  1. Thanks guys, sorry for delay in replying. I decided to order the Eduard Hellcat MK.I/II dual combo as for the 190, not sure what to do I having problems locating Hase kit, Found the Tamiya A-8/R-2 but that's more expensive than the Eduard re-release Weekend Edition. I don't normally have WW2 planes open as you don't see much, so all the bits that's included in the standard kit would be completely wasted.
  2. Not sure if this has been posted. Italeri 1/32 F-35A .
  3. I was looking at getting a Hellcat and a FW 190 A8 what are the best options in 1/48? For the Hellcat I can't make my mind up between a FAA or USN. But as most of my WW2 collection is both German and British I am leaning towards the FAA. I saw that you can get the Eduard Hellcat for as little as £12 but I am not sure on this kit.
  4. I am wanting to print some decals I downloaded from Kingsway models for my 1/24 Revell Routemaster. He says "You'll need to download and print to the correct ratio" . Can anyone help with this, I am not sure what he means by the correct ratio, so can anyone help me with what the correct ratio is for 1/24.
  5. I found some blinds and stuff to download from Kingsway for 1/24 it just says I need to print in the right ratio does anyone know what this is or how?
  6. Does anyone know where I can get destination decals for the Revell 1/24 Routemaster? The other half came out spare room with a big brown box which apparently put the kit in due to the rubbish revel box. So long story short I thought I pick up the model again. I want to do the Route 11 which they call the heritage route correct?
  7. I have decided to make the move to Airbrush, yes I am scared about it because I am not sure how best to proceed with mixing and Cleaning the airbrush. I didn't go expensive right now it's just one of those cheap sets off of EBay for like £35. I figured the cheap set as if I mess up the airbrush it wont cost much to replace. Anyway so any beginner tips you can give would be great. Paint's I use are MR Hobby Aqueous Tamiya Xtracrylic Humbrol and Revell if the need is great. I know if I search on google I can find loads of info on how to but I have followed guides on google and YouTube before and they turned out to be complete waste of time because they use either stuff I can't get hold of or really expensive items.
  8. Can someone tell me the best way to get the vinyl tubes for Tamiya Bikes to stick? I tried Tamiya extra thin, Revell Professional stuff, thin super glue and medium super glue but they never seem to stay put. It's driving me nuts. Anyone have any advice on this?
  9. Couple of early birthday gifts: Tamiya 1/12 Ducati 1199 Panigale S Tamiya 1/12 Kawasaki ZZR1400 Tamiya 1/12 Yamaha YZF-R1 Taira Racing
  10. Or if you can get Humbrol Gloss White Spray can, it goes on smooth and looks perfect, that's what I use for white areas such as air intakes wheel wells, even the bottom half for a FG.1 Phantom.
  11. I found Hiroboy and the Zero Paints, which do a lot of paint I could use for a few vehicle kits I have, but as I don't have an airbrush due to family having breathing problems I have to stick with the hairy stick. Can anyone tell me if the Zero Paints are ok to brush paint? I don't want to spend the money and find out that they are no good for brushes as they are not cheap paint.
  12. Has anyone brought from http://www.mgmouldings.co.uk/iveco.htm I ordered the Iveco RHD set and I keep emailing to find out about my order but since I paid I have had no replies. Anyone else used them?
  13. Thanks Willie, I have a look at the Honda paint but I think I might go with the TS-94 option.
  14. Hey guys/Gals, I am in need of some more help, i am doing a Honda CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird. I want to do it in the Mute Black Metallic, now Tamiya say to mix it which I am never any good at, I went to my local Halfords and they have never heard of it. So could I get away with using a standard Black Metallic? Or do you peeps know of a place where I can get the paint?
  15. Where can one get UK number plate decals for Motorbikes? 1/12th scale?
  16. Where did you get the CR7 Rocket Pods? I have MA retirement decals, I might even have Michelle somewhere as I was going to do that but changed my mind. I have a hunt around, if I find them they are yours.
  17. Whats the best way to make a trench in 1/35? I was planning a British push with a tank and soldiers with Germans in the trench. Just not sure how to create the trench.
  18. Could I get away with using WW1 belts for rear two seats?
  19. I am not sure if the FAA used the same as RAF? But early belts are Sutton?
  20. Can someone tell me what kind of seatbelts the swordfish MK.1 used around 40-41?
