  1. Count me in too. Probably the only plane I've ever built or will build is a 'Cat.
  2. OUTLAWWWWW. Such a nice kit that isn't built to often. The racing ain't half bad either, for roundy roundy stuff.
  3. Email sent Paul. Let me know what else you may need. Cheers, Sean
  4. Paul, any chance you could print a set of decals up if I shoot you a jpeg over. If you can help I'll pass over the measurements and file. Cheers, Sean
  5. Count me in. Have any amount of stuff here, might even try a wingy thing.
  6. Count me in, have a few lying here that I've been planning on doing
  7. Would recommend you get them Viper, real nice easy build to get rid of the old modellers block. The wheel width is 10mm.
  8. Based on the photo's and comments here and the fact that I haven't actually built anything in about 8 months I picked up these 2 little beauties earlier to break myself back in: As the boss man has already got a little review of the DBR9 going I plumped for the Jag. As a comparison I pulled out the 1:24 Renaissance DBR9 I have here. As is obvious these are a rather compact little offering, but none the less have a surprising level of detail. The proportions of the Aston sit pretty well in comparison to the larger and dearer option (see north of £100). Having nothing to compare the Jag too I can't comment on the accuracy of the mould, but it looks pretty. As per Mike's review of the Aston interior the Jag suffers from the same problems. Pin marks are prevalant on the floor pan and seat but should be easily wiped out by a modeller of modest skill (that's me then). The suspension although simplistic is an ingenious touch and falls together easily. The body shell only really has 2 major mould lines over the front arches, but 2 minutes with 1200 grit wet and dry sorted that. The only other part that needed attention was the flow marks at the rear arches, but that's me just being picky. The tyres on the other hand required 180 grit to get rid of the mould line that runs round the centre, but as is obvious to all car modellers who have built a resin kit this is no different to usual. So far about 20 minutes work has the shell and major parts ready for some primer. For the sum of £9 each I can live with the pin marks and recommend this kit to anyone who cares to ask.
  9. If you want rid of the trailer and car out of the kit, I'll be glad to take them off your hands.
  10. Shows just how strong these are built.
  11. Think I'll watch this one, been toying with the idea of doing the 13th company for a while now.
  12. Awesome is not an awesome enough word to describe how awesome this is!
  13. I'll go with HMS Bellerophon. Was gonna plump for one of the Queen Elizabeth class, but Bellerophon just sounds so much cooler.
  14. I'll counter both claims with Bridget Regan. For those that don't know she's the babe in Legend of the Seeker.
  15. Count me in too. Got a whole heap of 40k stuff to build. Might even attempt the Millennium Falcon kit I have kicking about too.
  16. I'll have a bash also. Have a few trucks kicking about.
  17. I've used both dot 4 brake fluid and oven cleaner with success. Both will fog the clear parts if they aren't removed first though
  18. Let me know. If I start now I might just squeak in at the end.
  19. Well done to all. Thanks to Ian and Keef for the build even though I missed the finish again!
  20. Nice one Steve, congrats. I may join in on this one depending on how things go.
  21. And we're off and running. Times updated here all weekend: RAC times Watch out for car number 4, the man's a loon. Current British C2 and Junior rally champ.
  22. I've took a wheel off on a sqr > tgtns. Hope I don't end up OTL.
  23. Well after Mike's hiring of non-union rodents and the subsequent revolt by the masses that closed the site for a couple of days I had to resort to filling my time playing Dirt 2 on the Xbox360. This has caused another rethink and the resurrection of an idea I've had for a few years. I now plan on building this beast: This is the 330bhp monster that the legend Colin McRae had specially built by DJM. The car has full independent suspension all round so this is proving the first challenge. It is also a right hooker where as the RoG kit is LHD. Decals will also have to be home made. Pictures to follow on Monday.
  24. Still have a lot of me old Space Wolves figs. Find these a good distraction when the old modellers block sets in as you can just throw paint at 'em how you like. If you check out the Bolter and Chainsword site also they have a pretty good how to section for painting most of the GW stuff.
