Hi Michal

Don't worry, I'll review everything. The samples of EagleCals #124 and #127 are in 1:72 which isn't "my scale", so afterwards they'll be in the Contributors' Forum for anyone who'd like to feature them in a build.

All the best

Great! Can I already reserve the Me-262 sheet for the "in-practical-use-review" I have one model in this scale from the old days which still needs painting but I have no decals yet for this model.

Great haul Andy!

And Happy Birthday in advance, Mrs Torchy!

The last of my own birthday goodies just arrived - a day later than expected, but I think I can live with that...



All the best

Best wishes to Mrs Torchy for Monday, but I have a cunning plan. It's MY birthday on Tuesday, so if Mrs Torchy shows the least signs of dissatisfaction, that good home should definitely be close by MY workbench

P.S. Nice haul Andy, am very jealous.

Hi all

I got some goodies for my 1/48 Su-7BMK on Saturday, just see that thread for further info. Today I gut this little beauty. It is a bit crude in the finer details, but overall looks pretty nice:



all the best

Nice haul Nick

And happy memories for me - I built the Caproni CA.3II when it came out in the '70s. It was a nice kit.

All the best

back to your regularly scheduled program.....................

Hi Paul

I shot an interview with Tom many moons ago. A really interesting chap with a drole sense of humour. Oops, that might not make you feel any better either!

All the best

Hi all,

Not really modelling but anyway, I got this nice present from Rowan yesterday...



I suppose it's for my new born son Jonas and not for me!



I can't call my first son "little Vincent" anymore. He is the big brother now...
