alt-92 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Ordered on first sight (and probably could have been better off with the 1/32 version as I could have matched that with a kit but don't care!)

Procopius Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Airfix 1/72 Beaufort Three sets of 1/72 bulged Blenheim side windows from Alley Cat, who assure me they have some in stock and are not yet entirely defunct. I don't even have any Blenheim kits right now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly they don't even have any MkIVs right now! It's a national scandal. When he delivers beer to Parliament, see if he can get it brought up at Question Time. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomBigStu Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 A venerable Airfix spitfire vb will be on its way to me to act as parts doner for another project, begs the question what to do with it…perhaps backdate it to a mki, and as I’ve not done a prewar spit do that, hopefully the flat canopy from the new tool fits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lasermonkey Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 A few Revell enamels off eBay. I'm fed up with Humbrol paints skinning over, drying up or going lumpy, no matter how careful I am. I'm lucky if I get half a tin's worth out of it. We'll see how I get on with these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt-92 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 IIRC, Hobbyboss' attempt at a 1/48 Dora-9 is one of the better ones. The Northrop A17 might serve as basis for a conversion to DB 8A-3N. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-21 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Special Hobby 1/72 Gloster Meteor NF.14. I measured the fuselage length and it is correct 49 ft 11inches in 1/72 scale. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 A slightly damaged resin Retrokit 1/72 Magach 6 for £4 (+p&p) from a certain internet auction site. Was a bit surprised to find it's based on the Esci M60 kit and uses the same incorrect (double width wheels) running gear with the Esci Merkava tracks moulded on (no inside detail). No matter - I have a spare set of OKB wheels and a ton of Revell M60 spares, including some tracks, so let the kit bashing commence!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Another odd week with on one hand items from reputable suppliers due for delivery mid-week not even being shipped yet and on the other a book not expected to be released until next week being delivered already even although the publisher and other suppliers such as the mighty river of consumerism still show it as unavailable till then. Also got a nice unexpected surprise big bag of bits.

psdavidson Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 A branch of The Works opened recently nearby, so I popped in, hoping to get some flow improver. They didn't have any but while I was there I had a look around (as you do) I saw this They wouldn't let me out of the shop until I bought one, honest. 3 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
