Andy J

Looks fantastic Alistair, great work mate .

You already know my thoughts on your build Alistair and what a cracker this will be when finished

Hi Alistair I've just read through your build thread and I have to say...wow....what an absolutely stunning build this is...I simply adore how this aircraft looks...the combination of camo scheme plus the invasion stripes is spectacular....jeez I'll have to build this subject in the future

Hmm is that a challenge I see before me

Glad I had the satin finish then Keith

Subtle is my middle name Chris . Mrs J says that there's never a dull moment in our house and I think that's a compliment

I actually got it mixed professionally it's bang on Spitfire sky . Infact I like it so much....yep....I've painted the kitchen with it as well Needless to say Mrs J has now confiscated the tin but once I've done the weathering and panel wash I reckon it will look awesome

I'm doing ok thanks Chris still busy with the DIY but the list of things to do is getting smaller by the day . The Whirlwind is sitting patiently in the hanger and I will definitely be finishing it off as soon as I make a return to the bench . I've been using my aircraft builds as a source of inspiration for my DIY projects as can be seen in the pic below.....yes that is indeed the same colour as the tail band on my Spitfire....good old Sky Looks rather splendid methinks

Never fear Andy J is here.....I have a 109E going spare Chris it's yours whenever you are ready....see i knew that would cheer you up

Beautiful work looks just right to me, well done

That needs a stug to give it a good flattening mate

The grey/brown camo scheme is very interesting Stef....I can see myself adding one of those to my collection

Hiya Keith found them on ebay mate just search Tamiya polishing compound and up they pop. UK seller expected 13th-15th June from Manchester

In fairness i don't think £22 for all three compounds inc delivery is to harsh

That's a superb beetle Jeroen well done with the black paint as it's not the easiest colour to spray well.I have never polished any of my builds but I may have to invest in some of these Tamiya compounds they look like a decent product
