Hi Britmodeller! This is my first ever post after a couple of months of browsing these forums motivated me to build my first ever model plane. However I did build a spitfire with my dad when I was much younger, but I never really got into it. The tools i used were fairly basic, a couple of humbrol brushes, the recommended humbrol paints and a scalpel from my dissection kit. In future I'm looking to start using airbrushes, oil washes and Eduard masks, but that may not happen until I stop being a poor student!
I used a small paintbrush and humbrol silver to apply paint chips, although I may have gone a bit overboard with this. The radio antennae also snapped and it was far too fiddly to repair so I decided to ditch it. I would love some constructive criticism to really help me with my next build, which is going to be the Revell Ju 87 B-2 (1/72) Thanks! Ben
