Shimmer and shine...

Hopefully you can see the purple to green change.

Hasegawa Sea Harrier FRS Mk1 (1/72)

First Hasegawa kit and I rather liked it.

Fitment is very good all around for a sub £15 kit.

A lot of hard point options. Sidewinders, Sea Vixens, dumb bombs and drop tanks.

Lots of livery options, if slightly cluttered decal instructions.

I'm definitely going to get some more, might even try a few of their helicopters.

Now it's the right colour (or close enough)

Amazing how much just adding colour to a model changes it in your mind's eye.

Before it was pale grey plastic, now it's the aircraft I saw on the TV, in books and games growing up.

Hasegawa Sea Harrier 1/72 in case anyone is wondering.

Problems with my headset mic.

SOLVED

Hi folks.

I have a G7 HE Wired for Xbox and it doesn't seem to like my Razor Black shark V2 microphone.

Good quality for sound and I can hear my friends ok but they can't hear me, yes it's all un-muted.

I've tried using game chat, party chat and discord call and tried changing sound suppression one and off, adjusting mic monitoring (to high there and my GOD the feedback) and turning the jack to find a sweet spot but no joy.

Are they just incompatible (the jack doesn't go all the way in), is it a controller problem, an Xbox problem or is my headset knackered??

TIA

ICM Ghost of Kiev Mig-29 (1/72)

What a job this one was... The decals were a pain and I don't know if that's just an ICM problem or if it was cause some of them are HUGE. And the varnish seems to have damaged some of them as well 😞.

Still glad I did it, cool plane, cool paint job AND supported a small local (ISH) store.

Churchill Mk7

Seeing as you liked my Chieftain last time, thought I'd share my latest model. I know it's not as striking a paint job as that but it still looks good.

Churchill Mk7

Did you know; Prime Minister Winston Churchill when shown the tank named after him he said "You've named it after me because it's useless."

Or words to that effect.

Fun fact, this was less stressful than a single session of playing this stupid game.

Chieftain Mk5 in Berlin Brigade pattern...

Why do I do dumb stuff like this?? I could have just done a flat green or a two tone pattern or even dessert yellow with some simple weathering and detail work... But nooooo I gotta pick the hardest damn thing I could find...
