Mucho WOW!!!

Excellent -in for these, plus the Fullback monster sheet! I have to say, the Flanker series (Su-27/33/35S) sheets are awesome; the Su-27 stencil sheet has a fine selection of weapon markings and even includes the full set of graphics for the humungous Moskit ASM, which Armory left out of their resin kit! Useful, to say the least, as I hope to model the MAKS 1995 Su-33 one day...if my eyesight and fingers hold out long enough.

Re-posting this as a couple of quite tasty Nellis F-16s popped up on my FB News Feed today -apparently in the pipeline.

Superlative! And all in 1/72 -a real masterpiece.

Entirely beautiful.

Yessir, PUR dust is carcinogenic -avoid these new-fangled electrical devices that city folk use, and keep everything wet! It's a pity because some of these casting blocks are like tombstones, but think of all the lovely detail you're adding to your project...and how long you'll be around to appreciate it!

They are all GORGEOUS, of course -but that Razorback is worth a standing ovation! Also, the 'Miss M' nose art on #4 is outstandingly rendered; apart from the old PYN sheets even the better quality 'off the shelf' printers never seem to do justice to these designs in 1/48.

Always great to see an Els project! I still love TOS, and (despite the un-promising raw material) this iconic Shuttle is coming together a treat.

If I know anything about this game, it is 'Never say never'. There is a shedload of stuff around now that I wouldn't have dreamed of being kitted when I got (back) into modelling as a 'Mature Student' 12 years ago. But personally, I'd be really happy with a new 1/72 Strat tool! For me, the only bomber EVER that can be described as beautiful -or, as someone put it on another forum, "...a Corvette among Kenworths"!

Dude, check the copy under the thumbnails!

Actually...I think you're right! Dammit!!! I couldn't see the nose fins on the photo (it doesn't enlarge too well) but on closer study the 'waist' appears to taper the opposite way to what I thought, and I can sort of see the tell-tale tubing on the lower right if I squint hard...! Duh! Yessir; these are very nice indeed and I have a brace of them for my projected Syria-deployed Fullback. AM also do the BetAb ones...but only in 1/48!

...and STILL no BetAb 500 SHPs!

As some wag on Britmodeller suggested, a 1/72 Russian Weapons Set with a free (notional) Su-34 kit!

Yeah, the whole dinner. Whatever's in there you're gonna sell out by mid-day!

Also SOP in some parts of Mediterranean countries, I believe...? But that may be a 'thing' that persists in very old, smaller communities because what we understand as 'modern drainage' systems are associated more with larger cities -the (now rather stretched) London sewer infrastructure was only conceived because the prevailing waste management strategy beforehand amounted to 'chuck it all in the river', in this case the handy and apparently bottomless Thames! Only after numerous typhoid outbreaks and the Thames, along with its underground tributaries such as the Fleet eventually

Always enjoyed his work; as well as acting he directed five titles including the entertaining Frailty (2001). R.I.P. Sir.

WOW!!! Magnificent work!

Riiight...there is (was?!) a learned article on this very forum regarding just that. Haven't actually tried the method, but it sounds reasonable. I even had it bookmarked; problem is we had a dreaded Server Migration since then, and my bookmark is useless! From what I recall, the bedrock of the idea is approaching the job like re-scribing, but leaving the raised 'banks' left by the scriber either side of the line and coaxing them together over the recess somehow (possibly with a fingernail or something...) -OK, you can see I remember enough to get into trouble but not enough to get out again!

I have no lack of confidence in your abilities, Sir -just hoped for better 'togetherness' in a modern tooling!

Jeebers, that looks like the kind of modelling where you need a gum-shield... I wonder if the ill-regarded Academy kit is that much worse?!

Yes, but only with little pictograms showing TP sheets (they even suggest a quantity: 2-3 sheets per application!) and, yes, directional arrows... ...and no! The makers probably figure that only us Brits are dumb enough to need help with this! Also, no mention is made of what you are supposed to do with the tissue after use -somehow, this conjures unfortunate images of people sitting in their bathrooms desperately punching Product Helpline numbers into their iPhones...one handed.

Beautiful collection -there is something about Russian Navy aircraft...!

Well...it's a start!

Phenomenal work -a tour de force of what is possible in this scale, if you treat it as though it were any other scale. And possess enormous skill, of course!

Today I went to a store here in England where, among other 'household goods, various', I purchased a 9-roll pack of a major brand toilet tissue. IT HAS 'INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE' PRINTED ON THE BAG!!! Seriously??! If you need to be told how to use this stuff, you probably cannot read. Or do your own shopping! (Worse still, the so-called 'Instructions' mention nothing about cleaning airbrush needles...)
