[image] The second one of the dual combo is underway Eduard 1-72 BF109K-4 Bit of cockpit work quite pleased for a tiny 1-72

[image] My #JFFWWI vintage Airfix Dennis fire engine is finished - complete with lights and sound effects provided by the Tiny FX controller in the back. 1970s kit with 2026 tech.

[image] Just in time for the #JFFLetterB deadline! James Bond's Aston Martin DB5. 1/43 scale @Airfix kit, with my own 3D printed added extras including bulletproof screen, extended bumper overriders and wheel spinners, plus bespoke numberplate decals.

[image] Eduard Scale : 1-72 Model: MK V B Spitfire Dual combo kit “Spitfire Story” The decals on the upper wings are not the Eduard kit decals (long story) the rest are & so now it’s 48 hours of burnishing & some more Sol then it’s removing the cover film time 😬

[image] Great War theme here for some time to come. This Fokker and a Royal Flying Corps DH-2.

[image] #JustForFunScaleModels They are gone, so I have done one for myself. AV-8B+ Harrier, Uma, 1/48

[image] Undercarriage is now installed. I’m working a lot with 1-72 at the moment (WWI will be 1-48) it’s teaching me to keep weathering staining etc in scale so at larger scales it won’t seem so daunting & knowing when to stop!! that’s the theory anyway quite enjoyable tbh

[image] My two #JFFLetterB vehicle builds together. Both Airfix starter kits, both 1:43 scale, both with extra 3D printed parts, both great fun to make! #Bond #BlueLights

[image] Voodoo's made it out to display case.

[image] Oil dot filter going on the Jagdpanther after a pin wash. It will only change things a little,but will bring it altogether that bit more. On vertical surfaces I use a downward stroke with the brush, & sometimes upward strokes. On horizontal flat surfaces I use a dabbing motion.

[image] I'm quite happy with the result I have to admit 😅

[image] Chipping and oil work on this Italeri 1/35th scale 134/1. Going well now, need to start thinking about working on the accessories and start work on the wheels soon. Exhausts need more work yet, as do a few other areas. Happy with it now though.😀😀 #JFFCancerResearch

[image] My project for #JFFLetterB is drawing to a close…final touches.

[image] Eduard 1-72 BF 109K-4 #JFFLetterB WIP … I decided it would be easier to do the fuselage separately

[image] I really am now all set for #JFFWWI with the arrival of a vintage Airfix 1914 Dennis fire engine - still sealed in the bag.

[image] Update on the Tamiya 1,35 Sherman M4, still a lot to do decals, weathering etc, overall a really nice kit. #JFFScaleModels #ScaleModels #Tamiya #WW2 #ModelBuilding

[image] Figure painting in progress. Lots of brass and facial hair! #JFFWWI

[image] Pakwagon update….Lightened up the brown and green camo and it’s had a light oil wash and pin wash. Need to get the decals on next then more weathering with oils for streaks, and chipping and scratches to do yet. Happy with it 😀😀

[image] I don’t know about this Eduard 1-72 MK V-B Dual Combo it’s not a patch on their 109’s but it’s getting somewhere & when I get round to the 2’nd one hopefully I’ll do it better

[image] Happy with this so far. Chipping up next.🤗

[image] Airfix 1/72 TSR2 with lots of aftermarket bits.

[video] Made good progress on the Buffalo. Fruil Tracks took an age but look awesome. Drivers compartment done with scratch conduit. Hatch relocation has worked out nicely. All in all I’m loving this big ugly beast. Onwards.

[image] Tamiya 1,35 Sherman M4 finished, nice kit, pleased with how it turned out. #ScaleModels #Tamiya #WW2 #ModelBuilding

[image] Update on the Tamiya 1,35 Sherman M4, lower hull done upper hull almost there a few bits and pieces to add. Getting there. #JFFScaleModels #ScaleModels #Tamiya #WW2

[image] Oils done on these two. Some detailing left and then weathering and a trench section. #JFFWWI

[image] 50 year old Airfix decals on some pretty chunky carrier film, but any yellowing not a problem against the red. #JFFWWI
