From Martyn @ MillKits 3D Printing Ltd who produces the stuff on the Lost British Projects Facebook page [https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=lost%20british%20projects a 1/72 TSR2 missile set comprising a pair of Bluewater missiles and small er version of the Blue Steel, The Bluewater comes in 4 parts, whilst the Blue Steel is two parts, the main missile body and fins with a small part fin to allow it to be in the folded position

Just been donated a Mach Poo Junkers Ju 352, collection on Friday.

 I'll swerve the whole engine issue and go for the Ju 352B with BMW 801s when I build it.

Two boxes of Hataka Blue line paint, destined for the He-119 job, and an Italeri Harrier GR3 as a parts donator for the Scott-Furlong Predator.

An amazing decal sheet with that Harrier kit, it has details for EVER one of the No. 1 Sqdn GR3s that sailed south on the Atlantic Conveyor. 

I stumbled on this @Evilbay:

You cannot view this attachment.

I've never seen the kit before, and being in the middle of a Scandinavian spree, I just had to have it. So I did. 

The shape of the vertical tail gives it a De Havilland vibe.  Stick a radial on it and you'd have a mini Beaver.

You're right!  A bit more sweep on the top of the rudder plus a Gypsy Major and it would be exceedingly dH.  A Lark Moth.

So does it have the proper parts and markings to go with the JA/AJ versions? If not we have the experts to help correct it. Unless your just going to whiff it anyway!

Oh I'm pretty sure Ken me ol mate that wiffery will show it's face 
But it does say JA/AJ on the box mate so it's possible it is .
But I would say wiffery is pretty much a certainty..just had an idea but I'm gonna look at a couple of things once I get this in my hands

I've got to get back to finish things mode and apply the decals to the F-104/Viggen combo and the kitbashed Firespotter. The junkyard dog only has a few parts to attach yet and then it's the Biraider to finish also.

Painting can be a real chore, especially when the organic chemistry won't cooperate. I've returned to using enamels with good results. If I try acrylics again we'll see what happens.
