  1. Can you please delete my account.

  2. Very nice ,getting the Hurrricane Mk1 ,Eastern Front kit ,so i can do one with Romanian markings.
  3. Just spotted some Tamiya ,seatbelt and IP online ,under the 1/48 LOOK label .How come none of you told me about them ? Trying to keep them all for yourselves ? For shame . Yes ,I got the name wrong ,should have been Eduard instead of Tamiya . Yes it was mean as a bit of fun ,should i have put a smiley face at the end of the post to point that out ?
  4. Why were they painted yellow on the rear of the prop,was this for the benefit of the pilot ,maybe to show how fast the prop was spinning . Sorry ,don't laugh if i am way off target here .

    Tamiya

    Just spotted some Tamiya ,seatbelt and IP online ,under the 1/48 LOOK label .How come none of you told me about them ? Trying to keep them all for yourselves ? For shame .
  6. Hi ,thanks for the reply .In the middle of a large build of 1/72 Aircraft ,6 Hurricanes ,five post war RAF Jets ,two captured USAAF planes ,two Bristol Blenheim's and a ME110 . Might get done by the summer ,haha.
  7. How many DC-3/C-47s are still flying ? Would nice to see a couple of hundred flying together .
  8. Building the Airfix 1/72 E E Lightning ,any one got a suggestion as to which of those three paint brands match Humbrol 163 . Or which ratio of which paints i can mix my own . Thanks
  9. Me too ,got the Academy and the Dragon kits in the stash .
  10. Very nice so far ,got the Zevzda boxing ,i think they are the same kit ,or it might be the Tamiya . Also got a 1/48 kit in the stash ,i like the look of the plane ,reminds me of a King Cobra .
  11. Well ,the paint has all gone .Don't know which genius in the model making world first thought of the idea . Back to the spits ,there is one hell of a difference between the lower wing of the two kits where they fit in to the bottom of the fuselage . Might have to chop the sticky out bit off the ICM ,and stick it on the Hasagawa ,plus the rear wheel is different . Why of why can't kit makers get it right in the first place ?
  12. Very nice ,i was surprised that the FAA used them in Europe .As i have posted a few months ago ,got 6 B B s on the go ,five Tamiya and a Special hobby . Planning to do 2 RAF Far East ,1 Dutch ,2 USN and the Special Hobby as a Finnish airforce . Don't know why i like the Buffalo so much , at the start all i wanted to do was a yellow wings and a Finnish one .
  13. Fancy buying this as an Christmas present for myself , Trumpeter 1/35 . .
  14. On the real Aircraft ,they seem a bit dangerous to the ground crew ,they could forget to duck under them and get a nasty cut ,as well as tearing them off the side of the plane .
  15. Really enjoyed building this model ,in the middle of the Trumpeter 152 mm Howitzer (ML-20 ) to put on the back .Finished most of it ,being held up by the PE shield mounts.In various reviews i have read they are a nightmare to get right ,and Trumpeter don't help matters by the lack of info in the instructions . I really like doing towed Artillery .
  16. "I give you good deal " As the Malta taxi drivers are wont to say 😁Yes very nice models and a nice Museum ,there are a couple of others .
  17. I know that ,just joking .Anyway found some in the spares box that will do ,they might have come from the Revell P51D i posted a few weeks ago . Just got to cut the bomb holding arm things off and good to go .
  18. Very nice ,there is one in the Supermarine Southampton Museum ,can't quite grasp how big the thing is until you next to it.
  19. Runner ? Like wot seb cole is 😂.I have got some ICM Spitfire ones in the spares might have a look at them ,thanks for the advice though .
  20. Hi ,the thing you stick on the bottom of the wing then attach the bomb to it .
  21. Hi ,in the middle of the Italeri 1/48 A36 Apache ,glued the wings together last night ,found i am missing a Bomb Shackle ,one already in place ,don't know what to do . Should i take the one already in place off and fill the holes in ? Finding this model making lark a bit stressful to be honest .😩😩
  22. Hi ,thanks for the replies ,a sighting aid ,i had a feeling it was that ,but it not in front of the MG .I too have an thing for the 38(t) and the various things built on it . In an earlier post i said i had three on the go ,turns out one is a Wespe ,the other two are Marders .Also have the Italeri and the Alan Gespard ,i am going to build side by side ,the Alan kit seems to be missing stages in the instructions ,going to compare them as i build . A few others in the stash .
  23. Very nice ,got two on the go at the moment ,going to do one as a far east one the other as a Rumanian .
