Enjoying the show. Merry Christmas!

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

Same to you!

A week ago I received mine. Using club discount and accrued points I paid the princely sum of £3:95 (postage)
Am looking forward to 2024 for building

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

thats a proper yorkshire bargain price
have a great new year

[@BJGreen-yj7nd]

@yorkshiremanmodels thanks. I thought so too. I'm a Yorkshire man (Halifax) now living across the pennines in Blackpool

[@1hackmodeller557]

Airfix need to fix those paint pots!

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

its something you would think they would look at but its been going on for years and nothing happens

[@stuart-xt3jo]

nah then lad merry xmas from Sheffield thanks for the videos

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

merry xmas to you as well pal
glad you enjoy the videos

[@davidjones1588]

Those pots are a nightmare be loads better if they included the dropper bottles instead of those pots. As for the kit looks a cracking set. Merry Christmas to you and happy new year 🎉

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

agree with you on the dropper bottles its about time airfix sorted it
and a merry xmas to you pal

[@robertgarner11]

Dropper bottles would be much better as new modellers would have them to use on the next one. And the next one, etc!

Si pilotabas un F4F Wildcat y aparecía un zero date por muerto. En cambio su sucesor el F6F Hellcat mucho cuidadito con el que derribaba zeros por un tubo..

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

honestly i think both aircraft are good and in the right hands either could win in a dual

[@marksixofone4104]

Very nice review YM, Have built the Wildcat and It's a fantastic little kit, yet to build the Zero though/

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

cheers
i enjoyed the zero when i built that before

[@robertgarner11]

That’s shocking with the paints. I wonder how many new modellers gave up after getting paints like these?

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

if i was new to the hobby and got the dry paints i think i would just throw it back in the box and call it quits
airfix really need to sort the paints out

[@stevesmodelbuilds5473]

Yeah, half the time they're dried up...

[@jaws848]

Those paints are garbage.

[@yorkshiremanmodels]

yes they are and it seems now every kit that has them paints i am lucky to get half of them usable

[@jaws848]

@@yorkshiremanmodels fully agreed...the worst culprit is the white as even when its good ,white paint is notorious for not going on streak free .if i have to use white paint i now use it from a spray can....the difference is unreal...if i buy 1 of these starter sets i buy the paints again from either another manufactuer or gen 2 Humbrol...i refuse to use these paints.
