just looking for beaufighters that were used towards the end of the battle for a planned build...in particular the one the John Cunningham got his first kill in...i beleive it was still in a day fighter scheme. Paul

i'll do some cheking around for you

and the subject plane is a survivor......i hope we can get decals of it at some stage

if a beaufort in any scale is to happen...make it so an Aussie version isn't impossible. and a proper whirlwind in both 1/72 and 1/48th.....fighter that is

damn that is nice.

best news for awhile.....glad it's moving again

lovely work there in particular the KI27....stunning

it started with a wingsy kits 1/48 A5M4....a brilliant kit. 26734019_1536834663020575_5157504173254100346_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 28576888_1586750478028993_7274614950553413529_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 28577278_1586750331362341_119410742632135659_n by paul sabin, on Flickr then a pair of corsairs 1/72 29260916_731461280382580_5004255009157665370_n by paul sabin, on Flickr then a finish P40 m in 1/48 29340578_731971450331563_7890654499093244984_n by paul sabin, on Flickr a revell P51b in 1/72.....the real plane still flies with Jack roush. 31093442_746736902188351_7023318337918858083_n by paul sabin, on Flickr 31100481_746736812188360_2457842531013509838_n by paul sabin, on Flickr a pair of Fine mold Kawasaki produsts a KI61-11 kai and KI100 31948125_752988181563223_6702417295722938368_n (1) by paul sabin, on Flickr a tiger models egg P40...as Dick Creswells P40-e 34268581_764134213781953_6275324476498378752_o by paul sabin, on Flickr a special hobby 1/72 KI43-111 36188899_778989525629755_1123854042120847360_o by paul sabin, on Flickr airfix CAC mustang VH-IVI 36087978_778989455629762_2417457380896800768_o by paul sabin, on Flickr revell P51 b 1/72 NX-1204 41264731_844163655779008_6532175666966691840_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41126656_844163765778997_5803820613101420544_o by paul sabin, on Flickr then the weird stuff a pair of 3d printed Trex skulls ...i learnt a lot doing these 41985834_848214335373940_4273868050115067904_o by paul sabin, on Flickr another airfix 1/72 mustang this time CAC mustang VH-FCB....that would later become G-HEAC and destroyed as "big beautiful doll" in 2011...i was there and i wont forget. 41776848_848214418707265_5309344447106908160_o by paul sabin, on Flickr my final airfix 1/72 mustang(for now) 112 sqn ...love the camouflage .47578347_891007847761255_4762451636943585280_o by paul sabin, on Flickr probably one of my favorite models i have built...a hasegawa A6M5c 1/32 zero...it's the older kit but with the upgrade metal parts and my first serious attempt at weathering...and i'm very happy with the results 49630878_902394956622544_3889500788162035712_o by paul sabin, on Flickr my final finished project for the year...the 1/48 Italeri boxing of the Accurate miniatures SBD5 Dauntless. it's been a big year with a lot learned

you mean like the P40L in Italy that hasnt been restored?....btw the TFC one (without talking about the alleged the ID swap) is a long tailed F going by the serial given to it.

i really want an LA9.......but the LA11 is nice as well.

indeed even though i am in the middle of a parts chase for a counter invader i'd buy a new tool all plastic kit(if it's right) in a heart beat

thanks everyone

no they are both done with decals...the hasegawa ones are from the kit as are most of the 21st century ones except the tail numbers on it that are from the tamiya one

this is the old tool hasegawa A6M5c with the metal cowl and undercarriage .....it's an old kit but still builds up well...the markings are for a plane flown by Saburo Sakai in 1945. the kit is out of box other that a set of stunning Eduard wheels...and it's my first serious attempt at weathering....pretty happy with the results. 48189145_891007654427941_8537467885692387328_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 48237114_891007591094614_2427286469388271616_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 47680111_891007794427927_1391688894189142016_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 47681468_891007687761271_8704623490252144640_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 47580615_891007624427944_3525011382179201024_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 47578347_891007847761255_4762451636943585280_o by paul sabin, on Flickr and with an older 21st century early A6M5 that i built 48408314_891007887761251_2994181298731352064_o by paul sabin, on Flickr it's been an enjoyable learning experience...i'll be playing with weathering in the future

almost 5 months later.....till waiting for news...

there goes me being good.......it will look nice with my Shindens.....now will someone do the Italian Canard in this scale please

i dont think it has the finesse or levels of detail of the current ones it's a pretty good kit but these new ones are a big step above it.

a new mold 1/48 MKXVIII and MK22/24 plus seafire FR47 i'd be a happy man

well this has blown me away......i was hoping for some golden age kits from them after they moved on from WW1..........really wanted a modern Curtis P6e

thank you all...really enjoyed these builds

they are both Airfix Mustangs...VH_-FCB is built as a CAC MK22 mustang and the other is an RAF mustang iv..both are out of boxe with the exception on fcb having a redroo CAC seat and decals by a friend VH-FCB the castrol mustang..the white is gunze fine prime the read and black are Tamiya paints with the spinner painted with tamiya rattle can. the reall aircraft was destroyed at duxford as big beautiful doll in 2011 (something i'll not forget. 41985834_848214335373940_4273868050115067904_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41891553_848214295373944_1102458795679809536_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41869227_848214368707270_6071987762494439424_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41794940_848214398707267_5621008667336769536_o by paul sabin, on Flickr RAF 112sqn mustang iv "the shark" the schem and decals are out of box with a minor change as the paint i have done based on a warbird operated out of goodwood and it recreates the not often seen "firewall "schemethe NA painted mustang iv's came in...basically it means that everything forward of the firewall is a single colour on the upper surfaces. 41835214_848214538707253_2850747941008703488_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41911033_848214475373926_2178329355795562496_o by paul sabin, on Flickr 41952360_848214495373924_595427525451055104_o by paul sabin, on Flickr and my total production of mustangs for the last 12 months 41869786_848214608707246_2012532305226104832_o by paul sabin, on Flickr
