  1. Monthly (!) progress report, and not too glamorous one, I´m afraid... But still planning to finish these by Christmas! Anyway, here´s a few lousy pics to hurt your eyes.

    A pot of Xtracolor Azure Blue stirred and ready to dip a brush in! That´s my 30+ years old Mk. 1 Paint Stirrer, btw.

    75% done, at that point I wasn´t sure yet as how to paint the Italeri Mk. IX.

    Later, I decided to go all-desert with the quartet. Plain Hu225 looks kinda... well, those of us who have changed diapers may understand what I mean!

    "All Spitfires look the same" - not!

    Hu29 ready, and the canopies got attached too.

    Never mind the accuracy - I painted the reverse schemes on the Italeri kits and thought that two was enough for one night! Regards, V-P

    ...Group Build for all Hawker designed products?

     

    Is it stretching too much if you allow certain Hawker Siddeley- designed a/c like a Hawk Mk. 51 :whistle: to be eligible?

  3. Thanks Mark, I knew the Mavericks don´t need the pod. Well, browsing through 1700 BAF F-16 pics at the f-16.net is not the most unpleasant task I could think of :). About the RDAF decals, I remember someone pointing me towards a Danish model shop that produced them... just can´t locate the post or the producer :shrug:. Regards, V-P

    EDIT: Stoppel Decals by Stoppel Hobbies - located! A set for RDAF F-16:s 1992 is now on the way to me to do the F-16BM ET-614!

     

     

     

  4. I've asked this before, but can't find the post and the reply, so here we go again: I need 1:72 Danish MLU decals for a non-decorative (just the greys!) bird from OEF, Baltic Air Policing or whatever real missions. So who supplies them, please? Vingtor has already supplied me with RNoAF decals, and the BeNe planes I'll build with Revell kit supplied Daco and Syhart decals. Speaking of the Belgian AM, can I arm her with a pair of AGM-65:s but without LANTIRN? Thanks in advance, V-P

  5. This one´s definitely on my shopping list - but in 1:72 scale, where they have identical sets D72013 & D72014 available. Choosing MT-487 as one of the G-6 subjects offers some possibilities to all you who prefer your models looking very worn down and weathered, like the -487 appeared postwar in the late -40´s or very early -50´s:

    Now whose plane is this??? It seems to have the original RLM 74/75/76- scheme, with the once hastily overpainted German insignia quite visible again! Best regards, V-P
