    Colonial Viper MKII

    Something a bit different for me. I like the look of this kit, good potential for some weathering and chipping. The kit it's self is not too bad, very few parts which will make for a quick build, however the trade off is in detail which is a bit soft in places. Anyhoo, the box. The kit has a...

    Iron Man

    This was a prize for my son, kindly donated by Grendles in the BSC. I have been helping him out with it over the last month or so, it's almost ready for some primer. A lot of work needed on the seams, however the design of the kit is quite good, keeping these areas to a minimum and...

    Hanomag Sdk.... etc etc

    G'day folks. Been a while since I did any armor, here's a little side project I got going on. The box. One of Tamiyas older kits, but still has nice detail. Interior detail is ok. Would this have been same colour as the exterior ? Dry fit of it inside the hull. Fenders and attached with...

    F16-A Israeli Air Force " Fighting Falcon"

    G'day folks, With the BSC all done and dusted I thought it was time to turn may attention to something new. This is Hasegawa's 1/48 kit, from what I've read one of their older ones. Shows it age with a little flash here and there and the fit isn't as crisp as I've seen on other kits from...

    Hi guys, This is my 9 yr old sons entry into the Junior category. I bought it for him last year, pretty sure it's one of the new molds, the detail looks nice and crisp. Have to be totally hands off with this one, but he'll be getting plenty of advice along the way ;D

    Tatiana's Vanship - Hasegawa 1/72

    So this my entry into the Sci Fi category. Bought this in Tokyo earlier this year, saw it in a hobby shop and just had to have it. All I know is it is from a Japanese Anime series, but it looked so darn cool I couldn't pass it up. I've been itching to start it ever since. Here's some shots...

    Hairspray questions

    G'day folks, I'm thinking about trying the hairspray technique on my next build and have a few questions 1 . Which is best, aerosol or pump spray? 2 . Can both of these be applied directly from the bottle or do they both need to be decanted into your AB ? 3 . Is one coat enough or is the...
