helios16v Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I gotta admit, that's shocking. Maybe if the recce Draken flies along (or I get hung up waiting on paint) I'll keep a grey duck on hot standby. Not going to commit to one at this point in the game though. Lots I want to build by the end of the year...and not a lot of free time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 I really could bring myself to build another Tarangus/Special Hobby Viggen again....... I'm still getting over the last one!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlin Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 6 hours ago, trickyrich said: well the end of the first week of the tour is nearly upon us and I have already noticed something strange...... Last time there was a brutal fight between Dragon's & Tufted Ducks (Draken's & Viggen's) with the Duck being victorious from memory. Roll on to this adventure and there's not a Duck to be seen, just masses of Draken's...... even a mythical one too! Come on people, we can't have an Nordic GB without some Viggen's, I hope to have mine here but it's still a few weeks away from being sent. Oh and speaking of grills (we were?), this is for @Marlin, just a nice simple BBQ meal last night, a home cooked burger and fries, Black Angus Beef patty, Onion fried in red wine, American southern style slaw with a nice Black Magic Woman! 🥰 I think I've got some Black Angus burgers in the freezer. /Bosse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as I thought originally made in Scotland but a cheap quick way for the locals to become completely plastered. Can't start my build until I finish some of the others already on the go. Good luck everyone Cheers Pat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattheCat Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Sorry Rich, still not busy with my intended build (a Swedish camouflaged J26). Seeing that Paramedic has nearly the same well under way and that there is no J29 Tunnan in yet, I'm now hesitating what to build. I've got this very nice Pilot Replicas 1/48 kit waiting in the stash The two at the same time is out of question, I'm too slow a builder. Now facing a dilemna. Decisions, decisions ....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paramedic Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I don´t mind if you do a camo´d J 26 as well by the way. But a J 29 is always nice too! ^^ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paramedic Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 But I´m not!! I´m glad you are doing the J 29 though, I want to see the kit being built. ..and I might do another J 26 in 1/48. I "need" a NMF one too.. But then i have decals for ray Wetmore´s "Daddy´s Girl". And a few others... Ah.. Gonan be some ponies.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Hello, I was hoping to join this GB with the Hasegawa Bf109G-2 in Finnish markings. The box art depicts MT-222 and the instructions contain suggestions for ME-213 and MT-225 as well. Would anyone in this lounge know (or be able to direct me) to information on what corrections would be required for either of those aircraft? The decal sheet is long gone, the box has been traveling with me for 9 years now, so I am not really limited to any of the 3 above but currently I am leaning to MT-213, Lt. E. Riihikallio May 1944.
