  1. Impressive work LS, a very neat and tidy ship! She looks better every time I stop by.👍😉
  2. Good luck and have fun!!!
  3. I did think about aftermarket stuff but then found the main UK distributor for Hasegawa and dropped them an email, the upshot being they are posting replacement parts to me😆 should arrive sometime next month as they are awaiting new edition of the Dauntless. So I'm just poking my head down the rabbit hole for nowUntil then I'll get some painting done or a bit more planking on Triton. Thanks for dropping by and all the likes. Cheers 😃👍
  4. I love these Pacific campaign aircraft so I'll get my seat now while there's room!!
  5. Welcome to MSW 👍😁
  6. The painting has started and I've done the few parts of the cockpit I have I have just placed the bulkheads (not glued) and I've realised that the pilots seat is missing, oh well I'll get around that somehow. Til next time Cheers
  7. Great job as always Phil. Cannon and carronade look excellent 😃👍
  8. It's been resolved!! Full refund and still got the kit. I may try and scratch the undercarriage and rear wings. The small details missing from the cockpit will be left out and then there just the rear gun cradle thingy, I will probably botch something together for that. With the refund I think a Zero, Kate or Jill will fit the bill. Oh God I've got this bug now as well as the ships. Thanks a lot guys😂😉
  9. Yes Amazon is very good with sorting things out, even if 3rd party seller is involved, so one way or another it'll be sorted out.
  10. Update on the missing parts, as it was purchased through Amazon I think it'll be easier to send it back and get another, as the seller wishes to see photos which I have sent but heard nothing yet. Seller is Paraiso Japan EU. I have to wait 2 working days for a reply, so this build on hold for a bit. Sorry😥😡
  11. The tobacco for the pipe could be flavoured with a touch of rum😀my great grandad used to moisten his old baccy this the smell was lovely.
  12. Fantastic build and display 😃. The lighting in the "cockpit " area looks very realistic, I for one think you got it perfect.
  13. Thanks Craig, with any luck the parts will be sent. The original parcel took eleven days to get here from Japan. In the meantime I have started to paint the other cockpit parts, I'm using Tamiya cockpit green as my order of Mr color paints not turned up yet and I can get Tamiya paints locally. Checked it on a conversion chart and it supposed to match, but I don't think it will matter as long as all the other parts requiring this colour are done the same. I'll get some photos on tomorrow Cheers
  14. So began to check the parts for the cockpit and was going to paint but have noticed that two sprues of parts are missing,🤔🤔 mainly cockpit pieces and the whole of the undercarriage, wheels etc... its brought the build to a halt until I can obtain the missing bits.😡 E-mail winging its way to Hasegawa as I write!!!
  15. Hi, have you thought about Chuck's Winchelsea? It is a plank on bulkhead build but you can either scratch build all of it or get some of the laser cut parts if you want. Just my thoughts. Cheers
  16. I just did quick measure of my guns on Sherbourne and the barrel is 27mm and the carriage 16mm, so on Tony's calculations if yours are the same they are a bit oversized.
  17. Yes one with the ladder on the track so you could get along the top shelves, and sit in the wing back chair to read the chosen tome
  18. I agree with Chris on the planking, on my Sherbourne deck planking was 0.5mm although even with thinner decking it looks as though the barrel would still catch the port lintol. It's hard to tell from the photo but the gun does look a tad oversized. It wouldn't do any harm to try thinner decking.

  20. Hi Jan, welcome to MSW
  21. I reckon you could write a book for modellers with all the great tips you gives us Craig 😆👍
