      This one is great you don't even have to drink it

  10. just printed my first set of homemade decals and I have to say they have come out a treat. my modelling space is now going to be filled with draw after draw now of new ideas for builds

  11. taken over a week to start anything new and it hasn't happened so I guess I will just wait and watch some of the amazing builds by others to give me some inspiration for what ever my next build is

  12. is my guess right that expert choice decal paper is best for inkjet

      Best of luck to you. First thing my father said to my to my husband-to-be was "Is that your car?", just like that, no hi or please to meet you. An while casually gesturing towards him with the pointy end of a butcher's knife. Seems impossible, but it went downhill from that.

  15. Just had an odd thoughtand this is it, do you ever look back to the first picture of a build and think my god I turned this lump of material into the finished article. my wonderful thought of the day or I too tired I over thinking

  16. Finally I have figured out how to use zeros white without it yellowing, this has opened a massive e door now for new builds

      Same,one of the ones I painted today I have had sitting on the bench since October last year

  20. got to give some credit to hiroboy, I put in an order with them on Sunday night and left a review in which I implied about a certain paint colour, the next morning I get an email saying they do the paint but it wasn't put on the website so I phone up to try and add it to my order to which I'm told that I can have it free of charge for reminding them to add it to the website. it all turns up today well packaged, top job hiro boy

  21. if anyone is in or around the Dorset area nearing the end of this coming week you should get yourself to the Bournemouth air festival Thursday through to Sunday, all day long displays and night displays plus a beach assult done by the royal navy every day

  22. Bournemouth wheels festival starts tomorrow and finishes Sunday, I would highly suggest that anyone living in or around Dorset to pop along. loads of cars and a good amount of other bits being done in and around the town

  23. 2 cars stripped back now let's get spraying

  24. finally my first finished kit of 2015

  25. I have found myself starting everything new that comes into our house recently and it's starting to annoy me
