  1. I'm still playing catch up on my reading here. This excellent Craig. The engine is especially beautiful Congratulations Alan
  2. Lovely painting and weathering. I may try your in-flight display. It would maximise shelf space which is becoming an issue for me Alan
  3. Thats looking very nice Jav. I need to try an Eduard kit Alan
  4. Thank you Mike I'm hoping the towers will use much less blocks. The curtain walls really soaked them up but the walls are quite a big area and have to be built up on both sides. Everything else will be a single outer layer. I'm enjoying the castle build but really look forward to getting back into the variety and detail of a plastic kit. The problem will be choice! Alan
  5. I am very late catching up with this one but it was well worth reading the thread. A beautiful model of a favourite aircraft. The weathering is perfect. Excellent work I came across this article in a recent newsletter. Typhoon reborn (aerosociety.com) Aan
  6. I agree with you and the 3D resin parts are so much nicer than the flat PE ones especially in 1/700 secondary weapons. Girders, catapults and cranes all look nice in PE but gun barrels less so Alan
  7. The resin printed parts are really nice; especially the single Bofors. I see this being a major change to the hobby providing limitless upgrades Alan
  8. Thank you Grant. The bag of blocks has diminished significantly; in fact I am wondering if I am going to have enough to finish the model Alan
  9. Beautiful model Craig. Excellent work Alan
  10. Late to teh party I'm afraid but Congratulations. The crew ladders and covers are a really nice touch. A beautiful model Alan
  11. Thank you OC. There is a lot of grinding and sanding ahead but its still enjoyable although I am fretting to get started on the lighting and painting figures etc. Alan
  12. Thank you EG I have a lot of enjoyable reading on here to catch up with and I hope I will be able to move along with the castle too. Completing that last tower will be a major milestone. Alan
  13. Breathtaking. The details are beautiful. There are just so many elements to marvel over. The water looks very realistic. Congratulations on a spectacular model Alan
  14. Beautiful models and seascape. Very dynamic Alan
  15. Thank you Craig. I'm doing well; just not getting enough time at the workbench. It would be nice if someone could turn the heat down a bit but from what I read there are areas much worse off. Just hoping this isn't the prelude to a nasty hurricane season. I'm enjoying this build a lot. The Black Shadow was a dream when i was at university. Never got beyond an AJS and a BSA Alan
  16. Thanks for the information Mike The Niko kits have some really interesting subjects. I will have to spend some of my recent earnings on a couple to try. I'm missing 1/700 world Alan
  17. Really nice job Jav. The weathering really makes it stand out. Great representation of an iconic aircraft Alan
  18. I'm late looking at this Greg but its a beautiful model and the setting is realistically frosty. The water / ice is superb Alan
  19. Thank you Ken Good to know that about the Yak kit. I got a bit carried away ordering from a Ukraine based seller on eBay. As usual I was attracted to the unusual. Excellent seller too. About ten days from Kiev to Florida. The Dora Wings kits look very nice. I haven't looked at the rest yet. I want to try a bare metal finish soon so this might be a good donor for a learning experience. Expectations dialled down on all fronts for this one. Alan
  20. Thank you <ark; I miss the inspiration and interaction on this site. There are some great artists here Alan
  21. Thank you Jack. I hope to be asking for some landscaping tips in the not too distant future Alan
  22. Beautiful details Mike. Thats a lovely model. I should attempt a resin kit. I have alway considered them to difficult for my skills Congratulations Alan
  23. The spoked wheels are wonderful. A huge improvement Alan
  24. Hi OC I've had to spend too much time in the real world recently but its great to see the photos of your figures again. I really like the one of the Rifles streaming out of the gate. I can almost see movement there. I hope your dental issues were resolved and all is well with you. I seem to be seeing far too much of the medical profession at teh moment and its far from my favourite activity even if a lot of it is on behalf of someone else. Alan
