  1. Did not expect you to go with this subject Dennis but it's a good one and you're off to a great start
  2. That's impressive work over such a basic starting point. Nicely done and completely believable. As for the tail markings: G caught my attention first with J coming second after considering all the options. I'd personally leave the inner faces without the individual letter and badge to avoid everything looking too complicated and fussy.
  3. They certainly offer the potential to create an interesting model. Given enough time and razor saw wielding. Tempted?
  4. In you come There's certainly plenty of schemes to choose from the continuing history of F-16 operations and the USAFE is a classic.
  5. The Academy kit seems to have attracted the main share of aftermarket goodies.
  6. You are counted and bring us up to 28
  7. The perfect reason indeed Steve and a nice subject choice.
  8. A bit of reworking will be needed to get the smaller gun of the first two but will make for an interesting model if you fancy doing them.
  9. There's an interesting array of schemes on that sheet Craig. Good luck narrowing it down to one. Or, alternatively, you can buy a few more A-10 kits and avoid the agony of choice. That way you're sure to get your monies worth from the sheet
  10. Even with its Matchbox-esqu two-colour plastic this looks to be a nicely detailed kit.
  11. Interesting subject choice John and as usual Amodel will make you work for it. Nice to see they provide the toilet in step 4
  12. I've a pair of kits in the stash with plans to do one open and the other closed so if Airfix can't help I'll have a spare for you.
  13. Fuselage together, wings and tailfin on, first round of filler applied Looking more like a Beaufighter than a box of bits.
  14. Is it the open or closed canopy option you need Craig?
  15. Nice subject choice. Always felt it interesting this machine existed in the same era the DC3 did.
  16. It's good to see an example of a crucial but all too often overlooked part of military life.
  17. That's otherwise known as 'giving them a loving home'
  18. Nice progress and it's good to see the flashes of colour on this one now Miss-timed my own ride after stopping to speak with a friend and got home a few minutes after the finish The result wasn't what I expected so hopefully catch the highlights later.
  19. These 1/32nd scale Hasegawa interwar kits have always interested me but I've never yet found one at a decent price so will enjoy this one vicariously while watching your progress
  20. Will it be less work to strip the paint off and go again from bare plastic?
  21. That's a lot of work to simply correct the kit parts before really getting started on the construction but the subject deserves it
  22. Thanks again Pete. I'll bookmark your link and be returning to it frequently. The Beau was certainly a tough machine! Thank you James. It's taken some time to get this far but been an enjoyable process. Part of the fun in our hobby for me is learning more about the subject and how it worked.
