Starter set challenge.

[SimonT]

I was going by IBG website which says overseas will not have glue - guess it depends on their definition of overseas and whether suppliers are importing Polish version
May be best to check before purchasing as it could be a tad difficult holding all the parts together if glue not supplied :smiling:

I don't want to push this one but do we have any more takers.

Hi Peter
In your initial post you say the build will last for 3 months. Do you know yet which 3 months?
In our Aldi they have starter kits for £4.99 which would suit this I think.

Any starter kit is suitable so it's a case of pick what you like.
And in order to give people time to find a kit I will go from April to July.

Not to be pushy just a reminder that I just need two more to make this one a goer so is there any more takers

My problem is that starter sets over here are about as common as hens teeth. I think I have seen them once in 30 od years!!!

Hi Peter
I'll give it a go. No guarantee I'll finish it but I'll give it my best shot. This will be my attempt although how on earth you paint the pilots face with the colours provided I don't know :sad:

If it does end up in the bin it was only £4.99 from Aldi. It is certainly a very unusual GB.

Hi Peter

If its okay I would like to have a release from the joys of oil paint, research and fine detailing. The Airfix range is limited for AFV's so I will be going with the Cromwell

Am I allowed to modify the parts ie add damage, hollow out the barrel etc??

Just so long as your son go over board as I want to keep as per rules just to remind every body no airbrush allowed use what's in the box any weathering can be added later.

Pretend you're 10 years old again and have just spent your pocket money. Get home, coat off, beg mum for one of her nail sanders, newspaper on the dining room table and get you biscuit tin with your snippers, tweezers and Acto knife from under your bed. You'll have it built, painted and hung up by tea time.
Maybe not 'cause we are experienced adult modellers but have fun going back to basics!
