Plan is to build OOB but a little added detail in the cockpit

 

Good luck with your builds!

All the best,

Dermot

Here's another type I didn't foresee in the GB, nice choice Dermot, good luck with the paint scheme once you reach that stage

I've built this kit recently in the Kit I Built As A Kid GB.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Hope you do too!

Looking forward to seeing you work your magic on this Dermot!

Hi Dermo,

 

Well that is certainly the old Frog kit which I built man years ago. More recently I bought the Revell one which I had assumed would be the same, but it seems Revell had moulded their own version, and if I am reading Scalemates correctly they went through a phase of switching between their own and the Frog one so you never knew which was in the box - mine turned out to be Revell!.

 

Should be a good build.

Hi all,

Very sorry to say this one will not make the finish line - a lack of spares, fuel shortages and....

 

Just kidding...my hobby-room-DIY-makeover has stalled because of Covid and also suffering a bad lack of mojo. So nowhere to build and no energy to build.

 

Don't worry, will be back again soon.

 

Take care, good luck with your builds and happy modelling.

Dermot

Sorry to hear this Dermot. Hopefully you can get a set-up sorted out soon and restore some mojo.
