  1. I think the same chaff and flare dispensers were applied to some AMI F-104 at the very end
  2. Any chance to downscale it to 1/72? I would love to do a 14 Stormo one
  3. The AMI one has even a "Malboro" scheme, but after buying the M345 that doesn't even has all the decals needed I will wait for reviews
  4. I will be happy if the F-84 has an AMI decal choice, 2 even better
  5. I will buy 1 as soon as it comes out. Maybe a second as Freccie Tricolori, even if the colour scheme is quite ugly Unfortunately it is in use in only 1 stormo, so not a lot of variation for AMI modellers. I congratulate Italeri for getting an AMI model out before it goes out of service, well done.
  6. I hope a TF-104GM in all grey would be great, with all the stencils for a AMI 2 seater. 4-23 would be my choice if possible
  7. Hello All I found Tony O'Toole page on Facebook, he is the author of the Xtradecal sheet and he has posted a lot of very interesting pictures. This one shows the camera installation very well https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1594819107565755&set=pcb.1483467022101596
  8. Hi Chris The one in your pictures seems a lot smaller than the SAAF one, I am not sure what is the etiquette of posting an image from a website that is not yours, this below is the link to one of the two pictures in the website I posted above. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/f0a18a_ac63c4b4f28f4b18900b5540affa5eb2~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_818,h_480,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_avif,quality_auto/f0a18a_ac63c4b4f28f4b18900b5540affa5eb2~mv2.jpg it seems @tonyot researched the sheet for Hannants but he is banned from Britmodeler now
  9. Hello All! I searched the forum but I didn't find a match As in the title of the thread I am planning to build a Beaufighter using the xtradecal X72104, the plane has a modification on the nose where there is an extendend camera, I found a website for SAAF 16 squadron https://biltongbru.wixsite.com/ww2-saaf-heritage/16-sqdn-strike-photographs The pictures show the modification to the nose but I would appreciate if anyone can give me an idea of the dimension on the tube in 1/72 Thank you Paolo
  10. I think that when people talk of Griffon Spitfires they mean Mark XIVs I would be very happy to have a kit of a Spit XIV with both types of fuselages
  11. Hello All It seems that at the moment I am reopening old threads I am interested in GB-G:DK296, 105 Sqn, September 25 1942, led raid on Gestapo Oslo headquarters On page 11 of Osprey Mosquito bombers/fighter bombers units 1942-45 there is a small picture of Flt Lt V Robson and Sqn Ldr Parry in front of a mosquito with bomb marks. The caption says it is GB-G DK296 and that the photo has been taken soon after the Oslo raid. Did GB-G carry bomb marks? and of what colour white? I have the Tally-oh decal sheet with GB-G but there aren't any bomb marks on the decal sheet, any suggestion where I can find some suitable if the aircraft sported them? Thank you Paolo
  12. Thank you very much, for the clarification and for the pictures Paolo
  13. Hi All I hope it isn't a problem reviving this thread I too I am interested in modelling NE775 as X2 with invasion stripes, but my question are more generic regarding Beaufighters and Torbeau in general 1) NE775 doesn't have wings machine guns because it is a costal command variant, Hasegawa wants me to install a faired part for the cannons in the nose, is this correct? No machine guns and no cannon, completely unarmed other than the torpedo? 2) Should I install the blank plates for the rockets under the wings? Thank you a very confused Paolo
  14. I have a Sword RF-84F so I have the decals, I also have a few Tauro sheets that I can use, still I don't understand why they didn't produce a box, there are a lot of liveries, and even 2 acrobatic teams that can be offered.
  15. No new F-84F boxes? I was hoping they will release one with AMI decals
