Thanks, I'm not happy with the pics, need to be redone in better light.

The Jeep is tiny, I've already started it, the chassis and running gear are first and I've painted that up before anything else goes on to it, I've learnt to file of the paint where I need to glue any parts!

I take pics of my kits with a very grey back ground. They stand out more.

Good idea to paint the very small parts prior to assembled.

Have a look a some of the matt varnishes

Exhausts and engine vents on. The tracks have defeated me today. So I went swimming

It's looking good, I managed to glue an exhaust and put the headlamps into my latest build and touch up some paint I messed up.

But I was meant to be working!

Looking amazing. Looks like the real thing half way through a restoration.

The bottles look like gas canisters and the mat looks like tiles! Great perspective! :-) G

I can't believe that we've got Crafts, Gardening, Computer Games, but not model cars, trains...!

Just don't call them toys!

My particular hobby was 1/10th scale radio controlled car racing. I'm now looking to get into radio controlled planes. We have some Airfix model builders in here and Lego builders too. Any type of model vehicles really! Planes, trains, automobiles... boats, helicopters, anything! Come join in! :-) G
