Tamiya...). If anyone else happens along, it's usually a porky middle aged dad in shorts who picks an Airfix box off the shelf, glances at it, grunts and puts it back again. If not it's the same bloke with a kid who says something like, "nah, not that one, too many little bits." An actual model shop seems very far away.

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      I normally find myself as the onle 1 in my local hobby craft's section and unfortunately I am slightly porky but that is changing slowly.....

  22. thinks spray painting with rattle cans is not for me.....

    1. Rickpadwick1801

      Rickpadwick1801

      Thanks Mike, I was outside spraying about 7:30 p.m. last night. I don't have time to paint the kit before I go to work, so I either do it at night or I can't do any work during the week at all.
