I don’t have words, only a long low whistle. Here is a totally inadequate emoji instead 👍 Trevor

The Grenadier I saw was beige. Of all the colours… Trevor

Saw my first Ineos Grenadier the other day. My impression is that it is slightly shorter and wider than the old Defender. It looks very nice in real life. Trevor

Thinking of building multiple Harriers 1/72
Max Headroom replied to Stratto's topic in Aircraft Cold War
I’d forgotten that Hasegawa did an early GR.1. I think the FROG one was ‘inspired’ by it. Trevor -
Thinking of building multiple Harriers 1/72
Max Headroom replied to Stratto's topic in Aircraft Cold War
Other manufacturers of Harriers/Sea Harriers in 1/72 include Matchbox - very basic Fujimi - well regarded at the time. Stickies may need replacing. Hasegawa - same as Fujimi above Bobcat/Humbrol - a snap fit T2 or T4. Basic very simplified with no hangy bits at all. (C Scale provided white metal necessaries). The Esci wing was a drop fit onto the fuselage…… Sword have also done a series of two seaters Airfix - the original 1960’s GR.1 modded in the early 80’s to GR.3. Generous ordnance provision Frog and the Frogsspawn - crude Pegasus T.2 conversion. To be grafted on the original Airfix kit. ‘A collector’s item’ Some of the kits, like Fujimi and Hasegawa and of course Esci/Italeri, have break joints for the Harrier and Sea Harrier. Others may be able to give better insight into the specifics of the kits above. HTH Trevor -

How the heck did I miss this? This is proper modelling this is. I’ll be the one in the back of the room going ‘oooh’ Trevor- 171 replies

Revell’s 1/32 Scale Mosquito B.IV
Max Headroom replied to Max Headroom's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
@224 Peter it’s in hiatus at the moment it I fully intend to carry on. I have never stopped thinking things that need doing and how to do them. Unfortunately I have run out of mojo and Hannants don’t stock it. One model completed in two years🤣 @Cklasse I’m guessing you’ll finish yours before I do mine 😁 Trevor -

Not seen mentioned here, but the first F-16 in Ukrainian markings has been made public. https://www.outono.net/elentir/2024/02/09/the-first-photo-of-an-f-16-fighter-with-ukrainian-insignia-and-the-details-it-has-revealed/ Colour scheme not all that surprising. I assume they will receive two digit identifiers once delivered? Trevor

F312 - Anatra DS Anasal *** Finished ***
Max Headroom replied to AdrianMF's topic in FROG Squad II GB
I’ve got one of these tucked in tha back of the shelf of doom. This was one of four ‘Russian Frog’ kits released by CMS in London under the Red Star brand. Sold all together one of the others I think was a LaGG3? Probably moulded in the U.K. before the moulds were to be shipped out to Russia Trevor -

Max Headroom replied to Alpha Delta 210's topic in Aviation Photography
some nice airframes there and it looks like they are in good hands. They inherited some Javelins as technical airframes when the RAF pulled out. I wonder if any lurk in a corner somewhere! Trevor -
Why did 1/48 scale never take off for armor?
