Fro models for sale my Mig 1.44 arrived today, and fairly reasonably priced also. I have already built one of these, but this one will be a bit special when I come round to building it, thinking how many R-77's can I stick on this thing :wacko:

Just arrived in the post today, one of these monsters: http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN916415  :wacko:

Got a good deal on it (minus the enormous box) from a chap in Canada who didn't want it.
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<

Well it's been a long time since the stash grew...nothing added for about 8 months except for the four preordered Airfix TSR.2s that arrived a few months ago.  I made a trip to the LHS today though and added a Hobbyboss CH-46E...it may end up as a RN commando helo operating in SE Asia...


So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Airfix 1/72nd Tucano from ebay. Mostly 'cos it was there and cheap, but it gave me the idea for the Pistonator GB, so if that ever gets launched, it may be getting some or all of: Peregrine engine, greenhouse canopy (Meteor NF.11?), tailwheel gear. Another classic example of "box inflation" too: this thing is tiny and simple, yet it's rattling around in a Series 3 box that could hold four of them. I bet you could get a 1/48th one in there... :unsure:

Also got a roll of 0.5mm masking tape, mostly 'cos I just had to see it for myself.... :blink:

I got some of that from Little Cars - they do 3mm down to 0.5mm. The 0.5mm and 1.00mm is great for seat belts. The others for the initial canopy masking - I am getting better at it, by infinitesimal amounts but I am honest  :banghead:

Your insight serves you well Luke....  India would be good!

I eyed up an Italeri Blinder the other week & similar thoughts were going through my mind, although it stayed on the shelf.  All sorts of fun you can have with Indian camouflage!
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.

Listen to them! ;) They may be on to something!

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?

 Nothing too exciting, a Frog M.C. 202 in 1/72. I have a notion to pick up a couple more to cobble together
the tri-motor Italian Heavy fighter discussed awhile back.

Today arrived my Italeri Saab Gripen, what I am going to do with this I don't yet know, and a Mig 17 by Kopro. The mig will be part of the low end fighter aircraft belonging to my Nicaraguan cartel.
Cheers,
Chris.

Do you hear the voices too?

I agree you should defo listen to them.

Got another 1/72 Academy Tempest V from the LHS today..... and a Caproni Ca.314.... and a grubby old Airfix DC-9.

The Tempest's gonna give up it's Sabre for my Sabre-Blenheim and the Caproni will give up it's Isotta-Fraschini Deltas probably to a Hurricane and a LAGG.
