Wez Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 That's a cracking job Pat, very elegant looking aircraft the Cant. I was away at the weekend and had some connectivity issues, finally managed to update the list. Just one more needed to make it into the bunfight, it could be you, YES YOU SIR/MADAM! Come and join us. Any subject from any country that has a coastline from Spain to Greece, as well as Portugal, Malta, Albania or Cyprus is eligible. When else are you going to build that model of that Portuguese fishing smack, anything from the Spanish Civil War, a recreation of Toulon harbour after the ships had been scuttled, a Knights Templar, any Italian sports car, an Akrotiri based Wessex, a scale model of King Zog... ...you get the picture, any subject from any time from any country that has a coastline in southern Europe. The possibilities are endless! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that counts for the Middle East in my book. @Enzo Matrix another entry for the bunfight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JosephLalor Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I bought the Ejercito del'Aire boxing of the Special Hobby Hispano Buchon at the Irish Model Soldier Society show a couple of weekends ago. I'd like to join in with that one. I daresay I'll still have some Folgore or Veltro kits still lying about by then as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Does it have to be operated in Southern Europe or would manufactured there and operated elsewhere count? I'm thinking of a Swedish CASA 212. Would built in Spain and operated in Sweden qualify? I have plenty of other options if not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, my original intention was to feature the markings used in the region but if you're modelling for instance, a Ferrari or a Ducati, you wouldn't necessarily model it with Italian numberplates would you, so for that reason your Spanish CASA 212 in Swedish markings would be eligible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m again inspired by all things Mediterranean with my current F-84F build. I will be deviating to Finland, and the US, but will be back with some Spanish at some point ;).

You can probably guess why - Pete Sorry Peter but Bordeaux-Merignac is too far north, it's not on the southern coast of France, likewise Mont de Marsan. I thought I'd covered this before but looking back, I hadn't clarified the point about France. Basically, this is for those states that essentially border the Med and the Adriatic and are included in Europe, plus poor old Portugal because it often gets left out. For France to stop it just being another French Fancy GB, it really means those departments in the l'Occitanie and Provence-Alps-Cote D'Azur as well as Corsica which would be eligible. Using my trusty Le Guide Officiel Camping Caravaning these are: Hautes-Pyrénées Haute-Garrone Ariège Pyrénées-Orient Aude Hérault Gard Bouches-du-Rhône Var Alpes-Maritimes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
