    OK, so you've provided some photos of the real tank on a range in Russia, so how about some shots of your finished model? Oh, hold on a minute..... This is excellent work, my friend. Cheers for sharing with us. Chris.

    This is possibly the silliest thing I have EVER read! Is it April 1st already? I think they are two weeks early...... Chris.

    Hi, Anthony. As much as I admire the original movie, I simply refuse to see it again until they release the "Ethel the Tea-Lady" cut, which I've been told will come out in 2016. Apparently, it has an extra 1.7 seconds of previously-unseen footage in it...! Cheers. Chris.

    Hi, Ben. Excellent work there, mate. I'm really looking forward to seeing how she ultimately turns out. Cheers. Chris.

    Lovely stuff. Got a couple of Xenomorph kits in the stash-erroo, but I have never got anywhere near building one.... Thanks very much for sharing. Chris.

    Lovely stuff! Could have flown straight out of one of the films.... Thanks for sharing. Chris.

    Excellent, definitive, superb, brilliant, award-winning work there! I would pay a lot of money to have even half of your painting-skills.... Cheers for sharing. Chris.

    Hi, bentwaters. Yep, that handsome, athletic devil was me! Video didn't come out quite as I was hoping, but is watchable. The stuff I shot at the walk-around is a mess, but I might edit it down to something a bit more presentable. Cheers. Chris.

    I really agree... it's a great addition to the line-up. Having said that, I have a bit of a feeling of foreboding about this year (yep, I know it's very early days still). What does anyone else think? Chris.

    I videoed the talk on Sunday... anyone want a DVD copy (for the cost of postage?)...... Cheers. Chris.

    I've seen the Academy one on E-Bay once or twice in the last year. If I remember correctly, the last one went for around £60 plus the postage. You never know...... Chris.

    Lovely stuff on all three characters. Death is very menacing indeed (just as he should be). Thanks very much for sharing. Chris.

    Just a quick reminder, folks. This is happening tomorrow. Very well worth checking it out.... Chris.

    All I could suggest is... give it a try. Just put a dab of the Tamiya acrylic on some scrap plastic and mix with the other paints to see what happens. I have a feeling the answer could be "no", however. Chris.

    Hello, from the UK. I didn't put that in as a criticism of the shipping time.... I actually thought that was fairly quick! Chris.

    I also have a vinyl kit (uggh!) of Judge Death. I think I will be doing him when my painting skills have got a great deal better.... Cheers. Chris.

    I am (kinda) building Judge Dredd at the moment. The film was absolute dog's eggs, but I do like the look of this figure. I think the kit should look scrub up very nicely. I will be following you efforts very closely. Cheers. Chris.

    Evening, All. I recently bought several Videoaviation resin bits-and-pieces. I entirely agree with the comments made above. Very nice details, well-moulded, good boxes / presentation and a bit cheaper than some resin producers we could mention. The shipping charge from Italy was pretty darn reasonable and the items took about 2.5 weeks to arrive on my UK doorstep. Very much recommended. Cheers. Chris.

    Excellent, superb and lovely-to-look-at. I wish I had even half of your skill, my friend. Thank you for sharing. Chris.

    Afternoon, All. Just in case folks were not aware.... This Sunday (1st March), Colonel Rich Graham (US Air-force, Retired) will be giving a talk about his flying career at Duxford Museum. In the afternoon, he will be giving a "walk-around" tour of the aircraft he flew from Mildenhall airbase. I have been a couple of times and it's WELL worth going, if you are able. Normal museum admission charges apply. Cheers Chris.

    Morning, All. I was chatting to a fella from the Duxford Military Vehicle Preservation Society and he said that BAE Systems sold this to the museum for the very reasonable sum of £1! And that included the delivery. He said that the gun breeches have been removed - for obvious reasons - and that the radar system was great at tracking air-liners in the local area. Cheers. Chris.

    That looks very cool, indeed, my friend. I had this kit a few years ago, but the build looked to be more than I really wanted to commit to (I know, I'm a wuss....!) Thanks very much for sharing. Your weathering skills are very impressive. Keep up the good work. Chris.

    A great tribute to your building & painting skills, my friend. It's great to see a famous figure kit that really looks like the character. Thanks for sharing with us. Chris.

    Hi, Pittnuma. Just in case you've not tried this already..... It would be worth you keeping an eye on E-Bay for 1/16th scale tank parts. To give you an example, I recently bought a 1/16 Sherman turret for less than 10 quid on the 'Bay (looks to be in new condition). It could prove a cheaper source of the bits that you're looking for. If I remember correctly, there was a King Tiger upper hull on recently for less than 20 quid. Cheers. Chris.

    Top-of-the-range building and painting skills on display here, my friend. I would pay good money to have even half your ability for building models. Many thanks for sharing. Chris.
