Brilliant paint job. -
Hi. Thanks for this post. Like you I enjoy the builds and I always seem to struggle with the painting as its my least favourite part of an build. My nearest RC shop is about miles away , on Saturday I visited them to find they do not stock Tamiya poly paint, so I opted for an alternative brand. I should have done a little more research but I was hoping to get my paint on before this weekend. I fancy a Beetle , not sure if it will ne Blitzer, standard or rally yet though. Please keep posting updates of your progress.

Hi. I always fancied a WW, never got one until the WW2 then built it to standard spec used it a couple of times in the garden got bored with RC so sold it on. Since then been in and out of the hobby a couple of times. I have lunchbox that is going into its third colour of paint having been pulled out of the loft last week. My Scania needs finishing. But I am looking for another project. Yours have inspired me, love the WW garage.

Hi. I have not been to Rother Valley Country Park for years, I was wondering if they have a good area that could be used? On a positive I have been able to get some paint on my LB shell. Also , been looking at other peoples builds and ideas for another project. I'm thinking my Scania is going to have to wait in bits for a while.

Hi, I have a part built lunch Box I have had several over the years but usually sell them because they don't get used. I'm not into racing just some fun with like minded individuals. I am just to the North of Chesterfield

Had a great afternoon at RC Models Direct on Saturday afternoon. Plenty of trucks to watch and nice people who were happy to talk about the hobby.

Hi Backlash, thanks for all the Face Book links, although I am on here as EssexBill I have now relocated to Derbyshire. Thanks for your comment Mad Ax. I have requested to join several of the groups as its great to see what others are building and doing.

Hello. Yes I am on Face Book, found South West Truckers, and a Group in Leicester, although their page seems to be out of date.

Hello. I am thinking about buying a Tamiya R/C truck, if I do I will add the MFU so my investment will be £500-£600. Having built many of the cars, and 3 tanks, I know the pleasure that is obtained from the build. But with a truck once its built its fine to run it around the house a few times, and that can get boring, I don't want to end up on a shelf covered in layers of dust. So my question is who uses theirs, do owners meet up and if so where? Thanks everyone.
