Thanks Nigel. Back on the Audaxes.

The Aeroclub m/g and scarf ring at the top and the AZ one below.

I can't say I'm enjoying these, maybe its the multimedia and adherence of the cyano making them outside my comfort zone.

You get a spare propeller with the AZ kit :)

You're doing fine with them Ratch. I'm not a huge fan of cyano myself, I dunno...there's just something about it I'm not that keen of.
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Work is the curse of the modelling classes!

Great stuff, the Audaxes are coming along very nicely and I really like the look of that Corvette 8-)

Without suitable serials for the under-wings, I thought I'd have a go at hand painting them - how hard could it be :???:
I used an old trick of masking to the height of the lettering :ha:

Then brush-painted free-hand :shock:

Not perfect by a long chalk :evil:
