Good start mate. I like that levelling thinner myself. I usually stock up, at the shows.

If I were to build a Nissan, this would be the one. Love the flares and the grille.

@bozzer, same as I. I think I still have two full 400ml bottles.
@Spanjaard, you have had the kit since before Christmas, what's keeping you?
Thanks Kyle and Bill, there is some paint on her!

IPMS show today, for me. Time to stock up on the important stuff. You can guarantee that I'll come back with a bag full of things, that I don't really need, but it's what we do 😉

Glue is soooo expensive

I always get a bottle of Tamiya Extra thin, when I see any. It's a must have, essential! But I can only get certain paints and thinners, at the shows. I try my best to support the vendors, and it's always good to have a little chat about what's coming out, in the future. This is the first show in 3 years, so I expect it to be busy. Needless to say, I'm up early and very excited! It's only 40 minutes away from my house, but I'm making a list, so I don't forget anything, lol.

Its all good spanjaard I haven't started mine yet either
I just fund out about the group build
The other day
I spent yesterday thinking about what kit to build
And still haven't found out how to like the build to the group build pages
I decided to do this to motivate myself and I have a date it has to be done by
But yes all here are doing some butiful builds in record time
I see it as a new challenge for myself and a fun Time
Working on something in a group
Interesting what all are doing
I think we got some very good builders on this build
I will be happy just to cross the line lol

Enjoy the day Bozzer! Don't buy anything I would've!
Jv, when editing the Album, there should be a 'link to event' type of choice.

Thanks Martin. I'll let you guide our good friend, through the process, while I get ready. I'm just emptying the back of my van out, for prospective purchases 😛

Bringing people together and helping eachother!
Even though we're all mad, the world could learn a lot from us?
Peace out, gentlemen and enjoy your day 🙂

Well lads, I actually listened to JV. The temptation was hard, and you bloody lot had me looking at cars, especially Mustangs, but I resisted the urge. Even an old italeri peterbilt 378 at a bargain price, and Kyle, a still sealed, Lady Butterfly Superliner, for £38, Brand new! I stuck to my guns and bought paint and two bottles of Mr Leveller. However, the Leeds show is coming up in February, and I'm definitely making no promises 😉

It was a busy day. Painted the Group C Toyota white (again), put some Calsonic blue on the race GT-R and matt black and semi-gloss black on the regular GT-R
Thanks a lot guys!

I bought that airbrush with the 0.5mm nozzle for car bodies. I couldn't get my 0.4mm to work without very visible lines.
