Hi folks, I thought you might be interested in the contents of this box of heavy plant: There's a stall selling all kinds of Kibri vehicles at our local model railway show, and at the most recent one I cracked and bought one. I wasn't really sure what to expect as some model railway kits are pretty ancient, but in the box this looks rather nice: The mouldings are sharp, there's clear glazing and separate framing so nothing to mask It's also got decently fine railings and looks to make up into a suitably impressive vehicle. The only real problem is the sheet of cut-out stickers rather than decals. And obviously I don't know how well it fits, but I guess I'll find out in due course. NB: It might be a good companion for my other mining truck! Cheers, Will

Hi, Here is the Airfix Canberra PR9 in 1/72. It's built OOB. I had the kit in the stash for while and built it as I was hankering after a Airfix Meteor F8 and this was the nearest thing I had to that being British and twin engined and from a similar era. The Airfix kit benefits from careful construction. I had to do a bit of sanding on the wing tips to get them flush with the rest of the wing. The rest of it was ok if I could use one word about the kit it would be chunky. It's pained in Gunze colours I added a few post shaded tones to the upper surface to make it less uniform. Same on the underside. Kit decals which went on ok but are not that crisp.. No real weathering as from a few looks at online references they were pretty well looked after and clean. Let me know what you think.. Thanks Plasto..
