  4. Ian that looks brilliant, i well remember standing on tip toe on the Queens building at Heathrow trying to get the registration of a super VC10 in this scheme, oh the memories seems like yesterday, did Concorde ever fly in these colours !! ALB Jim
  5. Nice job Ratch, are you running out of Airfix kits yet, how do you go about painting the figures, must be hard on the Mince pies(eyes). Thanks for sharing ALB Jim
  6. Thanks Tony, will remember about the decals when i get round to build mine ATB Jim
  7. That,s a cracking build there Tony, you've done a really nice job on her, did the decals settle down ok or did you have to struggle with them, have had some problems with Tamiya decals recently took lot fo Micro Sol and Set to get them to settle down Nice build ATB Jim
  8. Gorby Absolutely stunning, have looked through the pictures a couple of times and see something else i have missed, the bed packs look like mine did during training till i learnt the secret, get the guy who was good at doing bed packs, slip him a fiver to do yours and sleep in a sleeping bag. Simples ALB Jim

  10. Stefan I too have just read through all your posts and am amazed at the level of detail and scratch building you are doing, please carry on posting as it is inspiring to see how you get round the problems you encounter, i used to work on the railways a long time ago, not on steam but Diesel powered locomotives, sometimes wish i had stayed on the railways. Once again good luck and will be watching closely. Jim

  14. Peter, great progress, quick question, when you use CA/Talcumpowder, do you add the powder to the glue before you put on the model, or do you put the glue on the fuselage then add the powder, sorry if its a stupid question, would like to try it out some time on my DH88. ATB Jim
