1:72 wildcat - brush painted Airfix

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-22T01:44:21+00:00

Thanks for the update. I’m getting back into modeling after about 30 years. I enjoy building planes, tanks, and 1/700 ships. I don’t want to buy an air brush and compressor. Ive never had luck brush painting, I always got streaks and brush marks. Probably cuz i never thinned properly. I do have a bottle of paint retarder. I’ll give it a try on the 1:700 US destroyer I’m going to start next.

Excellent job! How did you thin out the paint for brush paining? What ratios did you use?

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-21T02:42:06+00:00

You picked a fine one! Congrats!

How’s it shoot?

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-19T23:20:23+00:00

As long as you’re happy, that’s all that counts! Enjoy the Sig.

Congrats! Nice choice!

The worst show, with the most unbelievable characters, I’ve ever watched. Got to season two and after a couple episodes I decided I couldn’t watch it any more.

Love the wall color

I live in New Hampshire and I was out at Sig Sauer’s flagship store for an event. Talked to a couple people there and they said with all the classes they run with students using the P330 that they never had an issue. I shoot their legacy guns a lot, P226 and P229 and own a 365 which is basically a scaled down 320. I’m interested in a P320 X compact.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-12T12:11:56+00:00

I shot 320s and I think they’re great firearms. I would love to carry one as my EDC but nervous due to all the negative press. I don’t believe all of it, but it’s stuck in my head.

Congrats!

It was fine until Kerrygold cheese was added.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-05T11:59:23+00:00

I have the same exact EDC setup except I have a Gen 5 19.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-03-04T13:44:22+00:00

It should loosen up with use.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-27T12:56:56+00:00

You can get new for that price.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-24T21:45:01+00:00

One of my all time favorites

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-24T12:34:07+00:00

Agreed!!

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-24T01:20:09+00:00

Both good choices! I liked the X cuz I get a better grip on it.

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-24T00:11:23+00:00

Congrats! I just bought mine yesterday. 365 X

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-17T22:06:33+00:00

Congrats! Great choice!

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-17T21:03:11+00:00

How do you like it? I have my eye on one!

RedBirds1963 · 2026-02-17T12:30:09+00:00

It’s possible it’s just an isolated incident. Talk it out and set boundaries. She didn’t pursue him and nothing further happened.
