Just received the new tool Airfix 1/72 Dambuster Lancaster.

All I can say is wow. Have Airfix upped their game or what !! What a cracker of a kit. Please please Airfix, scale it up to 1/48

My Revell 1/48th Super Bug arrived today, been looking for this for some time now. It will go with Syhart Decals '100 years of Naval Aviation' digital camo and Quickboost ECS vents for the topside rear.

had some free time this morning so thought id pay a visit in the city, see how close ModelZone is to closing.............good job i did.....4 days left!



going to miss the place, especially their Revell sales once a year



still had quite a lot in at sensible sale prices................i wasnt really looking to buy any kits, already got too many in the stash, i really went looking for paint/weathering stuff/etc but i couldnt pass these up



this is sort of a grail kit for me even tho its readily available, just never got round to buying it!.....ive done the Tamiya Celica rally car, got the Corolla rally car to do and now this.............all three in Castrol scheme

coudnt pass this up for a tenner.......there was an extra 10% off the price on the box.......ive been watching someone light up a DS9 and fancied doing it myself..........got a cheap and easy idea to do it to this one



Posted Image



and i really had to get this!.........ive really been fancying doing something REALLY different.......a single cylinder 4 stroke cutaway engine



Posted Image



i used to work for a certain japanese car manufacturer in the UK...........was once on a training course.........the guy taking the course took us to the engine manufacturing plant and in reception there was a cutaway 4 pot inline......you could spin the crank and see all the valve gear and pistons etc doing what they should.....thing is although he was taking the course he didnt have a clue how an engine worked!!!!........i ended up running thro it for him lol lol........'suck, squeeze, bang, blow'..........he had never heard of that either!

So much for the kit ban,

Ive just picked up the new 1/72 Lancaster B.II (I know its not god's scale but It will do) for a memorial to RAF Wichford down the road to me and finally a 1/48 Merlin Just don't tell the future Mrs B :whistle :D

My merlin and Lancaster B.II just turned up and all I can say is BLINDING KITS!!!!!


But now Im in a dilemma

I bought the B.II to do one from Witchford but in the kit you get decals for a Waterbeach machine which is also down the road..... Bugger, bugger, bugger, bugger. :lol:
