Re: Airfix Revenge

Elizabethan race-built Galleon “Revenge” Navy Royal Gravelines 1588 “Phew” finished. My first sailing ship build with so much rigging. Started at the beginning of October last year and spent about 2 hours daily building it. Its certainty taught me some new modelling skills and techniques, but I've r...

Re: Keighley Show - September 2024

Keighly model show was really kind to me and my family as my youngest grandson won his first model class at his first try, at only his second model show (Not 1/144 unfortunately) although he did have a couple of his models on the SIG stand. I won best in show which I NEVER expected as I only entered...

Re: Revell Type IX U-boat

The handrails on the Conning tower fitted, and the top rail removed and a new replacement handrail fitted using 020” Evergreen plastic rod with the intention of then doing the lower handrails but the impression on looking at the effect of only replacing the upper rail was quite effective so left the...

Revell Type IX U-boat

Revell Type IX U-Boat Just received the new Revell type IX U-Boat. Apart from some rather heavy hull side detail looks very nice. Might try a different way of displaying the model by mounting it on a base, full hull, but adding a “Faller” water line surface, plus “Germania Figurens” deck crew. (As p...

NeOmega,s Dog boat.

NeOmega,s Dog boat. The NeOmega kit is a beauty but by goodness you sure need steady hands and a nice pair of non ping tweezes as there are a lot of miniature parts. I started by marking the deck with a needle point using the supplied template before then adding the brass deck detail parts. After lo...

New associate member?

Two of my grandsons accompanied me to their first model show this year (Northern Model Show.) They loved it. Carter my youngest wanted to buy a model from Huw, however, Huw said he could have it for nothing. This is the result. 287copy.jpg his sense of direction needs working on as you can see his c...

Re: Like waiting for a bus

The first bus has just arrived. The NeOemga Fairmile “D” bus to pleasure. Now how to present it. Full hull or on a sea base. Decisions, decisions. The fun continues.
