  2. Some more news on the 2 MZ in the Northeast the Metro Centre shop closes on Thurs 12 Sept and the Newcastle shop on Sat 14 Sept. AWF10 you mention you used to go to a Model Shop in Grainger Market was it by any chance callled The Model House ? You also mention the one in the Med Village Metro Centre which was Metro Models? I was the shop manager at The Model House from opening till I left after a year and moved to Clayton Models on (would you believe) on Clayton Street. I also work for the owner of Metro Models on a Saturday and opening the shop on Sunday on the lead up to Christmas. Cheers Andy
  3. Very nice build and the usual cracking finish Arkady I have those 2 sets of those barrels in the stash to to finish a couple of the kits does give me the temptation to do them. Cheers Andy
  4. Hi Mike The ones I use are the OLFA P-cutter and Squadron scriber. There is also a one made by Radu I would say to check out Radu's website. Hope that helps Cheers Andy
  5. Hi ferrari_boy12 First you need to degrease the resin parts by washing in washing up liquid this gets rid of any mould release agents the Manufacturer has used when you wash the use luke warm water. Then let the parts air dry. Yes its ok to use Tamiya primer but apply it in mist coats till you are happy with the coverage. Glues use either medium or thin super glue. Apply them with a tool made from a darning needle. To make this push the point into a piece of wood or balsa dowel about 50mm long so you have the head part where the thread would go sticking out about 30mm. If you have a mini drill with a cutting disc cut the needle so you have half of the eye left. If you don't have a mini drill it can be done with a good diamond file. If you need any more help PM me and I'll do my best to help. Cheers Andy
  6. Very nice build and finish and not over the top Cheers Andy
  7. The item or tube on the port wing is Tiseo (Target Identification System Electro-Optical) which in laymans terms is a long range camera for target ID beyond Mk.1 eyeball. The Arnie is the black lump on the spine between the two arials. Hope that helps. Cheers Andy
