And the decals were in the kit? Rick.

Chaps. Anybody have information on a supplier of decals for any of the A/C working for TFU 1942-1957? I have a list of aircraft, with serial numbers, but am struggling to find decals. I can obviously make them up from various stash decals, but it would be nice if someone had already compiled a selection. The only kit I know of dedicated to Defford is the: S & M Models Code Number: SMK7222 Boeing 247D. This is listed as the "Top Secret Boeing", but the box top doesn't mention the correct DZ203 decals. I'm awaiting the answer from Hannants. Oldmodells did a set for this kit, but they don't seem to list them anymore, again, awaiting a response from them. Any information appreciated. Rick.

Always keep em! Mind you, I always forget what I've kept anyway. HNY! Rick.

I think mine was a generic Chinese thing. I use just a mild detergent for general stuff, and some of the Medea Airbrush Cleaner when I deep cleaned the Iwata CR. I find it's quite good for rejuvenating old tins of enamel paint as well. HTH, Rick.

I've contacted Hannants quite a few times (all for the right reasons..) and have found them very helpful. Just drop them an email, I use: [email protected] I hope we get to the bottom of this as I love some of their colours. Rick.

Vulf Peck. Live at Madison Square garden. Joe Dart on the Joe Dart Music Man. Nice. My lad has the standard Music Man at it sounds gorgeous! Have a look on Yutube. Rick.

Wasn't there different rear panel widths depending on wheel/tyre fit? There's something at the back of my mind about this, but I can't remember where I read it... Rick.

Vote cast! Dug out some IoM stuff to get on with. Rick.

Watching with interest, as me and the Missus are currently sat in the garden trying to design our new garden room/work room etc. Rick.

Hendon it was! Changed quite a bit since my last visit. Well worth the visit. Cheers all. Rick.

I'm down here for "Lost Evenings" till the 20th. Anything model related down here? Anything else worth seeing? Rick.

After contacting Jadlam a new clear sprue arrived safely in the return post. Excellent service, as usual! I also purchased the 3D Kits World cockpit set too. Looking forward to this build! Rick.

The undercarriage legs on mine seem to be fine. I will contact Jadlam about a replacement clear sprue though, I'm not too happy about the cracked side screen. Rick.

Mine look fine, but there's a small crack on one of the side panels. Hmmm. I may try for a replacement, but it'll probably disappear under some Klear. Rick.

Mine was on the mat when I got home! Thanks Jadlam! Rick.

Brilliant Q! This is the reason I hang out on BM! BTW, no idea, never noticed if there's a difference after about 1.2million miles of driving many different cars. But I will say, I tend to change both at the same time anyway and I don't have much success with cheap ones. Rick.

Vallejo is really nice and smooth if used with W&N Flow Improver. It does need a good key though, or it can rub off until fully sealed. I avoid MRP as it's like gnats pee and doesn't cover well. I know that may raise a few hackles, just my own experience with a 1/35 tank. It's fine if airbrushed over a similar colour Tamiya (that's thinned with lacquer thinner). But then you may as well just use Tamiya.... Rick.

BBMF. Left Gloucester about 40mins ago. Sounded wonderful! Rick.

Pick and mix from the vinyl and CD collection!

Visited one in Malvern and two in Cheltenham yesterday. Thankfully vinyl here is very much alive and kicking and the turntable has never not been used! Rick.

Various, Record Store Day! Too much money spent.... Rick.

Interesting reading. I've just checked my purchase history and have seen I hardly ever use Ebay anymore. I guess it's time to move on and cancel my account. PayPal was the only safety net for me (Well, it isn't great, but better than them having my bank details). Thanks for the Heads-up guys, one less thing to worry about. Rick.

Oops....

Nice to meet you Trevor! Rick. Have you mastered yours yet Mike?!

I live in Upton-upon-Severn. Nuff said... Rick.
