    New Photo Studio

    Hey Herd, In another thread, Myke asked me to talk more about my new Portable Photo Booth. So here it is for anyone interested. Cost $40 AUS from ebay. 1. Photo 1 shows the carry bag that holds everything AND becomes the booth. It all just folds out and the lights and tripod are in...

    1 or 2 blades up?

    Hey there, Just wanted to pose a question to you aircraft guys. When setting up the prop on a 3 blader, do you guys prefer to pose them with 1 blade vertically up, 1 blade vertically down or just random? Maybe you like to pose them differently for different planes? But if you have...

    And another 109...

    Hey guys, Just tested out the new portable photo studio on my almost complete Airfix Bf109. Still only have a cheap camera (and I need to get the wrinkles out of the liner) but the pics seem much clearer now that I have the studio. The bird still needs mid canopy section glued on...

    Help with a camera

    Hey Herd, Sorry if this topic has been covered (and if it has can some1 plesae give me the ink to it). I am embarrassed by the quality (lack of quality) of the photos I have been putting up on the GB thread of my build. Can someone recommend a particular camera that won't cost a...

    Tamiya 1/48 M6A1 Seiran

    This is my baby for the Group Build. I wanted to do something a bit different and I could think of nothing more "different" than an aircraft built to be deployed from a submarine by the IJN. (Not sure if I had to post proof-of-date, so I have included a pic of my kit in front of Aces post of his...

    Method in my madness?

    I am considering switching completely to Vallejo for my paint. I am thinking that I want to use just the Model Air Range for the top coats and the Vallejo primers;Grey for priming & Black for pre-shading. Here is my thinking. 1. I mostly model WWII airplanes and it seems Model Air has most of...

    Number of members?

    Hey Herd, Just a quick question. At the time of writing this, the stats at the bottom of the forum home page say 21519 posts by 387 members. Does that mean that we have 387 members at this time or that 387 of our total number of members have posted? When I checked the "Members"...

    Riot in my Stash

    I have just caused chaos in my collection of yet-to-build kits. I have a stash of somewhere near 50 models and all of them are WWII aircraft. But thanks to you guys and some of your posts in this section I went out and got myself a tank! The other kits in the stash are ignoring it at the moment...

    Antenna wire

    Hey Herd, I just read hilld's FW190 thread and I was wondering if you guys who build Aircraft models have discovered the joy of EZline? This product is simply awesome. It's easy to put on and bends to some amazing rate (700% apparently) so you don't have to worry about breaking...

    Decal question

    Hello Herd, I was hoping that someone can advise as to whether it is worth my while to try and make my own decals. I have searched the forum and read bits and pieces but I would like to know (or see a video preferably) if they work out ok or am I better sticking with the big brands. You tube...

    Future?

    Hello all, I have been sent a bottle of this stuff from a friend in the U.S. Does anyone know if it is the same stuff that Future once was? I have been trying for a very long time to get hold of Future / Pledge and I am just hoping that this will do the same job. cheers, FW190...

    Hello and Happy New Year to all of you. Just wanted to say hi and I am glad that I have found this forum. I have read a ton of stuff already and love what I have seen.
