  1. The Foden C type would fit the GB. It was produced from 1922, afair
  2. I visited no.1 son's yard yesterday I think he's paying his foreman too much The foreman lives next to the yard and at it was a new orange Porsche Cayman
  3. I find painting dark plastic silver before white helps
  4. In theory they should fit but might need some fettling
  5. The Airfix Hawker Typhoon comes with 500lb and 250lb-ers You could try asking if anyone who has built the Typhoon but not used the 250lb-ers has them spare or ask Airfix if they would sell you the parts
  6. Yes, a wheellock, currently being built, but by 'Life-Like' and I found my flintlock dueling pistols but one is smashed up, only one can be refurbed
  7. I'm refurbishing the Kentucky Long Rifle which I made about 52 ( ! ) years ago. It will be hard to photograph it though
  8. Please add me in I have several suitable candidates
  9. Not a car. For my 4-wheel licence, a 3.5 ton Royal Mail Commer Walk-through van, nick-named the 'moon buggy'
  10. As far as I know only the cockpit area was American Interior Green. a fairly dark green called Bronze Green. All the rest of the fuselage interior was plain unpainted aluminium. The walkway was also unpainted aluminium
  11. I would go for matt black At the time it was believed any colour could show up at night and thus everything was painted matt black
  12. Modelling is suspended indefinitely I was in hospital from March 19th to April 4th and it was found that I have a problem with my eyes Everything is blurry and my depth perception is gone I have to have some ops on my peepers, starting next week with laser treatment I wouldn't normally share all this but I felt an explanation was due I was rather looking forward to building this

  17. Put this in the bin with U571 The Patriot Braveheart
  18. Although I'm not doing a Flying Tiger I've started watching John Wayne's 1942 film 'Flying Tigers' Real P-40Bs, not CGI. And real war film mixed in
  19. It was several rounds of filing and filling parts to get them to fit Airfix is going to re-issue this later in the year. If they don't improve to the moulds its waste of money. You're better off trying to make a P.1127 from the old Frog/Novo Harrier At least I got 4 of the 5 wheels touching the ground. One of the double main wheels just misses by 1/2 a mil
  20. I've done a lot of work on this trying to bring it up to decent kit Rear wheel well and doors, cut away the rear of the chin radiator for gills to be added. The particular one I'm building had a fin fillet I'll cannibalise u/c doors from the Tomahawk kit. It comes with open doors and closed and a cockpit interior made Almost ready for painting
  21. The chin radiator still needs a bit of tidying and the retractable radiator is made
  22. I bought these 3D printed 1/48 pilots. The seller also did 1/72, jet pilots, prop pilots, mixed et cetra
  23. The yellow P in a circle is the 'Prototype' marking Fantasy Print Shop has them in their range https://www.fantasyprintshop.co.uk/product/prototype-ps-aircraft-30-36-fp807-1-48/
