Picked up a 1/48 Italeri Hawk yesterday, cracking kit with some very nice detail and a PE set for seat belts and instrument panels, going to do her real in the old trainer red, white and lt grey scheme.  ;D
May get another and do it in the green and grey scheme with a Sea Eagle missile fitted. :thumbsup:

No kits yet for me this year, but I grabbed a handful of those New Millenium Toys "1/144" Military vehicles off the clearance rack at Walmart.  They're neat little vehicles, but no way are they 1/144.  I'm not even sure they're properly scaled to one another.  I picked up three halftracks, a US M3A3 and the German Sdkfz.7 and Sdkfz.251 Ausf. D, and a US 2.5-ton truck.

Airfix 1/48th TSR2....not sure what to do with it yet.
Gloss white RAF?
I'm thinking RED Imperial Roman Air Force though :wacko: That'll get the cameras snapping! Full diorama, crew, etc.. :banghead:

Forgot to say that in Hobbycraft today I bought an Airfix Hudson I...ideal for my current Biggles theme as it'll be civilianised.

Also wondering what a Hudson on floats would be like?
Nice decal sheet by the way with 4 options, all in perfect register too :rolleyes:

Today marks my first official kit acquisition - from RotorheadTX, a 1/72 Air Lines (ex-Frog) Bristol 138.  I hope you all will forgive the ignorance of an American, but I didn't know much about this aircraft before I bought it.  I'm now thinking of uprating it into an interceptor for some kind of early 1940s "Earth vs. the Flying Saucers" scenario.  It needs a bigger engine (or engines) and some great honking cannon.

From flea bay, a revell 1/72nd scale Mirage 3, 2 seater with south African decals. £4.50 delivered. Very reasonable.
Oh not really a model but of some relevance my friends new book " A very British civil war". The book is about an alternative 1930's when Edward the 8th refuses to abdicate provoking a constitutional crisis. This in turn leads to confrontation and civil war. The book is primarily for wargamers but the ideas and detail make it an excellent read.
