Nice Bedford Tony! Not much to look at I admit but these are the final bits and pieces in preparation for an upcoming build which to be honest is already scaring me stupid just thinking about it.

Err, could be Dicky although the Zinc Chromate Yellow is good for auto engines.

Gary Hey Gary, thanks buddy, yeah skin tones should be very nice on that one I would say that that camera is overkill for modelling buddy. Its £700 with that lens but its a DSLR and is very compact for that type of camera which is what drew me to that one as I was looking for a more compact camera and I didn't want to go for anything less than a DSLR. I'll be using it for loads of stuff other than model pics but the lens it comes with should cover pretty much most of those things. To be honest Gary you could get a perfectly decent DSLR camera for modelling purposes as well as other stuff for a fraction of that money. The one Rob mentioned the other day, the Nikon D3100 is a good camera and will do perfectly for the hobby with incredibly good pics, or the Canon Rebel T3 as seen here. Cool cameras and not too bad cost wise and you can add different lenses if you wanted to take up photography more seriously. My broken camera was a Olympus E-510 with which I mostly used my 14-42mm lens and that took great pics for this hobby. That lens is on amazon for sale at £60 now (my lens itself) and the camera can be picked up for peanuts compared to what I paid for it three years ago. Hope that helps mate. Just don't spend too much when you are just starting out with these camera types, there's no need to. All this talk of nekkid pictures reminds me of an old joke. A guy and his buddy are sitting at the bar.The guy looks at his buddy and says "Do you have any pictures of your wife naked?" The buddy says"No I don't".And the guy says...................." Would you like some?" Ba Dum Dum Boo,that is a sweet lens housing Bud

Havnt posted recently due to one thing or another, potty training my two year old son and the new Tomb Raider on Xbox to be precise A tangent for me as I dont tend to do wingy things, but WW1 biplanes just grab me with the variety of colour. A very nice package, all I have had to source was some fishing line for the rigging, the small packet in front is from a company called Bobs buckles, click me for those into WW1 string bags but are unsure about how to rig his site is a good starting point, very simple instructions and available in 1/48th and 1/32, anyhow I digress the packet contains 120 eyelets for attaching the rigging lines.......... tres useful methinks! An next up is this muther!!!!!!!!!!! Wanted it for so long...... and my good lady decided that as I had done so well with my quiting smoking she would treat me Top lass! On top of that because we support our LHS the kindness was returned with an exceptional deal, nowhere near retail price 1/72 with 1800 parts, about a metre long, and the box weighs in at about 6kg absurd but had to!

Probably I might play with the other local guys at the open field, but need a few more gear, it really stings like a fire ant bite

Its fun and exciting even though its very hot in the field with direct sun light and the air is humid... its a stress reliever I almost attack by the fire ants there's a Mango Tree inside our compound, we already burn the nest to get rid of it now their back might shoot em soon then burn it again

the compressor is much quieter than the last one and has a 3l tank on it with auto shut off and safety valve so it wont explode

Allright guys, had a couple of pleasant surprises in the mail today. Great kits guys. My goodness, I can't keep up around here anymore. MSC has Grown exponentially! Prof: (or anyone else) I gotta ask what you think of that perfect plastic putty? I always wanted to try it but was wondering if it stands up to what the label says? Gonna make this one rusty sometime soon:) This is an awesome kit by the looks of it. It has some very cool "velour" carpet that is cut and sized to fit around the interior and some super cool three-dimensional plastic chrome stickers? transfers of the VW badge, Volkswagen, and the engine size/style number. Very cool. Got it cheap on the bay as well:) Looking forward to building this one. Also, splurged and picked up the barrel for my T-34-76 build. The thing is already built and painted but I stalled out on the in box tracks, so at the last show I was at, I bought my first set of Friuls for it. They are super cool. But looking at the kit and noticing a slight seam on the barrel, I just had to get the barrel to match the fancy tracks, right? Will post a blog soon in the armor section. Speaking of the T-34, I realised I'm missing one of these on this:( This will hinder my build a little and I'd rather not scratch it, so I'm wondering if anyone has an extra in the spares box that they don't need? It's the front wheel thing (name?) that's adjustable to make the tracks tight. Let me know here or pm if you can help me out. ACW. Cheers

Boo,that's a great idea ::)Sometimes it's worth the extra monay spent to be able to have a face to talk to if you have a problem with the product. Just make sure that you tell them you will be using it to take pics of Plastic Armor models,or thay might try to sell you one of those zoom lens that they use for close ups on those scantley clad,shapely type models.If ya know what I'm sayen' Jeff T.
