  1. Dirty ol yoke, Looks smashing all tooled up as well. I only made the Heller one years ago and did it in Spanish CS. Academy kits are fab and go together quite well too.
  2. Curving them is the thing though especially from a flat sheet it can be difficult.
  3. Pay tell how did you do the Corrugated roof? Is that Printed too?
  4. Holy cow this is just on another level. , I will be following this one, Just hope it goes well for them. Serious Engineering and Though here!
  5. Sad to see that happening, I fear for when the motors start packing up or the boards go in the babies and later products.....where will you be able to go. The Small Scale lads like MM, Rails, Hattons, Kernow now, KR etc are doing excellent models but spares will be a big issue later on. Hopefully I will be proved wrong. Nice to hear Rapido are looking after you, They are some lads in all fairness!
  6. Thanks Mate, Yep few white metal Figures to add in for sure!
  7. TBH I would not expect Irish Shops to Stock Buffers and detail parts but would be cool but I expect Just not the scope or lads out there that need that. Some Parkside stuff would be great and Just basic everyday items would be great. Brexit and the new VAT rules have really made a bollix of the trade now for ordinary folk and has added cost on big time.
  8. Tried learning the ol german for me visits, failed Good shop in Hamburg We there is couple and I found the lads very helpful and spoke to me in good English.This one just off the S Bahn. https://www.hesse-hamburg.de/en/
  9. A few Gratuitous shots in the sunshine to see what the weather was like that I put on yesterday. Few more bits done, The Lifeboat davits rigged and the Life boat sorted with grab ropes around the sides. The Gun Platform Davit also rigged and there is another Davit on the main deck Rigged.
  10. "limit their purchases to what's available in Irish model shops" There in lies the big issue, Popped into the LMS the other day very little paint, Ones I needed not there (Humbrol) Incomplete range of Humbrol Sprays (went to Halfords and dropped 40 notes) no Balsa wood, super Super glues, none of the KS brass I needed. Model Railway Shelves were sparse I could say. I said it here before there is a good opportunity to capture the Irish based UK buyers here with a properly stocked shop as it will get daft buying in small stuff from the UK.
  11. Might be late to the Party on this one but what a Fab idea! check from 4.45 mins. Interesting Video too. Wonder so the A class has a disappearing Fran in it. Seriously good looking loco to.
  12. They might be adding in the Freight cost to the invoice total as Vat would be paid on both these together.
  13. Thanks for that, placed and order with Cornwall Model Boat a few days ago. They are after sending this now with Fed Ex. God Knows what I will get caught for a handling charge now, It won't be €3.50 that for sure. Ar$e.
  14. Man Alive, What a place to visit!. I'd have a Great Holiday with you kid!!, leave the missus at home the next time I see there is a Paddle Steamer on the lake too, Is that in operation?. If Only I visited Germany years ago to savour these delights!
  15. Hello IM, can you please advise how Much is the Handling charge? do they separate this figure out?
  16. Flipping unreal! Jealous! This guy does a Fab Selection of then and now videos of WWII Germany and Post WWII. Still a lot there if you keep the eyes peeled.
  17. Jesus I'd love to be sipping some Bavarian nectar now in a huge glass.....surrounded by the mountains. Pop over to Mr H's to check the View from the eagles next....Not done it yet but will be!
  18. Front handrails being done over the past 2 days also the Bulwark supports are in....
  19. Might Stuff, Some good stuff in Germany, 103 is lovely. Cant beat those colours.
  20. Davc I think had some snazzy stuff joing the boards on his Layout to join up. might of been all straight sections though. After also doing a baseboard join on a curve I used PCB board with Rails soldered to them. Not got round to cutting them through just yet. This is behind the scenic area so is heavy duty.
  21. Wait till the A's come through, People will start buying these again bit time so they may even go up!
  22. What the hell is this ? German WWII smoking Haus for soldiers of Dubious morals?
  23. I'll do up a short 50 Minute you tube video on fitting this if it suits folks.
  24. Wow look a the white band going over the raised details not even a bit of overspray, Remarkable.
