  1. Great to see them done Ced btw, the specialist spits are not rubbish kits at all, 2014 new tools, not a 1/48er myself but have seen the sprues, looks a stunning kit
  2. Nope, but won't stop me joining anyway, though probably a few weeks in once my 2 remaining made in Britain builds are resolved
  3. Had not known about this kit till I saw one on eBay last week, look forwards to the progress
  4. Fantastic work Paul, like the choice of pilot, doing one of his p-47s for that Gb, so nice to see him also represented here
  5. I now have a kit on the way for this, should be able to get it done in the remaining time
  6. a spit ready for camo, now to decide I want to do one of the two mkii I have decals for, or one of the several mk1's, or indeed buy myself another sheet.
  7. AZ 1/72 MkIXc Stanisław Skalski PFT 145Sqn Decals by Airfix and painted in xtracrylix dark earth mid stone and azure blue
  8. here we go, got the makeshift booth of mine out this morn, but evidently the light is better in the afternoon
  9. get yourself down to the nearest halfords and get a can of their grey primer, xtracrlix are fine if used over it
  10. Looks like I'm not done, just won a Revell hurri IIB
  11. Calling it done, quick pic, got dinner guests, only snapped this as I was closing the upstairs curtains
  12. a good boxart certainly has helped me into the odd impluse purchase, or sowing the seeds for a future purchase, generally rather not have good boxart, makes throwing the box away harder
  13. Used Halfords aluminium in the past but trying out humbrol 11 albeit not as HS in the near future to see how it looks
  14. Number 2 all primed, now do I go for a bob mk1 or a post mk2, not sure I have room on my bob shelf but got plenty of decal options
  15. First one still no closer but 2nd all primed, colour of the primer implies my intentions
  16. my mistake didn't see the date, indeed had changed to QJ, so so far QJ-Z is suggested
  17. GR was 92sqn at the time, no idea which is letter thogh
  18. they look superb ced like the look of those lifecolour paints, certianly do look a good match for the DFS, unlike their own special labeled raf dark green.....
  19. Halfords aluminium or try humbrol 11 spray?

      Halfords gets my vote and I think you get more for your money!

      Agree with the comment re Halfords. Their metallic are very good. However, I have also used the Humbrol Silver/Chrome Silver/Matt Aluminium/Aluminium sprays with good results

  20. I quite like the revell starter brushes, my go to brushes **runs and hides***
  21. First ix not quite done yet, two more spits ready for priming
  22. Anyone with the academy 1/72 bubbletop mind taking a look at the instructions, specifically the bit that retains to the canopy, my one shows the razorback, is there an additional part aside from the two clear buts?
