Thanks a lot guys. Appreciated There are only 2 Hobby shops in Regensburg and from what I gathered they are only for trains and RC models. So I guess I will depend on the enormous amount of plastic dealers online in Germany.

Thanks again Gary very kind of you. Almost done with the little bird. Not sure if I will be able to do the weathering in time (because of the move) but it is basically ready. Here are the pictures (sorry the lighting was not very good): Cheers Alex

Thanks Gary I had some time off and could make some progress in painting the interior of the first Bis (this one will be all resin) and assemblying the UTI. Here are the pictures. Hope you like it. Cheers Alex

What a nice build Paul. I am so happy that you have not had any further damage in your house, a micro tornado sounds scary enough. I guess the way the climate is going we will be getting more and more of these crazy weather situations in the future. I love the Defiant, there is one at the RAF...

Thank you so much. Always a pleasure to be here among friends!

That is quite right. Some people just carry a bad vibe with them. Not much the case on the chap I was mentioned, the thing is that after 5 years of being in charge of the whole department I get a phone call on 03/31 last year saying "we're sorry but you are out of luck, a new boss is beginning...

Thanks Paul So this is the beginning of the MiG-15 UTI. Just the cockpit so far but lots and lots of PE. I love so much detailling. I had to really squeeze the end otherwise the fuselage halves wouldn't fit. But all is good. Thanks for looking and cheers Alex

Thanks much appreciated @jknaus in this case my friend a door has closed and a complete penthouse opened up! Salary is going to be triple of what I was making here. Besides it is a beautiful city- take a look: https://www.regensburg.de/en Cheers Alex

Now I got it. I am a bit slow, not enough brain power left on the hard drive... I don't think that the camo looks Italian at all, in the 30's Italians were either using the Ivory White (bianco avorio) or a very light blue on all their planes. The mottled and squiggly camos started only in the...

It will be. Wait until you see all that is going into those 3 little buggers. I am excited about this project!

Ain't that the truth... unfortunately

As far as I know this is a whole american aircraft from the Granville Brothers (thus Gee Bee) in MA. There were quite a few Italian designs in the 30's with the cockpit blending on the rudder but I thinks this is an all American aircraft. Caproni Ca-125 Breda Ba.33 Caproni "STIPA"...

That is a very nice model. Looking forward to it.

Hello again, Since I am back on the modelling mojo, I decided to start working on a long project of mine - a diorama of North Korean MiG-15 with lots (and I really mean it) of extras like flaps, cockpits and in one of them the whole engine with a dismounted fuselage. However, to ease back into...

And as for the little bug, here is the progress with some painting on:

Thank you my dear friends If it was deserved or not I do not know, but it was hell necessary - I was demoted here in Ulm with no reason (at least none was told me) in exchange for a chap way less qualified than me and who has proven to be a complete A...hole (sorry Bob). That meant a pay cut...

Thanks a lot Bob After a very extensive and tiring selection process I was unanimously selected as the new chairman of the departments of pediatric surgery and orthopedics and Professor of pediatric surgery at the University of Regensburg, in Bavaria. It is a huge responsibility and a very...

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well! Again my appologies for being absent from the forum for so long. New job, moving cities, tremendously more work and responsibilities and unfortunately very little time for modelling. However, I could not miss the MMM 24, this is always my favorite...

I am so glad to hear that. I hope she gets the last 2% back soon. Fingers crossed and all the best.

I Just saw it Paul, amazing! What a build, and what an aircraft. Italian design is always so futuristic. YOu did an excellent job, congrats. Not worth the oxygen molecules I wasted trying to get it to fit. I just realized that the glue must have come off when I took the pictures and the canopy...
