Post man brought a few items over the last week.

Wow! Alot of Russian/Soviet jets and Ju-88s lately.

Nothing earth shattering here on my porch but Ive reconnected with this old familiar friend for the possible vac campaign that might be forming. The indomitable Arii/Otaki 1/48 Bf 109G in its amt Ertl boxing! Nostalgically wrapped in paper and shoe horned into my mail box!

This was one of my childhood favorites, and one of a very few I built twice or more. I still have one or most of one in a box somewhere up in the attic. Hopefully soon I'll be bashing this kits wings together with a falcon vacuform conversion, into either a tall tail G-14 or possibly a G-12 trainer. I may then try something fun like turn the remaining parts into a derelict fuselage with graffi or maybe have some GIs sitting on it

This weeks plastic..

The Fw 58 "Weihe" looks nice!

Our expo last weekend brought 2 more kits to my stash. After I have enjoyed building Zvezda's Pe-2 I thought I should go for another of their kits and got the Su-2.
I have only the Gripen as a single seater, so I was happy to find the twin seater at our flea market sale ....

Latest two additions.





Better sharpen my re-scribing tool...

I was visited by the modelling gods for my birthday over the weekend just gone and received these:

Decided to pick up a little plastic for my birthday. These arrived today:


Hopefully the pilots I ordered will arrive soon.

Hi all

My Henschel Hs 123 arrived today direct from GasPatch:



It was amazingly efficient delivery! I only ordered it last Friday, GasPatch dispatched it within three hours, and it arrived in the UK on Monday morning!

All the best

Hi again

Great Wall Hobby look to have a real treat in store for F-15 fans with their first venture into 1:72:



A special thank you to Guido Hopp for sending the sample. Watch out for the review very soon.

All the best

Rowan

My 1/144 OzMods pilots arrived the other day from BNA Model World



Man, these guys are tiny, but I think they'll add that final touch to the aircraft I posted above. Well, that's the plan, anyway.

Jim

I had an attack of whimsy and ordered these from HLJ. Gosh they're tiny.


regards.

Spud, those Sweet kits look interesting. Heard a lot of good things about that manufacturer.

Over the lest couple of months I've done a bit of overtime and put most of it aside to finally get myself an Xbox One. But I decided to treat myself to something else instead.



This one has been high on wish list for ages and does not disappoint. A lot of options that I will have to thoroughly study the instructions to work out.

I guess Battlefield One and Mass Effect Andromeda can wait a few more months.

last week

Nice!
Would be interested to see what's inside the box.

Here's a inbox review

You know me, the more obscure the better. Now two for one:
1/144

and 1/72

Nice one Jessica !!
Dutch fleet I presume..

Got these this week,

Got these this week.
I saw the Mania Type-99 going cheap on evilbay and a I don't have any Japanese bombers, I thought what the hell. Pleasently surprised by it given the vintage. I think Hasegawa stil rebox this kit today.
Also have the Kovozavody Prostejov LVG C.VI. This looks to be a fantastic kit and I can't wait to make a start. Molded on the one sprue and has decals for two options, the prototype and 'Black 7' from an unknown unit.

Very nice Stephen !
The LVC looks good.

Thanks. It's a very nice looking little kit. I've been tempted to make a start and build log but had a few problems with my camera. Didn't want to without taking good photos.
I'm hoping that it will be a success for KP and encourage them to issue more WW1 subjects, especially 2-seaters. Would be great to see an RE-8 and Albatros C types.

Got this this week.

I took a punt on the luftwaffe in colour, but flicking through, it looks like it'll be a great reference. I like the shot of the ground crew hand painting on the spinner spiral. Would've thought he'd use a decal!

Hi mates,
as I got a long awaited new kit last week, I take the opportunity to let you know

All bombs and missiles molded as single parts!




Looking forward to build this gem for the "Hot out of the Molds 2017" campaign!

Have fun, mates

looks good, if I ever get into Jets, a Kfir is high on the list.
