    I will check the mail 8-) Maybe I will find a new tool Comet for 2015

    From my point of view a new model would be a money maker, the plane shape is not to complex, and can be modelled in not a lot of pieces, plus all the colour variations. I know if they create a new mould I will have difficulty to choose only one colour scheme.

    This may provide some inspiration, in several post there is the whole construction from box to model. He is a very good modeler, but it seems there isn't anything too complicated http://falkeeinsmodel.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/airfix-de-havilland-dh-88-comet.html Cheers Paolo

    According to the catalogue the moulds should be reworked, we don't know to what extent.

    Linus was so kind to send me a picture of the Tornado in question with the Agip art on its buddy buddy refueling pod and asked me to post it on this thread, Thank you very much for your kindness and your work in finding this picture Cheers Paolo

    Hi Linus As I said I would like to see a pic of it, just to know it is real and how it looked in real life. Thanks for your suggestion of using car rally decals, but I will consider doing it only if I find a pic Cheers Paolo

    Hi Jabba That is why I am asking, I never saw one myself. I did check dstorm.eu a couple of pics have buddy-buddy pods but they are plain. Cheers Paolo

    Hi all Probably most of you know about Ugo Crisponi work, he does some very nice profiles, I browse his site and his flickr acount from time to time to get the inspiration for some modeling. During my latest perusing of his very nice work, I spotted an Italian Tornado from Operation Locusta (Italian contribution to the Gulf War) with a marking on its buddy buddy pod. http://www.aviationgraphic.com/fighters/1349-tornado-ids-36-46-156gruppo-am-jp-1459.html The marking is of the biggest Italian petrol company AGIP, in a similar way of Victors with BP mission markings, I did look for pictures online but I didn't find any. I wonder if any of you came across pictures of Buddy buddy pods marked with the AGIP six legged dog, I would love to see them. Cheers Paolo

    Hi Sean That is quite a heavy load for an Italian S, much more typical would be tip tanks and one sparrow and one sidewinder on under wing pylons. You are right only the central pylon was used, for recce pods or bombs, the two other belly pylons were never used. Hope this helps Paolo

    Hi All I would like to ask a question about your Spitfire Mk.IX kits, I read more than a mention on the availability of different cannon bulges, do the kit provides large 2 cannons bulges? Thanks Paolo
  14. Paolo6691
    They didn't even release an Italian one in all this time and the only thing missing is a second BOZ dispenser!
  15. Paolo6691
    Interesting news, I will be very curious to see how they will carry their markings. Black bars and triangles on the fusolage, and wake not in the shield? Raf roundel background in the shield? Anybody quick with photoshop can bring out a what if? Cheers Paolo

    Thank you all

    The two kits I finished this year, I hope you like Cheers Paolo

    Hi Charley It was more or less my idea too, I filled the two nose sections with PVA and then poured the lead shots, and slowly mixed with a toothpick.to let them sink into the PVA. I thinking I need more practice

    You forgot Hasegawa 8-) From my point of view it is not a surprise, the only new plane coming into service in the foreseeable future and used by nations all around the world. I think in a few years time almost all the main producers will have one in their catalogue. Cheers Paolo

    Thanks a lot I will have a look around, it may be very useful. I have a kilo of small spherical lead balls that went almost everywhere when I used them the first time, time to learn some new skills!

    I hope for a 614 county of Glamorgan option!
  23. Paolo6691
    Even more unrealistic (sorry for the thread drift from US Navy to AMI)
  24. Paolo6691
    Don't tell me
  25. Paolo6691
    I want to do this sooner or later
