  1. "New" old moulds. When was the last brand new mold from Italeri in 1/72? 2016 or what?
  2. Seems like developing tools for their Stirling and Sunderland tapped all the money out of their budgets 😄
  3. The gold era of Revell (early 00s) is over
  4. Seems like nowadays manufacturers stopped developing new tools except Airfix and some Asian firms which is very sad. Crisis and pandemic took its toll
  5. Very exciting but pricing of that kit would like over 50 euros I guess?! I stopped being excited about new releases some years ago because of the astronomic prices.... even Airfix which originally claimed to be a cheap manufacturer started charging super high price tags
  6. So which one to choose now? Tamiya or Airfix.. what about the price for both kits?
  7. Oh the Christmas was great! Besides, I am an Orthodox and benefit from having two Christmas days - Catholic and Orthodox 😁 yep, the week was hectic. Currently I am working on Hasegawa's Hawkeye and have a Hasegawa B-25 in my stash. Having compared it with the Airfix new tool Mitchel decided to have both. The former is more crisp, the latter is more detailed so let them both go under my knife lol😁 Have you solved the problem with the tail-sitting? I hate building nose-geared airplane because of the annoying problem of leveling things up. Seems to me the amount of load in your Mitchel isn't enough The painting is awesome! I love desert camouflaged airplanes
  8. Hi Rob! Any vacant seats for spectators? ) Some terrific kit from Airfix I am about to buy. Excellent build and astonishing performance, way to go, Rob! I'll tag along Rudolf
  9. What a lovely kit! Airfix offers a bit odd marking for the State research institute of air force (russian: Государственный научно исследовательский инсиитут ВВС) from the 70s when almost all Frescos had been pulled from the soviet Air force. Well, anyway, it is no problem to find markings for field military MIG-17s from the 50s.
  10. You got my praise Ced that you tackled this complex model. Got mine under my bed still waiting... for over 6 years. Keep putting it off for later each time
  11. Thank you for the answer. I doubt that we ever get a cheap one. The modern kits are well over 30 euros.
  12. So many Tomcat models in the 1/72 scale, got a bit confused with the choice kit!
  13. Zvezda has finally tackled the task of modelling NATO aircraft most popular outside of Russia. If that is going to be a new mould it is expected to be a good one. The most recent kits of Zvezda are very much attractive and worth buying
  14. It is still a pretty decent kit. Has been around for w while but I wouldn't say it is showing its age. Would grab one but the price isn't appealing though our hobby is getting more and more expensive
  15. Highly anticipated kit! Way to go, Airfix! Whats next?! I am your big fan
  16. One of my most fav aircraft. Old hasegawa kit and your excellent performance. Count me in! Lol Rudolf
  17. Danny, its brilliant! Time to make an Argentinian Skyhawk as Airfix offers Actually this new kit seems very pleasant to build and tops the old Fujimi kit
  18. Congratulations on the end of the project! Looks amazing I want to build such a kit! The washing is very realistic as well as the colors. Hope to see the undersides surfaces too in the final photo session
  19. Well done Danny! Looks amazing. The panel lines are excellent - a good improvement on the latest Airfix's kits! Is there going to be any weapons on the pylons?
