  1. Pete, that was heartbreaking to read - I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope the time comes soon where memories of him bring more smiles than sorrow.
  2. I dunno - I blink and there's another beauty of a model from you. Just gorgeous!
  3. Due to a recent orbit anniversary: Mr. Color Thinners x 2, Mr Color Leveling Thinners, Mr Rapid Thinners x 2. Vallejo Airbrush Thinner, Vallejo Flow Improver. A "High Roller" trigger for the tiny, tiny, tiny Badger Renegade Krome airbrush in the hope my hand will stop cramping the instant I try to use it. Vallejo red, green, yellow, blue and smoke "transparent" colours which turned out to be so pigment-rich I've had to experiment with mixing them with acrylic gloss medium to get them to a see-through state. A bunch of Gunze Mr Metal Color and Mr Super Metallic 2 paints. All the following are 1/48th: Tamiya P-51B Tamiya P-51D Tamiya P-38J Kinetic Dassault Mirage IIIE Kinetic Republic F-84F Thunderstreak
  4. Definitely on my list, if it makes it to the States. My old home town of Hastings has a Shannon class boat, so I'll be making masks ready for when I get the kit.
  5. Four lovely builds, and all epic.
  6. Lovely builds there! So sorry to hear of the loss of Richard - what an intriguing face he had.
  7. Lovely results, Dennis, and it's great to see you building again. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the graft doing its job, and doing it quickly for you!
  8. I knew you would have no problem with this one - you're doing your usual cracking job! You're giving me the confidence I need for my build 😁.
  9. Here's a pretty good article on the subject, even if the advice comes down to "it depends" - at least they're honest about the trial and error aspect of the process. Anyway, it's a start, and I hope it helps: https://www.anycubic.com/blogs/3d-printing-guides/how-long-to-cure-resin-prints
  10. Following along with this one - I have another version of this kit (all greys) and want to see how you handle this one. I have no doubt you'll do it justice.
  11. Lucky Varnish used to be great some years ago, but now - for me - is sufficiently bad that I actually threw it away. Winsor & Newton Galeria Matt varnish is consistent, and thins with water or IPA. Never had a problem with it.
