  1. Gordon's Alive!!! (sorry couldn't resist) Great job on a scheme I have not yet attempted
  2. TB has the colours as :- Light Gray = FS36495 Dark Gray = FS35237 Blue = FS35109 I used Humbrol #147, Humbrol #145 and Xtracolor #124 respectively on my build Hope this helps
  3. Collection in 2007... Mainly Hasegawa 1/72 ... link to full list ... and some of my lastest builds Hasegawa 1/72 Hasegawa 1/72 Hasegawa 1/72 Revell 1/32 Hasegawa 1/72
  4. Only aftermarket source I know of are the VF-Decals set from Lucky Models Lucky Models Website My attempt from last year HTH
  5. That was my reason for posting, seeing as Hannants were getting some negative publicity, when it probably has nothing to do with them directly.
  6. Excellent choice of markings Dave, will be tracking this build - good luck
  7. Phone call from Banks Fraud Department - querying a few transactions: First 3 recent transactions check out OK, 4th transaction carried out this morning however was for 97p in USA not OK. Card Cancelled, new one on the way. Of note - Card was never used at Hannants so it seems it is down to any CC or DC transactions carried out in the last few weeks.
  8. Shots taken in 2007, since then I have built 8 and bought another 2 Did this with the Two Bobs 1/72 NSAWC/Topgun Vipers sheet
  9. Another suggestion for the surround, is print the black (I assume its black on the lanc) on the edges, then use your weathering to blend the black of the decal with the balck paint.
  10. Jimmy Click on the "My Controls" link (Top right) Click on the "Board Settings" on the menu options (bottom left) On the resulting screen change the "Your base time zone" to yours, and then click on the button "Change my Account Options" Hope this helps
  11. same as Mike used to be my Iwata Airbrush, but my Spray booth I bought last year now takes the podium
  12. I can highly recommend these >> boxes << - I have about 30 of the different sizes so far... 19 Litre boxes for my decal stash 1 of 4 4 Litre boxes holding most of my paints Other examples of uses are 5 of the 50 Litre boxes holding my DVD collection of just over 500.
  13. IIRC the 1/48 sheet # was 48-112, but sold out rather quickly from what I remember.
  14. Here is a link to a more clearer set of colour profiles for the VF-31 AJ100, without the markings or "dirt" >> linky << Hope this helps
  15. Here is another UK shopping hit at a reasonable price - >> Choiceful.com << HTH
  16. Here is a photo of the two bottles of Klear (sample of contents in jars in front) as sold in the UK. One on the left is the "new improved" formula and the one on the right is the old faithful. Currently the old formula is disappearing from shelves and being replaced by the new bottles. The cost is about 5p per 10ml on both bottles - old (500ml) @ £2.50 and new (750ml) @ 3.89. This compares to £1.13 for 10ml of Tamiya Acrylic Clear. In 2008/2009 I tested the new formula out and was not as happy with it as with the old formula, but as the old formula disappears it would seem to be a viabl
  17. I don't think there would be any differences, apart from being able to block all external direct light, using the "hide" style slitted front cover. I printed out this link, laminated it and keep it with my light box >> Steve's Photo Shop | Light Tent Folding Instructions <<
  18. In 1999, >> GO NAVY << has NH101 listed as 163893, but no listing for the 2001 cruise. Also of interest would be the Revell (US) boxing shows NH101 as 164603 in 2001, but pilot as CDR Craig Long (CAG) and RIO as Lt CDR Carl Lewis VF-213 NH101 164603 (2001 USS Carl Vinson CVN-70) HTH
  19. Click on the pics for Full size scans of the Yellowhamer Instructions.
  20. Been using the Gray primer for a number of years and it is gorgeous, and is also available in White (ALC306) and Black (ALC309).
  21. I had left the Eduard masking/ Tamiya tape on my last 2 Tomcat builds for about a year and a half with no residue. I did, however, dip them in Klear before I had applied the masking.
