To all my good friends on UKAR, thanks so much for the support and encouragement over the years.

I've decided to quit modelling for the foreseable future. I'm not quite sure how I have come to this point, but I have.

Fond regards,

Alan

The USAAF GB was supposed to start the 1st November and I posted that I wasn't able to run it and could anyone step in.................

I don't build aircraft so much these days, so I'll join in as and when a GB takes my fancy.

People can be pretty snobbish about those old Matchbox kits, when with a little effort and skill, we can see they don't turn out half-bad. Think I must have built most of the range back in the day, when these kits were a whopping 99p each at our local toyshop. Never built the Siskin though. Did man...

Really enjoyed this build. A bit of nostalgia buiding Matchbox again. http://i360.photobucket.com/albums/oo48/Le_Deacon/IMG_5538_zps8d991971.jpg http://i360.photobucket.com/albums/oo48/Le_Deacon/IMG_5539_zps4ffd6e80.jpg http://i360.photobucket.com/albums/oo48/Le_Deacon/IMG_5540_zps5a7fd3a8.jpg http:...

Keep at it mate, almost there.

You've captured a wonderful selection there, nice photos Kokpit.

Wow all stunning builds. However I'm slowly returning to modelling after a LOOOOOONG time away and I can't decide if seeing those beautiful models as either A - To try and match the quality of workmanship of the above models B - Freak out at never being good enough to match the workmanship above.

I've always brush painted and airbrushed acrylics and see no reason for me to ever change to enamels. Then you can only be about 10 because those of us who'd have been doing this for half a century (aaaaaah) only had enamels or paints made using crushed blackberries! Nope, I just try to keep the da...
