Always liked Dujin kits, but, I can't afford the fgmmasters re-issues. I will be happy to seem the released in plastic though.

Think this is a must have for me (In particular the Myanmar colors) as well as the other boxing in Thai colors, the plastic looks a 'bit of a challenge' but, that's half the fun of modelling for me. Well done Ozmod's for this release !

Lovely build Brad, looks terrific in Belgian markings too - More please. Can I tempt you to build an Airfix 1/72 Fairey Battle in Belgian markings to sit along side in the cabinet? -
1/72 - Miles M.57 Aerovan by MikroMir - released
Colin1967 replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
Your welcome ! Probably why I have a large stash of unmade model kits to build.. Well it's a small world, I was in the Hastings area just the other week for work, still pleasant and popular on a nice day. I forgot to mention about the use of model filler, this used to me my nemeses, not anymore, I use Squadron Signal white putty and have found that if you apply it and let it dry, you can sand/smooth it back using a piece of wet n dry paper (wet), it works a treat. I refer to wet n dry paper being used wet as this virtually reduces any nasty dust particles flying around, Good luck with your build. Regards Colin. -
1/72 - de Havilland DH.104 Dove by Kiwi Models
Colin1967 replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
Excellent news, I too thought it was resin, but, will order one when it is available. Thanks Steve. -
1/72 - Miles M.57 Aerovan by MikroMir - released
Colin1967 replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
Isn't that part of the fun of modelling ? It is for me. Re: the bead of seam I would tend to use wet n dry paper on that, a couple of swipes from that (use wet) should eliminate the seam - (not much of a seam on my copy), re: sprue gates I recommend using a razor saw to start with then cut the the remainder with a new blade on your hobby knife. Re: detaching small parts from the sprue, I tend to place a piece of masking tape behind the small item that needs to be removed then cut, the small part should stick to the masking tape and not disappear into the carpet monster, then I put the small items into an old/used model kit box top. The plastic looks soft and easy to work with, when I have finished my current project I will start on my copy. Hope the above advice will help, regards Colin. -

New DP Casper decal Set - Congo 1961-1963 in 1/72

Airfix 1/72 Handley Page 0/400
Colin1967 replied to pheonix's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
That's a wonderfully built and rigged Handley Page 0/400 bomber, wish I had the know how and rigging skills to complete this 'often thought about' Airfix purchase. As a fellow resident of Maidstone, I wonder if you may remember buying Heller (or other) model kits from Hubble & Freeman a few years ago ? -
Quite agree Matt, I prefer very much to brush my models, you can get some good results (As seen by above) I have much success brushing with Humbrol metalcote colours in particular.
-
Looks great to me Matt, all ways pleased to see brush painted models in this day of the airbrush. Regards Colin.
