To console myself at RIAT being cancelled I got myself a very nice Tamiya 1/35 Type 90 Tank  :tank: :tank: :tank:

38 years!

Wouldn't it have been cheaper to buy just the Aeroclub props NARSES?  Comparing the Paragon Sea Mosquito props with the Airfix kit' ones, they're the same.

Yup but I will build the Mossie as well. Should have made that clear. It's just when I read Lee's mention of the 4 bladded prop I thought "kill 2 birds with one stone". She will probably be a real French Indo-China bird

Old KM MiG-19 (1/72) off Ebay.

Not inspiring at first sight: heavy, rough cardboard box and crude box art. However, the kit turns out to be quite nice: very little flash, and far better made than my A-Model MiG-9. There's even a cockpit decal (no actual floor though... ;D). Can't vouch for the accuracy on a quick look, but the only things that leapt out at me were oversize wing-root gun fairings and a pair of "creative" rocket pods. One odd point: you know all those little scoops you get on Soviet stuff? Well they're all molded seperately on this kit. Never seen that before. A detail-freak could have a ball hollowing them all out....... :blink:

2 x 10-inch Cybermen.

Classic.
The detail on the Cybermen is good, and one has just GOT to be a Templar Knight or Lancastrian fighting against Richard III :banghead:

Fujimi Phantom FGR.2 (Alcock and Brown markings)
A Model Yak-28P "Firebar"
Revell Messerschmitt 110E

All in 1:72. Plus a couple of Xtracrylic and Tamiya paints. The Phantom will be for my Profiles GB build, and the Firebar just looks cool. Picked up the 110 after reading comments about it on this thread - I'm sure I can think of something to do with it...
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<
