  1. Double chips, fried egg
  2. Lightly boiled and served
  3. Not the Ants again? 🐜
  4. Oddball was about twenty years ahead of his time. But, What a great character.
  5. I believe I read that Patton used to have Combat soldiers put on a charge for not wearing ties!
  6. I've just used the primer as DSG before now. A quick smooth down with fine micromesh and on with the green! Your paint is looking good, Very smooth.
  7. It looks perfect to me. Hunters look best in fresh gloss or well used like this. This one has certainly done it's time.
  8. I've got some Tamiya Mr Frog on the way from Hannants.... (Be sure to let me know when you think this is getting too silly)
  9. Welcome Rando. That's a good wide range of interest's so you should find plenty to keep you interested on here. There's a lifeguard on duty, so just dive in!
  10. I'm with you there. I've always thought of ANZAC troops as brave fighters. And wasn't it Rommel who said the best Army would have German officers and British troops? I never did have much regard for the American Generals . Monty did well at Alamein, but Market Garden not so much. BTW, one of the best Bosses I had in the RAF was a WRAF officer. She went on to Air Vice Marshal rank
  11. Good to see this one back in work. You've added some great detail. Those red front seats look like real vinyl. Probably the best I've seen in a very long time. The figure looks just right.
  12. I've found that the frogs won't stay still long enough for the glue to set.
  13. Or, You could follow my usual method for this sort of thing. Build up a basic shape from plastic card, and just use a thin layer of milliwassname sanded to final shape. It works out faster and cheaper (suits me).
  14. I just use cheap brushes. The free ones that came with the Airfix kits are good enough for me and acrylics. Humbrol enamels too. I clean the Acrylic off with car screen wash. Me? cheap? Yep.
  15. And the short term. get that window open. Nasty stuff that we used to use for cleaning Aircraft parts. Oh, and don't get it on your skin either.
  16. A cracking result, John. I can vouch for the quality in real life too, having seen it last week.
  17. It works for me. I remember your previous camera ship too. I've had that problem for years. Got boxes of interesting shapes. There's no cure. I've tried pills, yoga, yoghurt, Even the chanting and muttering is useless.
  18. We're not mean, Just careful. (I was born there, BTW)
