Oh, I'm definitely lurking. Not a lot is posted here on 1/72, but it's good to see what others are doing.
Don't worry, I'm trying to keep the 1/72 blood going on IM.

Looks like WNW has updated their news section. No new bombshells, but it promises the Fokker DVII for 2012...

Mmmm, teasing is the word. Still its at the top of my wanted list - prefarably in several versions, or at least one early Fokker built, and one late OAW. Birthday is soon looming for me as well - fingers crossed we get some good news in May...

More like 1:48 & 1:72. Their larger sheet is more for 1:32 but mine arrived damaged so they are going to replace them. They don't give you an id list like Airscale does either.

Did anyone else notice the new WNW release? Seems they've produced some 1:1 scale manufacturers logos as waterslides – I'm thinking they'd look great on a display plinth or perhaps in the back of your car window?
A pretty unexpected release, they look very well produced!
logos Scrol down a bit on the page.

Those valves, lifters, and plugs got my creative juices flowing.
Hi good folk, I am still hanging around. I actually got a kit out last week. I should be back soon.

Both the RR armourd car and the Naval Aces book are excellent.
the RR book is a great reference if you want to mod-up that Roden Model.
