    Papa 695s ICM 1/72 Mig 29

    Looking really nice, great subject too. Always have a lot of respect for these 1/72 builds, I don't think I'd have a steady enough hand

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Here are some images of the sprues, you'll see some parts come in there individual boxes such as the ordanance which some are moulded in a cage for easy separation. Also the nose/fuselage looks like it must be slip molded (the cockpit slides into it). The canopy has a couple of options either...

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Some decals have been added to the cockpit, fiddly but went down pretty well I thought, still more detail to be added

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Nice detail on the martin bakers, about 15 pieces make up each seat including the PE belts, I also added a little strap between each harness and also some clips for each belt

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Yep, Dave is right. Avantgarde model kits, this is a new tooling from 2021 so pretty new and definitely the newest kit I've ever built. Having had a good look it's as good as the Tamiya by the looks of things, was a bit cheaper too so bonus. The details is pretty impressive with some slip...

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Made a start on the "office" the seats were a bit clean so I distressed them a bit with the dremmel, a sanding stick and some extra thin.

    Phil's AMK 1/48 F14D SuperTomcat

    Hi All, Hope everyone who reads this is happy and well. This is pretty much full circle I guess, as an 80's kid an F14 was probably the fist kit I built with my late father (rather badly). Seeing a Tomcat in my local hobby shop in Welling in Kent blew my mind, I'd seen it in topgun and I'd seen...

    GWH P61A Black Widow - 1/48

    Oh Barry, what a pain in the arse, sorry to hear this had to be binned. I think sometimes you can just about go as far as your patience takes you then move on, I did it with a old monogram panther. The decals were horrible and the plastic was so think and horrible, I just fell out of live with...

    To buy or not to buy? That is the question!

    That's interesting Pete, is ot because like me you have another ab for bigger coats and only use the cr for detail? Or do you use the 0.2 for everything?

    To buy or not to buy? That is the question!

    To be fair Tim I'm getting rid of a iwata hp-ch just because I've never really got on with it, it's been a bloody pain in the backside, think I paid around £180 for it and it's caused more problems than my neo and old h & s put together, it was recommended to me strongly and it's definitely a...

    To buy or not to buy? That is the question!

    So, had a quick look through, apologies in advance if this has been asked. I'm at the point of ready to purchase a new airbrush and I've settled on the h & s infinity cr plus but what I'd like help with is should I go with the 2 in 1 kit? Has anyone got a real benefit out of the two needles...

    GWH P61A Black Widow - 1/48

    Bloody fiddly eh? I always have a set of instrument decals on hand from airscale, that way the cursing and threating is only temporary
