Picked up a book at the weekend from the Spalding model show, full of colour photos of RAF aircraft from WW2, for the bargain sum of £2.50. Lots of pics of Spitfire wheel wells Mark. Most desert aircraft seem to be Azure blue..... |

Looks like a simple enough kit and good enough for my rendition of a middle east Tiger. I`ll do a sprue review in due course. |

Came from the States Del and it cost me a pretty penny as well. Also got the F.8 version coming from the same location for pretty much the same price. Thats nearly 200 nicker I won`t see again. Just hope I don`t cock em up. |

As previously mentioned, my F.8 came today thus completing my search for the Holy Grail of 1/48 Meteors.![]() Just the F.3 to go which should bring my spend tally on this little lot to just under £260....

I've read many good things about these little guys, so today I gave in and bought a box.![]() Five of them in a box and £30 cheaper than the 'official' Battlefront ones. I knew there were a load of options in there but I didn't expect the sprue to be this impressive. ![]() I also got a bottle of woodgrain glaze. With my growing interest in WW1 aircraft I thought it might be useful. ![]() I gave it a trial run on the inside of the Fokker Triplane I've just started. The paint was modelair wood then the glaze over the top. ![]() It looks pretty good...of course it won't show once I put the fuselage together but never mind. :D |

While I was in the shop getting the stuff in the post above I got some other random Vallejo paints. On the paint rack was some stuff called Plastic Putty. I tried it this morning, it's in a standard Vallejo bottle, easy to place where you want it and it is awesome. Smooths down really nice and easy to sand down in a few minutes. I like the Games Workshop Liquid green stuff and only got this stuff because I was too lazy to go the shop next door that does Games Workshop stuff. Best bit of lazy I ever did. :D |
