Rafwaffe

Thanks. I’m looking forward to getting caught up and into when I get back from holidays.

I’m in. I have a hornet (de havilland not McDonnell Douglas) that’s perfect to go with this build. Would be an ideal follow on to my ww2 mosquito (once work, kids and the wife give me time to get to it in the ww2 twins GB)…

Priming success! Quick shot of the plastic before I get started:

High velocity into the bin. My attempt to salvage and strip the enamel primer resulted in the kit plastic melting and warping. I think I made the potion too potent!

Due to an unfortunate primer incident The aircraft will now be built using the Tamiya p-51D 1/72 kit as the base model. Luckily I have one in The stash. Just annoyed at myself for ruining a kit with primer applied on too hot or humid a summer morning… bugger.

Count me in! So many options…

Placeholder for my build which will be a 1/72 P-51D built as Mustang IVa CV- <> KH677 of 3 sqn RAAF in 1945.

Research reading and building. The best parts of the hobby! I’m sure yours will turn out great😊

Nice. I’ll be watching this build!

Count me in!

Count me in. I have a few heller kits in the stash that I could do.

Yes please. Sign me up! Many eligible kits in the Stash. Maybe Airfix will see this GB and give us the new tool 1/72 Manchester in 2025 we (ok I) want…

Great choice! Looking forward to your build and seeing your Ventura in an Aussie Squadron’s markings.

Following. Love a beaufighter and interested to see how the weathering comes out.

I’m convinced. Given my next GB isn’t until March (I can do this he says)Placeholder created. I’ll play it safe with a Baltimore (I have 2-3 lurking in the stash) just need to identify a suitable aircraft.
