1/350 HMCS Regina (Halifax Class Frigate) 2021
Murdo replied to JohnWS's topic in Work in Progress - Maritime
Just found this build, can't believe I've missed it. Read it from start to now. Absolutely incredible work! Love the masts and the RHIB, that really is amazing! Ach, I'd better stop there or I'll just start gushing and embarrass meself. Following. -
There is just so much cracking work and cracking thought and cracking detail here that your build is just... um.. Cracking! um, sorry. Loving this! The blether is good too. I seriously hope this turns out better than you expected! And, I think it will!

Royal Aircraft Factory Fe2b in 1/144
Murdo replied to Putty Animal's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Great to see this wee, absolute beauty back on the production line! You've shown incredible skill & ingenuity and I've learned a lot from what you're doing here. I love these wee 1/144 planes (fighters / small military transports, not tubeliners) and I'm building quite a collection which includes an Airco DH.2 If I can learn to scratch build what I want then even better although I've had quite a fight with a 1/144 Valom Sopwith Pup using PE struts and Ushci thread. The superglue just isn't strong enough to hold the struts. I think I'll try your vaping wire method.- 274 replies

Supermarine S.5 Scratchbuild in 1/144
Murdo replied to Putty Animal's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
A beauty! An absolute cracker! You should be very proud of that! I love these wee 1/144 aircraft. -
Been to both Stranraer and West Freugh several times. West Freugh, in particular, is a long way from anywhere.

Eh? You're a bad man!

If you mean the two very slight paint ridges on the middle part of the bridge, perhaps some gentle sanding with a buffing stick will sort it? Until you mentioned it I hadn't noticed it... And even then I had to look hard to see the problem. Don't be too hard on yourself. Love the 1:1 boat!!!

Hogwarts Express, Scratchbuild, 1/48 Scale
Murdo replied to Bandsaw Steve's topic in Work In Progress - Vehicles
Try dangling them on fibre optic cable instead of wire? 0.50mm or 0.75mm might do the job. Unfortunately I won't get near my modelling stuff for another few weeks so can't advise on the diameter but it is extremely clear and hides well. I would advise against trying to light the Dementors & FO cable with LEDs as that leads to another well of light darkness.- 387 replies

Do you accept an insane and compulsive model maker in your community?
Murdo replied to Snafu35's topic in New Members
Welcome to the site and you have some seriously nice models / dioramas there! -
I bought a Valom 1:144 Sopwith Pup - dual combo last July from a site. On opening the sealed pack (very carefully as I knew there was tiny PE in it) I found that the PE was missing. As the PE was for the undercarriage and struts it would be sorely missed. I emailed Václav at www.valom.net. In a very quick return email he apologised and said a new PE set would be dispatched the next day. Sure enough, about a week later a new PE fret arrived in the post from the Czech Republic. Sometimes it really is worth contacting the manufacturer and the Valom response was superb!!! Rigging the wee beggar in 1/144 has been a different matter...
