MiG-21 F-13 Red Eagles YF-110B
kiwitrogg replied to paulsbrown's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Yeah, like's already been said.....'that's a quick build?!?'........wow ! They're both great, well done. And as for the back story; I've never heard of this before and so I've managed to get hold of a copy of the book for a squiz. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Gaz- 14 replies

Outstanding ! The weathering and finish it just right for my tastes, and unless that hand is exceptionally small then it gives a good idea of what I've got to look forward to in my stash, It's rather large aye ! Well done Gaz

Yup, I agree. One of the reasons I don't even do aircraft in flight. Gaz -
Churchill Mk.III AFV Club 1/35th
kiwitrogg replied to diablo rsv's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
That's just brilliant in every way. I love it. I think I'll just quietly meander back to my comfort zone in the Aircraft section and stay over there. Well done. Cheers Gaz -
Nice conversion, very well executed. Love the paint finish. And it's a Brawdy kite as well Cheers Gaz

1/48th Boeing Fortress MkI (B-17C) Koster/Revell
kiwitrogg replied to tomprobert's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Outstanding. I've got two later model British B-17s i the pipeline and came across pictures of this version during my research a while back.......I think you've absolutely nailed it! A superb build of a pretty rare subject. Love it Cheers Gaz- 20 replies

1/72 Hasegawa RNZAF P3K2 Orion
kiwitrogg replied to JBallsfromNZ's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Sweet build ! I'm no expert on the Onion but she looks mighty fine to me. I did look at getting myself one last year and building it up in the bomber role with pylons/bombs under the outer wings. Too many other projects on the go though. But now that I've seen yours I might have to have another look at it. Well done. Cheers Gaz -

Tamiya Churchill Mk VII in 1/35th Scale.
kiwitrogg replied to Alex Gordon's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
A typically unglamarous and brutish looking British tank aye........nicely build though. The shovels caught my eye even before I saw the close-up pick. It's the little things. Looks cool, well done. Cheers Gaz -
Whoa, I obviously missed this first time around. That's pretty special, and just goes to show how restrained weathering can be quite effective in itself. Excellent skills on show. Well done Cheers Gaz

Really nice job. A lot of work has gone into that and it shows..... and it looks means as well! Cheers Gaz

Hi Ernst Very nice, I like the weathering and your mention of soap is very interesting; I must give it a try. Being new to these tank things, I haven't seen or heard of these before. I'll have to do a bit of reading. Cheers Gaz

Coiled Springs (RAF Police Dog Handlers)
kiwitrogg replied to Matt P's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
I'm not sure I ever saw one of their Landies anything less than super shiny unless their new 18yr old Acting Cpl had taken it accidentally off road Great scene, great build. Love it ! Great comments also. Cheers Gaz -
1/35 Matilda MkIII/IV. Tamiya (35300)
kiwitrogg replied to kiwitrogg's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Thanks Pete. Might be time to grab yourself another lit and have a go. A ton of patience and a few rolls of masking tape is all you need. Besides, mud covers all Thanks Stix, much appreciated Thanks Tony Thanks Nurwin. I did think of visiting Bovington last year when we were back in Blighty for couple of weeks. It was too far out of our way unfortunately. As I mentioned above, I've been watching Tank Chats by The Tank Museum on Youtube. They've also put together a series of videos ,that I'm now watching, about the rebuild of the Matilda. I'm finding it very interesting, but I do wish I'd found it earlier. I like to have a bit of understanding about the subject that I'm building. I'm ok with aircraft but I know virtually nothing about tanks it seems Cheers All Gaz -
Yes, well that's what we all say in response to the inevitable grilling from SWMBO, you're getting into the groove quite well already Welcome, from another 🏴 born. Cheers Gaz

RF-4C Phantom, RAF Alconbury 1982
kiwitrogg replied to Nev's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Sweet phantoms, and 2 of then in schemes that I've got planned (USAF and Israel). It's going to be a good looking shelf from any distance. Cheers Gaz -
Meteor U.16 WK800 RAE Llanbedr 1/48
kiwitrogg replied to petetasker's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Superb, and very colourful. Like has already been said, I too used to ignore these older types for the more 'exciting' ones in grey/green.......My mistake. I think I might have to look at doing something along these lines. Well done ! Cheers Gaz- 34 replies

Definitely a case of less is more with the colours I reckon. I'd normally go for the more colourful and complicated schemes for interest, but I'm really liking this. It certainly shows the modelling skills. Nice one. Cheers Gaz

I'd call that a very successful end to what must have been an 'interesting' at times project. It looks great, well done. Cheers Gaz- 39 replies

1/12 Tamiya Honda CB750F Custom Tuned
kiwitrogg replied to rs2man's topic in Ready For Inspection - Vehicles
Nice ! I really should start building bikes. Good choice on the colour, I used to have a CB750 (white), and a 250 (silver). The white one looked way better (except for the massive fairing it sported). Cheers Gaz
