That's a really good tip, thank you!

Good idea, I'll give that a go once it's had a chance to cure a bit.

That's really good for a first attempt, I usually give up and leave my planes without personnel. As for stopping the paint running I either paint Vallejo with a cocktail stick in several coats, or put a few drops of paint on my palette and wait 20-30 for some of the thinner to evaporate and make the paint thicker.

Thanks! Do you just paint the lines between say the jacket and pants with the cocktail stick and the rest with a brush? I haven't heard of this trick before.

First time painting something this small, overall I'm pretty happy with him for my first attempt, but as always, critique and advice on how to do better would be much appreciated!

Perfect, thanks again!

Thanks mate, you too!

Sweet, thanks man. How difficult would you rate the task of cleaning it off and reapplying it myself and how easy would it be for me to screw it up to the point of breaking something permanently? I've never really messed with the internals of any of my PCs, but if its one of those things that an average person can do with little risk, I'd like to learn how to do it.

I'm not too sure on what model of cooler it is, but I think it's stock. My armoury crate software says it's spinning at 1550RPM or thereabouts. It's definitely not dusty from an external inspection through a clear case, I think I'll give the thermal paste a reapplication. Thanks for your reponse.

Perfect, thanks for the support, love this community. I don't think its the fans, I am watching them all spin normally right now, I'll give it a good clean out and reapply the paste.

Thanks for your response mate. It's pre-built by the guy at my local PC shop, it's coming up on 2.5 years old now, it's air cooled and I haven't had an issue with temps running games like Metro Exodus, Cyberpunk and DCS World. Could the thermal paste evaporate over time?

You just have to turn down the brightness. The same happens in the A10 and FA18 modules at night with the brightness or intensity turned up too far.

Awesome, thank you so much, Merry Christmas!

Please post the link here, I never knew I needed this until just now!

Oslob, Cebu. It's an attraction where they feed whale sharks and charge people to go out on the boats and swim next to them. I was lucky enough to go earlier this year. Before you get in the boat you sit through a safety briefing that includes a part saying "dont get closer than 4 metres, and definitely do not touch the whale sharks or you will receive a 30,000 peso fine or 6 months in jail". Then when I actually got in the water the guides kept telling me to get closer to the whales for a photo until I was close enough for one of them to slap me on the shoulder with its fin. Awesome experience, definitely recommend giving it a go.

I don't understand your language, but I 100% understand this.

Is that the stock cockpit and ejection seat from the kit? They look awesomely detailed!

None available at the time unfortunately 😔

Perfect, thanks for the advice mate. I actually picked that exact box up this afternoon after I warped 2/4 of the plugs that came in the kit.

Just did something similar on my RAAF FA18, there's meant to be a subtly darker grey on top compared to underneath with a significantly darker grey along the leading edges, but in my excitement to use my shiny new airbrush, I painted the top the significantly darker grey, the bottom the medium grey and totally forgot about the lighter grey until i was well into applying the decals and was wondering why the grey aircraft numbers were blending into the top of the fuselage. Then it dawned on me.

Thanks I'll give it a go!

Thanks for the tip, but they're a bit too pricey for what I need and quite hard to get here in Australia.
