  1. This sounds like fun. Please count me in. Not sure what to do yet, but like others here, I'm not short of choices
  2. That looks very nice. The seam line along the forward nose looks like it might need some work? Going for the early Yugoslavian option? I fancy that one myself, but it would be a shame not to use the lovely tail art decal.
  3. I haven't joined in a Group Build for some time, but this seems like the perfect kind of theme to get me back into the swing of it all. I'm sure I can rustle up something suitable. 🥐 🧄 Great idea, Martin. Please count me in.
  4. That's interesting. I've seen the overwing medical pods. These are a new one on me. Anyhow, that's a very nice model, great work. Is the ICM kit very much different from the old KP one? Cheers.
  5. No worries. I know how that is. I've got a few on the go myself. Good luck with all your projects.
  6. Hi @CarLos. I was very interested to see how you got on with this project. I have a couple of these KP 180/185's and I'm wondering how to go about building them. Did you get any further with this?
  7. Nice project. I've just picked up a couple of old Microscale decal sheets for Thuds (1/72). I'm big fan of the Vietnam era Thunderchief's. Did your dad's aircraft have a name or artwork?
  8. I've just read through your entire build from the first post. I must say that I am very impressed with your work. Your Mirage III is also wonderful. I just hope I can get close to achieving similar results myself. I also have the Pavla kit of the Pioneer, which I think I will stick with! This ClearProp kit looks great, but obviously not without some challenges. You have really done it justice.
  9. Sadly, I think you are probably right. Such a shame. For me personally this is/was their most exciting and interesting 'future project'. I have their Mohawk and Seasprite. Looking at their website I'd also be keen on the future Frogfoot, and DH. Comet. But the Tracer is the one I was really looking forward to.
  10. The Tracer is now showing (on Scalemates) as a future release for 2024. I don't know if there is any substance to this as an indication of a possible release, or just wishful thinking.........
  11. @Steve McArthur bit harsh mate, just having a bit of banter about the F-35 generally. The point was that a lot of people like to chip in and be a bit negative about it. I did post a few comments about actual F-35 kits, any thoughts? Please don't keep going on about Tamiya F-16's and 'fat wing F-4's' Bit off topic 🙄 Banter: British for a light hearted chat (talk) Cheers.
  12. Deleted the photo. I should know by now not to get involved in these sort of discussions. Hope I haven't upset too many people.
  13. Err...............actually I've found a few more images, and those panel line tapes (what are they again ) are really quite prominently molded on. Which is a shame, and why I prefer the Hasegawa kit's use of decals to portray these. I just think they look more like the real thing, and more to 'scale'. Just my thoughts on that
