My Stash Just Grew Again (2011)

[Rheged]

early steam age analogue systems that were originally fitted.

Hah, now there's a cool idea. Large-scale model (1:32 or 24 or bigger?) with a cockpit like a steam train or ship, with big shiny brass dials, levers, valves etc.

Ooh, perhaps do that to the P-47? It's big and rotund enough, so convert it to steam power!

Now there's a thought! A Jug with a chimney!    Mind you, the description of the Bucc cockpit  given to me by a former driver is " Every control planned  with supreme care to be in EXACTLY the wrong place"

More stash additions from ebay:
Novo Supermarine Attacker - bid for as it was cheap and the same seller had the following:
Frog De Havilland Hornet and in my favourite boxing too.  I'd love to get my hands on the original box art for this particular release.

Bit like Alvis's steam-powered SBC-4: http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,29790.15.html

on the way home from work, i stopped to buy a new fluorecent safetyvest 
.........oh, and a Revell 1/144 Airbus A340 (to be converted into a RW Belgian Air Force A330  )

Steam......mmmmmm.

Picked up one of the new Airfix "Hawk 81-A-2"s today. Usually known as a P-40B I believe. Looks very nice on the sprues - bodes well for the Zero due out soon. This one will most likely get floats and become a later mount of Curtis from Porco Rosso. Blue with yellow stripes on the wings etc.

 I added a couple of Frog MC 202s, a Fairey Firefly, a couple of Hasegawa armor kits ( Tiger I 'Last model' and a Panther F mit schmalturm ) and
a bagged Il-28.

The Folgores give me enough to finally start on an IMAM Ro 67, anf the Firefly gets a single-seat conversion. ( Saw one on Hyperscale years ago and thought it looked pretty cool. ) The armor kits go into some vague Heer '46 projects.

1/72 Revell Kamov KA-58 stealth helicopter
missing parts from 1/72 built models:
P-38 Lightning
Fairchild A-10
Tempest

I've got a couple of bids on ebay for spare parts/broken models/junkyard, some chap over in the states. It's worth a punt even if I don't win.

Hey! You tell your sister to lay off Mr. Bulleid! 

I'm afraid I have a soft spot for his creations.



Errr.... on topic..... AMT(?) 1/48th P-36 for conversion to a F13C-6 Seahawk.

Equally off topic, I used to work with the late Ron Pocklington who was Bulleid's 2 i/c on the Turf Burner. He could tell some tales about that job for sure!

I too have  a soft spot for anyone that can design a machine as magnificently bonkers as Leader!
