  1. Thanks gentlemen for the tips, I hear of horror stories relating to fingerprints, what causes this? (don´t say fingers!) Thanks again, Campos
  2. Hi all, I´m a basic level modeller and contemplating making my first bare metal finish aircraft (Classic Airfix 1:72 MIG 21), I have a good airbrush but after hearing so many horror stories of people who try to make a bare metal finish and end up with a dogs dinner I thought I would ask for some basic tips for making my first bare metal aircraft. I prefer to use Enamels and have access only to Humbrol paints here in my city, any advice would be warmly received. Thanks, Campos
  3. Hello, Firstly I want to congratulate you on this aircraft... its beautiful! I posted before regarding Comets on the sales board a couple of months ago but still have had no joy. I have tried contacting the Whirlybirds people at the e-mail here and the e-mail quoted on the instructions and every time they bounce back to me. Can anybody provide a working e-mail address for the Whirlybirds company? As last resort I will call them at number below. Thanks Campos - Brazil
  4. Does anybody have any tips for how to mask and make a perfect circle for painting wheel centres? Any tools that can facilitate this? How do you do it? Aracos, Tete
  5. This is my 2nd new topic so please be gentle with me especially if this has been covered before. I’m seeking a good supplier of modeling tools in the USA, In particular I want to buy sanding papers & a good quality modeling putty knife. Can anybody here recommend a good stockiest? Abracos, Tete
  6. Thanks for the excellent responses! It will take a little time to digest but I feel I have what I need I have a buget of around US$ 300 so time to get planning Thanks, Tete
  7. Dear colleagues, This is my FIRST post on the ARC, I have been reading and studying your pages in detail and finally I have discovered my old passion! I write from Brasil, and finally I have decided to enter my old hobby of building scale model aircraft. I have a question that has probably been asked before BUT I hope you will not find it boring. I’m starting from nothing so I wish to know what members here believe are the best starter tools to work with. I like to work with airbrush so a recommendation of compressor / brush would be good (I used in the past a Badger 200 imported from USA
