  1. Hi, look for the Hasegawa K28 to make a colourful saudi Tornado GR.1 by Jan H, auf Flickr by Jan H, auf Flickr or for a Barley grey saudi Tornado F3, go for the Hasegawa K31 by Jan H, auf Flickr by Jan H, auf Flickr together with the Carpena decals by Jan H, auf Flickr at least I would...
  2. I did some archaeology and found these in my stash Frog & Novo - The first I came in contact with in late 70's and early 80's. Novo with selfdisintegrating decals if you mentioned the word water. A Swordfish from Donetsk toys factory sneaked in there too by Jan H, auf Flickr Eastern Express - Later issues with usable decals. Three blobs of Sea Venom canopies, deformed, air blisters etc.. I've never seen a really good one. The IOM-kit, there has the whole moulding a fish-scale structure. The Blenheim must be an Intech rebox but have instruction from The turntable model shop in Luddendenfoot, Halifax. Bought it just for the all black nightfighter scheme but no decals in the bag... bah by Jan H, auf Flickr Hasegawa - Not mentioned at Cocardes but the silver coloured Frog issue has a separate nose cone and less camera openings than the later Hasegawa grey coloured issue by Jan H, auf Flickr Revell - First a lot of flying rivets, F417 Arado Ar234 and a F418 Heinkel He 115 that never was released by Frog. Somewhere in my stash I have the BAC Lightning Hasegawa mould too by Jan H, auf Flickr Academy - Frog origin but with recessed panel lines. Too far from the Frog theme but you can always crosskit the parts between them. They fit well together. by Jan H, auf Flickr
  3. Well then, I'm in And everyone need a Dauntless in their stash, like me by Jan H, auf Flickr
  4. I think you need a Pilatus PC-6 Turbo-Porter http://www.roden.eu/HTML/440.htm The PC-6 tested by the swedish army was later sold to Air America http://www.pc-6.com/history/570.htm http://pilatus-history-and-news.blogspot.com/2011/07/pilatuspc-6suedearmen.html
  5. I have these decals in my stash https://www.scalemates.com/kits/had-72100-aero-l-39--149350 If it has got teeth it's automatically a shark or... ...I might be wrong here and better search for something with a more "fishy" look
  6. btw, I'm in... again... ...with one of the last combat actions with a Messerschmitt 109. I'll put in a spanish Tenerife based Hispano HA-1112-M1L from the Ifni war.
  7. Count me in! I wanted the 30th place in the list but I can't wait any longer. Iceland is the hard one. The only one I have in my stash is the Hughes MD500 from the Icelandic Coast guard https://www.scalemates.com/kits/profiline-7013-md-500d--128658 I tried to find an aircraft that was in service in all the main air forces. I found these but there must be some more Tiger Moth, all four Fokker C.V, all four C-47, all four
  8. Heller, yeah! One of my favourite manufacturers, so count me in! I might have one or two in the stash. I did a small inventory and found these, black boxes with the right classic logo 🤗 by Jan H, auf Flickr ...upps, I found a stray one, a non-starter from the Airacobra GB by Jan H, auf Flickr And if thats not enough, more newer boxes and reboxes from Encore, Revell and Smer....
  9. Back to the harsh reality again A lot of sanding done and the fins, stabilizers, rudders whatever it's called on an airship are in place by Jan H, auf Flickr Size comparision, a P-47 cockpit in 1/72 and the tiny props and engines that I've got to take care of soon... by Jan H, auf Flickr
  10. I didn't find any summer photos, but just guess where I live 🤭 by Jan H, auf Flickr by Jan H, auf Flickr It's beautiful in the summer, a lot of small islands around the city and the coastline east of Karlskrona. I live about 20km east. A lot of restaurants in the city for all tastes. If you are into military history, you have the KA2 Coast artillery museum and Marinmuseum Btw, did you try Glassiären? Big ice creams (three tastes of ice cream = 9 balls) and a lot of gigantic seagulls just waiting to grab them 😉 PS. If you visit the city again, just let me know
  11. Nice one! ...and what a collection of Minecraft creatures, me like 🙂
  12. Some parts put together, just some sinkmarks on the engine gondolas and no warping on the fuselage. The tiny little propellers have a bit flash that needs tidying up by Jan H, auf Flickr by Jan H, auf Flickr Btw, the fuselage is one slippery 👹 to hold and been on the floor several time already. Only good thing there is that the carpet monster choked badly when it tried to swallow it 🧟‍♂️
  13. Thanks Pat! I built the 1/720 DKM Graf Zeppelin a couple of years ago, no biplanes, just 109s and Ju87s but I have that on display on a local air base so I can't show you the size comparision there. Here you have some pictures from the build. (one square=1cm) by Jan H, auf Flickr by Jan H, auf Flickr
  14. Here's my entry, the LZ Graf Zeppelin from Mark I Models by Jan H, auf Flickr A big blob, approx 33 centimetres in length in 1:720 scale but few parts and no canopy to mask, just a decal by Jan H, auf Flickr And here we go.... by Jan H, auf Flickr
  15. My first build will be a EC-121K, early designation WV-2 by Jan H, auf Flickr WV-13 kit decals for a plane that used the Keflavik and Prestwick bases in the late 50's and early 60's by Jan H, auf Flickr Hunchback device and guppy bottom.... by Jan H, auf Flickr
  16. The best source for a danish F-100 is Stoppel in Denmark. I have the decals for the early scheme, 1960-1969 Here you have it green, 1969-1982 Good luck with the weathering, a mix of salt water, worn out and burnt colours.
  17. Sounds like you and I have the same problem. I've tried all sorts of techniques, like roll a dice but with all my choices the dice never stop rolling... In my case, "Start them all!" but my shelf of doom is already full. I think I'll go for the "Willie Victor" and a "Flying Vacuum" as a start. I bought the F-102A Xtradecal sheet when it came out but I think they've mixed up the markings for 57th FIS. 🤔 Dated 1963 and the fin with serial without "0-" is correct but ... large 70's checkers ... no early 60's buzz codes I better wait with that one and modify it for a 70's theme.
  18. I have both the Meng F-102A and Revell F-89J, but as they're already been taken 😉 Is it OK with a Keflavik based Willie Victor that's just laying here begging to be built... ? Minicraft 1/144 EC-121, all in dark grey
  19. I'm in... ...with one of the last combat actions with a Messerschmitt 109. I'll put in a spanish Tenerife based Hispano HA-1112-M1L from the Ifni war.
  20. Hi, I'm on hold at the moment, just waiting to get this "egg" to hatch...(26th March hopefully)... by Jan H, auf Flickr
  21. What I can think of, Cuban missile crisis Operation_Trikora - the indonesian planning of sinking the dutch aircraft carrier Karel Doorman with soviet-supplied Tu-16s' armed with KS-1 missiles and many many " US performs nuclear test at Nevada Test Site" https://www.onthisday.com/events/date/1962
  22. Put me in the list, please. Propably I'll build the Classic Plane/Revell/Hasegawa He 111 H-6 D-APZE from Kontrollinspektion Afrika And as a motivator not to fail with the first one, the Roden He 111 E easykit
  23. 1969 and I'm in. I have a lot in my stash and surely find anything buildable. Too bad I wasn't born in 1966. Then I just could... Paint it, black
  24. +1 for me I have a lot of planes for all the three, the volunteer, bright and dark side.
  25. Cockpit done... by Jan H, auf Flickr ...and it fit perfectly, except the joysticks. They broke off again and are now in my spare parts box. by Jan H, auf Flickr Lot of protection to try to blend in that cockpit cover. Even if it's a short-run kit feel there are to many parts for the fuselage halves. On to the sanding again... by Jan H, auf Flickr SAU
