Seen On The Airfix Tribute Forum

Yeah, it doesn't look out of place on the Valiant at all.

Oh that is gorgeous....prerfect almost ! One of my new-found favourite a/c.

So the Airfix tribute forum. Do they kick you out if you build another make?

Fred showed promise as a member until it was discovered he had built an Academy P39 and owned a number of unbuilt Tamiya Migs. His widow has been advised to destroy them...

No, there's separate sections for Non-Airfix model builds & photos. The only thing they insist on really, is in the GB's, it's all Airfix although you can use aftermarket bit's & bobs. In their yearly 'What-If' GB, the model has to be at least 50% Airfix.

OK. Furry Muff. I wouldn't want to have to judge that 50% though. By weight, volume or No. Parts? I can imagine some intense argument.
I much prefer my rules to be along the lines of "there are no rules, have fun" but to each her/his own.

Thanks Kitnut.

Parts I would imagine

. . . I can't seem to get the link to work . . .

Am I missing something?

It was an old thread bobbo, and the forum has been moved to a new service provider. IIRC, all the old articles were archived but I think you can access them when you go onto the new 'The Airfix Tribute Forum'

Thanks, kitnut617. Not enough caffeine this morning, I guess . . .
