Future Decal Release from Fantasy Printshop
McYellowbelly replied to Jon Freeman's topic in fantasy Printshop
I'd love to see these decals released in 1/144th, if not all the subjects, then a good few Hopefully the Revell Hunter will get a re-release, plus all the lovely Retrokit Hunter bits available Ooooh...the possibilities -
$400!! Sold mine recently for £25 posted! Hmmm....maybe I boo-boo'd Was a nice kit, all the scroll work was chromed. Got mine from Comet Miniatures at Telford a few years back
-
Prime it with Halfords primer, then wet sand it back using 1000grit paper. When you reach metal, most of the pits should be filled, what still remain, use Milliput or Squadron, then repeat. For a 1/144th C47, look for the Roden kit, or the Minicraft one

Nah...it's the Falklands special 1/48th Black Buck set....a Vulcan and Victor in one box....it's true....'the voices told me'

There was a kit available, I had one and sold it on here. Think it was by Wave and 1/24 scale
-
If the trailing edge is complete, but just bent, try flat nosed pliers, or a hard flat surface and some gentle thumb pressure. White metal used in wargames models is quite forgiving if you are gentle. As for the pitted surface, either milliput, which I have used previously heavily thinned with water to fill small hole, or even Squadron White putty Thick acrylic paint can work to fill small holes and dries quickly

Sea Kings out and about in Cornwall
McYellowbelly replied to Evalman's topic in Aviation Photography
Superb pics. I never seem to have the camera to hand when we get low Sea Kings over practicing with the local Mountain Rescue. Very inspiring.......now where did I put my Sweet Sea King?? -

Anyone else heard the rumor of an Airfix Shackleton?
McYellowbelly replied to Jennings Heilig's topic in Aircraft Cold War
My sources( voices in my head!) have 100% confirmed that after the Shackleton kit is released( covering all variants and all marking options) Airfix are starting work on their 35 year anniversary of the Falklands range. This will include a 48th Vulcan and Victor in a double boxing( only available that way) and a limited edition 'Black Buck Special' containing kits of all the aircraft that took part in the Black Buck raid, in 1/48th. It's all true.....the voices told me so! -

McYellowbelly replied to Jennings Heilig's topic in Aircraft Cold War
Someone told me, that someone told them, that they overheard a phonecall through a closed door that it's the start of a 1/144th range of British bombers. Or did I just imagine it? -
Lovely work, seatbelts are great! If you don't want the cats, i've a use for them( don't ask!) Keep the 144th stuff coming

Looking superb. Might have to dig another one of mine out soon

This same seller is the one that sold me a resin 144th Nimrod, which looked very similar to another manufacturers one....but quite poorly cast and covered in bubbles. He has also listed other 144th aircraft which 'seem' to be very similar to built up vacforms that are then moulded.....or resin kits that 'clone themselves' I would think this is related to the Aeroclub one in some way!
