Perhaps it would save bandwidth for just those members who havn't bought a pair of Airfix Cranberries to own up.

i wouldnt worry about it, we will all be rushing out to buy the Airfix sea Harriers when they get released...so the cycle continues......................
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Just the one?  I thought you'd have a stash of Model Alliance sheets ready to do all those South African B(I)8s.  Got to be honest, if the silver/PRU blue had the castles on it, I'd be tempted by it....

Begemot 1/72 Su-27 Flankers Part 1 and full stencil decals for a Su-27. Will probably be real world Flankers.

One Sky Models sheet for Macchi Mc 202s. Amazing sheet with excellent value for money. HERE's a big pic of the sheet. Printed by Cartograph. Some of these decals will go on a Revell 1/72 Fw Flitzer (onion ring camo). :wub:

All ordered from the big H a week ago. Across the Channel, that ain't half bad.
Cheers,
Moritz


Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Got a sheet of


Ventura Decals RNZAF " Fern Leaf" roundels 1956-1970


Planing to use them on a Sunderland  ;D  ;D
Everything looks better with the addition of British Roundels!

*holds up hand* I do not own a Canberra at all. Not one.  Then again, I lean heavily to ships.

Negotiating a nice deal for a Skywave Sovremenny, a buddy got me an early Birthday present of the Dragon Pyotr Velikiy 3-in-1, so far so good.

eBay again !.....

1:72 Esci F-111A for seven English pounds. Great for What Iffing - Obviously a 'Merlin' all I have to do is decide which scheme to use from my carefully hoarded Xtradecal TSR2 sheets. Just watched a Hasegawa F-111F go for £72.00 (US = $120.00)..... Madness I tell you  :blink:
