I haven't got it yet and it normally comes while I'm at SMW  :banghead: although in all fairness it came before SMW last year

I was certain it was out before SMW last year , that was why I was asking.  The publication date in the Chally fronted one is given as mid Oct, hence the timing.
im just undergoing a curious mind thing  :blink:

well after an attack of "the fear" and a good procrastinate, and then re solvating the artist ink for the white ink,  and realising that if I drew the cross hatch on the intake roundels it would a) take forever, and B) not look that good, I settled for adding the UNIT initials over the roundels, im now adding a spacer under the pylon so the winders don't interfere with the AGM,  still progress, on wards ever onwards.

slowly moving forward on this, having to repaint the winders and AGMS as the white primer didn't cover well enough ( drat)  Also been gluing up the stables building from  my La Haut seine set ( sp?)  on the downstairs table,   in other areas, finished reading  The shepherds crown by Terry Prachett,  had a tidy of the HLBS kits under the desk, getting them stacked in other areas, throwing a couple of unneeded boxes out and further increasing the packing faction / density of the made stuff.

ive got the 2 rear view mirror housings to glue to the canopy frame and its done,  varnished it earlier, and just PVAed the canopy's on.   :party:  and for a £15 kit its ben a pleasure to do, the fit has been good,  not to tight, or sloppy,  not a lot of flash to clean, took paint and glue well.   so this ones  :thumbsup:   a nice fun build.
and of course the eternal question, what next?

I agree that it's nice to listen to some music that you would not normally listen to from your music list. However if I did that on my machine it would take 56 days, 18 hours and some 8 minutes to listen to everything  :blink:
