T55 for two.Lightning PK 126.XXXXFinishedXXXXXXX


Recommended Posts

It's looking good Steve and it's particularly nice to see a Lightning in Saudi markings :coolio:

FWIW, I've had a few disappointing results with matt metallic paints (even Alclad), so now always use shiny ones with a matt varnish top coat.

 

Cheers

That looks good. It undermines the thinking amongst so many modellers (probably myself included) that all Matchbox kits are toy like and not "real" models. Some admittedly aren't great but some are really good. 👍

Hey bud, apologies! My model making has completely stalled for now as I've just started a new job. Feel free to offer them out to somebody else. I'm so sorry it took me this long to get back to you. I completely abandoned BM as well as my kits :(

Aye, finding the mojo amongst kids, new job & training as well as a distance college course is challenging at the best of times!
