  1. Hi all. It's been over a month since I last picked this up, but with a couple of other completions in the meantime, the C-47 is now top of my 'to do' pile. All parts have been cleaned up and assembled (the props and u/c's are still loose), and I'm ready to paint. Not surprisingly, I have indeed managed to knock off the two top antennae, but luckily the bits underneath are still hanging in there Cheers
  2. CA works really well on resin (epoxy probably does too), provided you've removed any residual release agent/grease first. A gentle scrub in warm soapy water should do it. Cheers
  3. That's really nice Craig. I hope Airfix sort you out OK with the canopy.
  4. A great choice Mark and good luck with your new cockpit glazing. By chance I was watching a video on Imperial Airways yesterday and the local logistics required to allow these planes to serve the far reaches of the British Empire were mind blowing! Cheers
  5. A fabulous choice James. I know they're not relevant to your build, but I'm loving those enormous skylights on the bomber version Cheers
  6. F153 - 1/72 Miles Magister (converted to Mk.1) This represents an early Mk.1 Magister, used for aerobatics at the Central Flying School in 1937. It utilises aftermarket conversion parts and decals by LF Models. The Build Thread is here, if you would like to see the surgery ! Cheers
  7. Thank you @AdrianMF, @Johnson and @Rabbit Leader Earlier this morning I declared this one finished (notwithstanding the incorrectly shaped windscreens ). As I've mentioned before, I was expecting this build to be OOB with just a fancy paint job and a few aftermarket decals. How wrong that proved to be! Nevertheless, I really enjoyed it and appreciated all the help and support from fellow BMers . Thanks again to @JOCKNEY and @Rabbit Leader for hosting this great GB. Cheers
  8. My mid-70s re-issue still requires you to cut the numbers from the instruction sheet. I'll have to find an alternative and luckily 1/32 appears to be a favourite of the slot-racing fraternity. Hopefully I'll find some suitable aftermarket decals there. Cheers
