    Well Fisher did produce the T8M variant of their T7 conversion.. It builds into a really nice model But the chance for other to build one of these Hunters would be nice

    I have some thoughts, mostly centring round the £120+ I just paid for a Fisher T7 conversion a matter of a month or so ago... Argh, Anyway ... the Lossie markings are perfect for me since I can park it next to my 12Sq 1/32 Buccaneer I do hope this announcement mans that Fantasy Print Shop 2 Seat Hunter sheet will be re=released Finally , for those of us in the NE of Scotland , there's a Dutch Air Force Hunter T7 sitting in the garden of a company just a few miles from where I'm typing this , and yes I'll get some pics soon

    I first read Ulysses about 50 years ago on a trip to Skye and finished it in a day and at the end of it i felt that I'd read something very special. At that stage I really wasn't a serious modeller and since Airfix didn't have a Dido cruiser in 600th I gave up ever being able to build one .However I never really stopped reading it for the next 5 years or so to the extent that . I can still remember large chunks of the book. I'll be honest that I'm not a RN WW2 expert , but I di have adequate reference material to be able to be build a decent model and I hope that I can do a decent job on this model , On a person note I'd love to do the toothless wonder HMS Scylla since it was adopted my home town during the war - anyone for a few 4.7" Twin mounts as well

    Anyone got a copy of HMS Ulysses hanging around? I don't normally build ships but those pics of the test build are very tempting

    Piotr Mikolajski - I believe Adam Savage of Mythbusters put it best .. "I reject your reality and Substitute my own" I know you're right , but it's nice to dream

    VMA I would have added those aircraft as well but I couldn't type thanks to a cat lying on my hand - but I completely agree with all of your options!

    Nice figures indeed , but that Pilot looks as though he'd more at home in a Fulmar or Firefly or a late model Seafire .. well I can hope can't I?

    Looks pretty good and certainly a step up from the ancient Revell 1/32 A

    I think they did say that they were going to split pricing such that it's 1/2 on Pre order 1/2 when the kit is ready , 5-6 months? - unlike their previous kits when you paid in full upfront Payment details

    If there is going to be an Accurate Britphantom included as part of this range then I may have found what I'm going to be doing with my retirement!

    Those were the days - Sniff!
  16. colin ritchie
    Looks to be a huge improvement over the Vampire and Helldiver , count me in for sure
  17. colin ritchie
    So parked next to a Hunters and Lightnings - nice!
  18. colin ritchie
    At the risk of upsetting anyone - About Dammed time too !

    Missik , I'm denying that is accuracy is important then you are almost forced to spend a lot to replace the inactivate parts of the old Hasagawa 109s however I tend to treat these kits as relaxation between more demanding projects so I tend to build them pretty well out of the box and I accept that the final kits are "perfect" what ever that means I will build the ZM kit at some stage but building the best 109 in 32nd isn't my aim I just enjoy myself ,
  20. colin ritchie
    Loving that box art - my go to kit for 1/32 109 iis normally the Hasagawa series - but this does look so nice
  21. colin ritchie
    Mine is sitting under the Xmas tree and off limits until Sunday - Dammit!
  22. colin ritchie
    Wow what a beautiful kit this promises to be = I need one of these in m Life , Damm 2023 is going to bankrupt me at this rate !
  23. colin ritchie
    Woo Hoo - F.4 or F.8 I'm really not too choosy - I have a built F8 using the Fisher Conversion - and agreed it would be perfect choice - personally I'd Love a F9 - but what ever it's got to be cheaper and of better quality than the HK kit (I hope)
  24. colin ritchie
    I've got 10 (I think) completed 1/32 F-4s scattered around the house, and because of that I swore off big F-4s years ago , but you know I might just feel the urge to start up the production line again having studied those pics - ah well never mind F-4B have the best colour schemes!
