  1. A great result Chris Building this one st the moment I can definitely attest any fit problems you had were the kit and not you ! Not one of Airfixs better kits. It certainly needs more work than their other recent ones, but you’ve turned out a fine model Bruce
  2. I’m really impressed with this Calum AP and I were looking at it today on the screen and saying what a great scheme it was Bruce
  3. theres plenty of eye catching CAG schemes out there binbrook. Furball and Fightertown being two producers with great sheets Thanks for the kind comment too Bruce
  4. Meng's very nice Super Hornet. I found the model for the most, well detailed, with good fit of parts. The gun muzzle and tail fins can be painted off the model and then simply pushed into place. The cockpit is perhaps a little basic, but was fine for me, building with a closed canopy. The only let down was the decals, the stencilling being just random lines and black instead of the correct grey. Decals are from Afterburner and pylons from Phase Hangar resin A fuller description of the build is detailed in my blog attached to my signature. Thanks for looking Bruce
  5. You've done a great job on that with some nice weathering. Having built the kit myself, aI agree with you its an enjoyable build Bruce
  6. This just looks brilliant Mick . Great modelling and photography. Good luck at QMHE Bruce
  7. Oh that is superb Graeme . Brilliant job. Your exhaust stains are a far better shape than mine too . Absolutely brilliant job . She looks the bizz alright . Colours look spot on Bruce
  8. G’day All I currently have a 48 scale Jag on the bench I’m fiddling with. It is to be finished as an Op Granby jet in desert pink. My question is what colour would the interior of the intake mouths be? dark green/grey as per the original camo, or would they have repainted at least the first couple of feet in the desert pink ? Thanks for any insight Bruce
  9. Thanks for all the kind comments everyone, and for @GRK good luck with yours and I hope we can see it here a little bit of inspiration for you here
  10. Troy has you covered with his answer. If you’re doing JV o Z from the Hasegawa kit , yes, Port only light is correct Bruce
  11. Thanks Troy, although I’m not really happy with my exhaust stain, it doesn’t really follow the airfoil of the wing that well Thanks Shaun
  12. G'Day All Certainly not the easiest model, but Im glad she's now done and residing on my shelf! I've always liked the Tankbuster Hurricane ever since seeing the ancient Monogram kit built to a high standard during my early teens. The model was built pretty well out of the box, although I replaced the cannons with brass tubing. The fit wasn't tooooo bad, but you need to ensure that the casting block is completely removed from the resin wheelbay. Even then there was still some sanding and filling required. All markings were painted on using home made masks from a mate. Stencils were also painted using masks from 1 man Army. Paints were by SMS A fuller description of the build can be found by following the link in my signature block. Roll on the forthcoming Revell Hurricane IIb! Thanks for Looking Bruce
  13. Oh man! your story of your build is what modelling is all about to me . great stuff, and love how your daughter got involved in displaying the model too . Not sure how much you paid for the model, but looks to me like you well and truly got your money’s worth Bruce
