  1. I have built most of the Hasegawa egg planes Inspired by these I tried to build some of my own If you managed to come to the end. Happy Easter.
  2. Hi guys and girls, So firstly I’m not 100% sure this is in the right place, but hey ho here we go anyway! So I’m about to loose the mancave 😭, as our daughter really does need her own bedroom soon and we need our own space back! 😃 But prior to this I want to do a quick project and build three “Cute” planes in order to make her a custom mobile! The chosen kits are the following: Tiger Models Cute BF-109 by Neal, on Flickr Tiger Models Cute Spitfire by Neal, on Flickr Meng Kids Lancaster Bomber. by Neal, on Flickr My wife will be joining in and will be building the Spitfire! Which means a lot to me. Also these kits will be painted up in some nice a bright colours: Pink, Purple, Blue, etc... and will probably have some fantasy camo schemes. That is all for now folks, take care and happy modelling! Neal
  3. A bit of fun. Saw the egg plane for the F-4EJ and though it would not be too hard to make a F-4M. Well yes and no, hacked off the top of the tail, glued on a bit of scrap plastic. Easy. Then cut the nose down and was left with the gaping hole in the bottom, after Inhad joined up the fuselage. Bum. So with a lot of patience and a bit of luck got it filled and sanded smooth enough to make a FGR.2 egg plane. Seen here with his bigger brother. Enjoy.
  4. It's that time of year again to show off my plastic shelf fillers for 2014. If you're browsing this thread, you must be looking for a cure for insomnia, so I hope this helps … The start of the year saw the "finish" of my "Harrier 20/20 Vision" project, completing the remaining four Harriers. Next year the new phase begins! First up was the Spanish Navy Harrier EAV-8B II (Monogram 1/48th) … … and the other variant flown now by the Spanish Navy, the Harrier EAV-8B II Plus (Hasegawa, 1/48th) … … crossing the Atlantic, here's a Harrier AV-8B II Plus with the USMC (Hasegawa, 1/48th) … … and to complete the set, the Naval Strike Wing Harrier GR.7 (Hasegawa, 1/48th). You can see the complete set (to-date) here. What to do next? Well, it was the 100th Anniversary of the start of the Great War, so it made sense to build some more models of that era and after all, I am a member of the IPMS Great War SIG. First was the RAF SE5a w/Wolsey Viper (Roden 1/48th) ... … and then an Italian Nieuport Ni-17 (Eduard, 1/48th) … … followed by a Fokker D.VII, one of the mounts of Herman Goerring (Monogram, 1/48th) … … and to complete the series, a LVG Roland C.II in a very-unlikely-to-be-accurate rendition of the "Western Front, Summer 1917" scheme in the weekend edition kit (Eduard, 1/48th). Finding the need to escape from the rigours of rigging and super-glueing everything but the right thing, I thought I'd go for some very light relief. Yes, I went to work on an egg! Building one from the box contents was dismissed as being a little boring, so I went for eggsageration with some light scrambling and poached a few ideas from other people's builds ... (right, that's enough of that ). First of all I built "Lady Angela", the name given to the P-47 Thunderbolts flown by Lt William C Diman whilst with the 395th Fighter Squadron ... (Hasegawa Egg Plane) … the next egg was the TBF Avenger which I "converted" into a TBM-3E Avenger "Fire Bomber" with the Californian Hemet Valley Fire Service. A change to the rear cockpit and a facsimilie of the front of the bomb / torpedo bay to represent the water tank completed the customisation ... (Hasegawa Egg Plane) … and the last in this three minute egg mini series was a captured butcher bird, a Focke-Wulf Fw190 flown by Major Jim Dalglish, wearing a suitably bright colour scheme of red and lemon yellow, presumably in the hopes that his fellow air force pilots would not shoot him down? … (Hasegawa Egg Plane) A pick-up-and-drop summer build was the entry for the West Middlesex Scale Model Club's 6 Month Challenge competition. This year we asked to do something with a KIS-5 truck (least, I think that's what it was). Anyway, this is what my glue-sniffing brain came up with, "Keep It Silly Stunts" ... a Revell SE5A completed the set-up ... I then returned to the Harrier fold with a Harrier GR3 in arctic camouflage, but this got stuck on the back burner for a number of different reasons and for some more light relief I decided to team up with Panzer Vor! and do an egg plane/egg ship diorama for the Middle Wallop model show. For the aircraft, we chose the Mitsubishi A6M Zero ... (Hasegawa Egg Plane) And for the ship, the Fujimi Akagi ... (Fujimi Chibi-Maru Kantai series) And this is the diorama they ended up in … sadly Dave's Zero didn't make it off the deck after he soaked the wing in glue to make it stick (or something like that). This will be added soon as he now has a replacement kit. The ship is the Yamoto, another in the Fujimi series and apparently not an easy build. Dave - mine went together easy - you picked the wrong option! It should be noted that SHAR2 was particularly unimpressed with this diorama for some strange reason! Something to do with it not being right and proper! Personally, I thought it was a shame there were only 6 egg planes (2 were mine) on display at SMW2014. It's all getting far too serious at that show! Merry Xmas and Best Wishes to all for 2015. That’s All Folks!
