Airfix's 1/72 Red Arrows Gnat Stater Set completed earlier this year (2016). Built pretty much out of box, except I discarded the paints that came with the set & opted for Vallejo acrylics, buffed and then layered with generous coats [...]

M60A1, just done

by Ralph Clements on November 26, 2016 · in Armor · 9 ≡

Tamiya 1/25th scale Morris Mini Cooper 1275S Mk-1

by George Tufnail on November 26, 2016 · in Automotive · 7 ≡

This was built absolutely straight from the box, and finished with Tamiya spray color TS-41 Coral Blue that I decanted and applied with my Iwata HP-CS. Everything in the engine bay was all brush painted, and the interior was very [...]

Tamiya M10 IIC Achilles 1/48

by Dennis Meyers on November 25, 2016 · in Armor · 12 ≡

The 17pdr Achilles was a British adaptation of the American M10 TD armed with a very effective 17 pounder anti-tank gun, similar to the Sherman Firefly. As with all other Tamiya 1:48 kits I've tried, this was nearly flawless which left [...]
