Well, I like the intro but after the Woohoo! bit, I lost interest. Thankfully the voices in my head are singing Gospel this evening. Stirring stuff!

But it will take you a while to get here, so I may as well have one of these. I have a fresh bottle in the cupboard for when you get here.

Thanks for the info on the stands Anil - I get it now; top plate angled so you can rotate the model to different poses. Clever :)

Can't wait to see the Academy 109 build, I am on my second Academy Hellcat kit and thoroughly enjoying it.

My local hobby shop only carries the Academy Hellcat and P-47. I never saw any others.

The do a whole raft of sweet 1/72s, mostly clones of Hasegawa's but their P-51/B/C are great kits but possibly not terribly accurate? Their 190A is another sweet kit but apparently not very accurate. Built their P40E ages ago and again nice little kit with delicate engravings and great fit.

 

The 109Gs have only one annoying thing, thats the separate tails but that shouldn't be much of an issue.
