Will chuck some pics on when I get a chance... pics Haven't done much glue sniffing lately, finished the 88 mm, just the weathering to do now but apart from that, nuffin. /pics Needs a diorama so I guess that's next. 12 Quote
The Bronze Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 I'm assuming you chose to either stow it or set it up? You can't switch it between the two? I always wondered about that kit when I was a kid Quote

I always wondered about that kit when I was a kid Nope, you can switch between the two. When building the bogies you sandwich a little steel nut between some parts & then there's screw that goes through the legs. The outriggers are hinged so you have all the choices. I'll post a pic when I'm back home. 1 Quote
CarolsHusband Posted August 10, 2021 Posted August 10, 2021 @The Bronze As promised. I should probably get on with it. 6 Quote
Popular Post CarolsHusband Posted August 15, 2021 Popular Post Posted August 15, 2021 Bit of 'Broke Back Modelling' going on, can't do much else ATM. Started on the washed out winter camo for the 88.... Also started getting my head round the next one. It's big, got lotsa bits & I'm using additional photo etched parts plus a trailer full of stuff & a scratch-built diorama. /better than the pub. 13 Quote
EpochNZ Posted August 19, 2021 Posted August 19, 2021 Does anyone have any comments on MiniArt? I've got a weird idea for a 1:35th scale shelf layout using their trams while filling the lineside scenery with their trucks and tractors. 2 Quote

chasinthemirage Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Started building an Airfix 1:600 (soz it's the wrong scale) HMS Belfast this afternoon. Fit of the parts is just as bad as I remember from childhood but it's an enjoyable process nonetheless. 4 Quote
Popular Post EpochNZ Posted August 21, 2021 Popular Post Posted August 21, 2021 Dug this out for my 15yr old sci-fi mad daughter to have a go at. 12 Quote
chasinthemirage Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Cool! How's she going with it? I've only built military kits but definitely keen to try some sci-fi stuff. Gave up on the Belfast, parts fit is terrible and I'm missing a sprue. This is the second go with this kit, the first one had two portside hulls. Good old Airfix. Having a jam at HMS Dreadnought now. 2 1 Quote

Also.... Got these two for my Burpday from the not-so-useless stepkids. The Chev is made by a company called ICM based in the Ukraine The High Speed Tractor is by Hobby Boss from China. No modelling ATM, back is on the mend but the one thing I can't do is sit for very long. Or get up after. Hey-ho. 8 Quote
Popular Post EpochNZ Posted August 22, 2021 Popular Post Posted August 22, 2021 @chasinthemirage She’s just having a go at a warmup kit to get the basics right before attacking the Falcon. (It’s an original tooling Airfix Super Etendard in 1:72 that had been in my stash for years for those following along at home) 12 Quote

Popular Post CarolsHusband Posted August 30, 2021 Popular Post Posted August 30, 2021 Flak 88mm is going to be abandoned under some trees so followed the worn winter camo with some washed off road grime and mossy weathering. 18 Quote

Popular Post CarolsHusband Posted September 15, 2021 Popular Post Posted September 15, 2021 Started my latest monster, inspired by this pic that I think @Alfashark posted a while back. It's going to take for ever, but It'll keep me out of the pub. Made a gentle start, trying not to turn this one into my usual rusty, muddy piece of war-torn junk. 12 Quote
