I Definetly go with your Mohawk, 777 (sorry, B777LR is toomuch complicated for me, you know) so you keep calling me Rafa.
But also like that L-29 (here is a very rare subject), The Lysander, Sea Hawk (I had one who collided with a Chinook, The results: The ChiHawk), And those little jeeps are adorable, i imagine them descending from that LCVP, but the eye catcher is my favorite prop driven WW2 aircraft: The XP-55, i'm chasing one here, never seen.

Very pretty models all of them, but beyond beauty, i can only imagine how much fun you've had assembing, painting and decaling them.

Hermoso trabajo, 777.

Just a question, B777LR: as you are so young now, how old were you when you built the first of this great collection?

i think i was 7 years old when i built a Avro RJ85 in crossair markings! I was on holidays in denmark, and we had flown swissair MD-11 and RJ-85 on the way, so when i spotted it in the toy shop, i just had to get it!

Its the very cheap KP 1/72 kit. Its very bad quality. Canopy was higher than the fuselage by about 4 mm! So i sanded down the canopy, and applied putty.

Got to say I'm impressed - especially with the XP-55 and the DVII

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

Some really nice work there, I'm impressed, I have some of those kits and I know the quality of them or lack of . Great job on the K.P. stuff.

Tell me more about the Sopwith Pub? Did the engine run on Lager or Bitter?

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid

Petrol im afraid :P


Now for next model. Im still bouilding this, an italian 3 engined bomber, whose name i cant remember. its the 1/72 italeri kit, and ive been like a JMN on this one :P  (i am going to remove the paint from the wings and do a more boring scheme):




Brian da Basher

I think that's a Sovia-Marchetti SM-79 Sparievo, Trip 7. Wow that paintwork on the wings is magnificent! I kinda hate to see it go.

I agree with Brian, let this lovely paint sheme on the wings... and extend it to the whole aircraft !  ^_^  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.
