Modelling
Military or civil, triplanes, biplanes or monoplanes, props, jets or helicopters...models in here.
From Apollo and Soyuz, to Gerry Anderson, Irwin Allen, Star Wars and Trek to Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica and those strange, doe-eyed Japanese school girls...to any model kits you can think of, that only exists in imagination.
Millitary miscellany; Tanks, Trucks and Landrovers etc.
If it goes on, or under, the wet stuff, it's in here.
Whole chunks of real life...scaled down, figures in all scales...even footballers!
Frst impressions do count. Let us know what you think of your kits - new and old.
Time to pimp them rides!
