It's going to be OoB, it may have pilots in it, and the loadout will be Soviet..... oh yes and it will be a desert scheme (my fave  :wub: )





Don't know when I'll start cutting plastic, couple of weeks maybe.

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.

Dear G*d.... have you ever seen anything like this ?













An understatement might be "Got my work cut-out for me", more accurately "What the h*ll was I thinking of ?" may be more appropriate !

Why not add armour plating to cover up gaps.
These can be made by soaking precut pieces of paper (ie from your printer) in white glue and then slap them in the appropriate place.
They're thin, will conform to the shape/curves and after painting will add interest to the surface. :thumbsup:

Do I have to commit ritual suicide on here as well Ian?

I sold the kit to him you see...but I can honestly say that I didn't know how bad it would be...if I'd known that I'd have charged the bugger more for it and called it a classic!!!...:P
It's a big, wide world out there...so if it's all the same to you I'll just stay indoors!

Uffda!   I've got a pair of them and might have to go do a bit of test fitting tonight.

Do they sell Milliput by the Kilo over there?   That is serious gaposis!  :blink: :blink:



No doubt you can pull it off, however.
