115 Spitfires? There might be someone right on this forum going to surpass that! ;D


He already has, WELL past 115 IIRC.

I must admit the last time I went to the Tyneside show his table of WIF Spitfires was both stunning and staggering and only part of the collection.

Here's the Spitfire table at said show

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Stumbled across this by pure dumb luck as I was doing research for a future Mordi Alon Avia S.199 build. 

Looks like the same Bonanza I built here (Arii) but certainly a different paint scheme!

I found it on "Karl's Models" website.  http://www.vonhoffmann.org/bonanza_bomber.html

Looks like they applied them windows with a mop, too, but I sure like it!  ;D ;D Eye catching and pretty strange for sure...  it actually makes sense in a way considering 1948 and on early IAF trying desperately to get their hands on anything to fly.

Not one to boast and I don't have the exact number but probably closer to 300.  Certainly over 250.

Came across this neat Hummer concept:

That looks very buildable! A good use for the Italeri kit

Wow ! Is that ever cool ! I'd move the leg joints closer to the wheel wells tho, make them have a purpose.

I hope they repowered it.  That 6.2L Detroit Diesel (even turbo'd) has problems accelerating a Humvee

i've got something similar involving a Bren Gun Carrier and Gundam parts which i've abandoned.
Maybe i'll rip it apart and start again with a small car.

They would be a good basis.  As would a Mini.  However i have none in my stash.  I do have a number of smallish Japanese cars but i'm thinking maybe go the other way and use something like an Edsel...
