Hi Christian, not building it at the moment but I'm eyeing it as a possible stress reliever for a couple of builds that are whipping my arse ! I don't recall ever seeing the movie you referenced but it sounds interesting. According to my reference it was not uncommon for these aircraft to...

1/48 Italeri F7F-3 Tigercat Yes, this is an oldie but I was curious to see what if any changes Italeri had made to it, and yes this is the kit that stigmatized an entire generation of modelers on the use of rubber tires. :o History Based on the earlier Grumman XP-50 that was eventually...

I consider PE to be in the same category as wall paper and neck ties, all designed by some sadist to torture men.

While not fun it has become old hat for me, due to a family history I get to do this every three years. Really hated it early on as the prep solution was really hard to get down. More recently my GI guy uses Miralax mixed with Crystal Lite or Gatoraid and except for the volume you need to drink...

Nice ! :thumbsup :thumbsup

LOL, so something with 10 engines would work then :woohoo: Too bad I sold my B-36 kit years ago...then again maybe not ! The two kits I would consider for this build would be the 1/72 Bv 222 and the 1/48 He 177. Both have about 25" wing spans. The 222 would probably be too easy as it would be...

10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY CAMPAIGN "SUGGESTION WITHDRAWN Didn't mean to be a wet blanket, I liked the Wellington but I want to save the remaining display space I have for other big kits, not a duplicate of that behemoth. I do have a couple large kits I have been saving for the anniversary or major...

Near as I have been able to determine the 1/48 Trumpy Wellington was the first build I published here, not going to do another one of those thank you !

Thanks guys ! Bob, the paint is on and waiting for a clear coat. I got bogged down in some home maintenance projects but may get the clear coat on this weekend.

Pit Road 1/144 Me 323D-4 The Me 323 was the result of a 1940 German requirement for a large assault glider in preparation for Operation Sea Lion, the projected invasion of Great Britain. The DFS 230 light glider had already proven its worth in the Battle of Fort Eben-Emael in Belgium (the...
