I agree about the Tempest so have put it on my wish list for when I have some money to spend.

All other things being equal, and unless Igor has truly "upped his game" of late, I'd be to going with this one for the B-20:

And I'd really have to see the resin of the Super Tempest before clicking "buy" on that as well.

That "Super Tempest" is easy enough to scratchbodge - Tempest wing with l/e intakes from the Tempest 1, Sea Fury fuselage and tailplanes with a plug before the tail surfaces (a la Fw 190D) and a RR Eagle engine cowling.

And £33 for Igor's usual "crunchie bar" castings?  Had away and (rest of rant deleted on legal advice).

You are referring to the P-75 Eagle? If so, I'm in.  It's a nice looking A/C.

If I had drawings that's the way I would go Lee. Quite getting into this scratch building lark!

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Thanks Mossie. Nice drawings, pity they got the rear set of propeller blades the wrong way round  :banghead:

Wow....do it Chris ! Either, or both ! lol

My lovely neighbours collected some dosh when I got hurt. You see, I should prob repay the wife and family for their kindness, or perhaps pay bills due to my decreased pay, but you know I`d rather splurge on some unobtainable kit !

- 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.

Don't get too upset about the B.20, they've sold out already.

Why am I not surprised?  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Gorgeous. I was looking at some late Spits and fangs from West Coast Hobbies. A whole collection of 'third generation' WWII types would look great atop the shelf.
