Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very nice work! Now you need the C-130 to provide the airborne deployment part........ :wacko:

Someone would need to make 1/35 C-130s first ... At a price that wouldn't send me broke (or, at least, into multi-generational debt) to buy enough (about 12-14, at a guess) for the battle group I hope to build.

Hangar, if they're going to be in that sort of numbers and size...  ;)

Isn't a hanger just a shed for airplanes?
At 1/35th scale you could put real motors and propellers on them!

I think I'll leave the 1/35 C-130s to those both wealthier & more ambitious than I. ;)

True, but it depends how pedantic the membership wants to be...  ;D

Let's see....
Airplane = hanger
Car = garage
Lawn mower = shed
How's that?  :wacko:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

OK, back at the bench (a bit) today. Did some small-part painting & fitting, but there's still more to do before decals & weathering. :thumbsup:

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .
