                SIG is special interest group I think, but I’m sure Paul will confirm it soon.....

                      These arrived a few days ago but have only just gotten around to taking pics. From John as usual.

                      A nice cheap 1/48 Tamiya kit

                      [ATTACH]375908[/ATTACH]

                      Another one, but a bit smaller this time. I'm hoping to try my hand at the mottling in 1/72. Should be a laugh. That's if I can ever find the right colours in a paint I like rather than the Tamiya cocktail in the instructions

                      [ATTACH]375909[/ATTACH]

                      And a few more AK paints to build up my collection. I've only had Model Air to brush with up to now which hasn't always gone well, so a few colours should get me started, along with a couple of their effect additives to mess with. The Dark Aluminium looks just as bad as the regular one I've already got though, more of a pearl white. Not sure what's going on there, but the Silver & Gun Metal look like proper metallics.

                            ordered in January this one has finally put in an appearance

                            looks like a nice kit but blimey, Bronco really like going overboard with the parts count!

                              I took the plunge and got my 1/32 Revell Me262 A-1a that i'm going to use for my JV44 'Hunters & Protectors' duel build. Cannot wait to build these.
