Thanks Soren. Yeah I realised the error in the fire extinguisher. I'll paint it grey or dunkelgelb when I build a dio.

Hi James, superb aging work, even if personally I'm not a fan of extreme aging. But as they say, each to their own. In any case, well done. 👏👏

I'm with you on that Stephen. The best looking jet of all time in my opinion. And to think it lasted until the 90's is incredible. Looks like it stared in Thunderbirds 🙂

That's exactly what it looks like, straight out of the thunderbirds!

Hi mr James,your tiger paint scheme I think leans towards a Russian winter.You may know about night shift on YouTube,a big help to me watching his videos,the one about the tree was very good,as they are all very excellent.I struggle with figures too,especially the standard figures,have invested in a lot resin figures,iam told that they are easier to paint.I will probably practice a little more with the standard figures to use up my stash,and then start painting the odd one or two resin figures.keep at it with the figures you will get better the more you paint them.l was putting far to much paint on my brush,which didn’t help.good luck with the figures and diorama,looking forward to seeing it

Yeah, its the Russian front I was leaning towards. But then I saw a couple of excellent Ardennes Dio's but worried about the trees. When I saw your superb tree, it gave me hope again 🙂 But I think I'll stick to the Eastern front.
Nightshift is an excellent channel. Its where I learnt to chip, weather and apply washes. I'm now trying to do figures but like you, end up putting on too much paint, then it looks lumpy...errugh. I've recently switched to Vallejo as Tamiya paints are awful for figure painting I find.
Thanks for your tips and encouragement Gary. Its very much appreciated from experienced modellers like yourself.
Cheers, Justin

Hi Mr James sorry missed your question,i use ready mixed Bartoline all purpose filler from home bargins.Around £1.50.When dry i put vms smart mud on top,as you put it on with an old brush add a very very small amount of water to help you spred it.Then you can add small stones and grit.good luck its all a learning curve.

Thanks Alexander. The kit was nice to build. Barely any flash to speak of and the fit was good. The wing spare was a little bent on my kit and I had to fill the gaps to the fuselage. I recommend it 🙂
