There's a cracking "build article" on the Blenheim I in the Airfix Magazine.


Yup, going to have a good read of it before I start building my two

Received today from Ebay

1 x 1/72 Anigrand Sikorsky S-67, Not sure how to finish this, the Black overall with the yellow cheat line that comes in the box is tempting but so is Olive Green or whatever the colour is of an operational machine.

Gondor

Airwolf colour scheme!!

Good one!

If you want something operational but colourful, how about a late eighties USMC machine in three colour camouflage?

USMC would fit with the troop carrying capability. I shall have to think about this as I was going to do US Army.

To my surprise a NIB Matchbox Provost at a reasonable price (EUR 5) on ebay, plus a very convenient leftover decal sheet from a Special Hobby kit that can be 100%ly used on whif projects (all three options!).

In the pipeline: a Heller Mirage F.1C and another Academy MiG-23 (yes, you know what that means  :wacko:)

I got some paint and an Airfix 1/76 Buffalo IV MLV.
I only bought it for the Jeep but following an examination and some research have some plans for an amphibious assault tank armed with a BFO gatling.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

From AJ Aviation Publishing (AKA 'son of The Aviation Hobby Shop'), cheap second-hand Airfix Vigilante for whiffery.

I've always wanted an Airfix Vigi.  Now I have one.

BTW the shop - as a shop, I don't mean as a business - is a big improvement over the TAHS original.  More space, better layout, parking is easier, Jan and Tony just the same!

Great to have LHS back.

That's good to know. I found the original shop very difficult to navigate. I may well take the train down that way one sunny summer's day

Just won on ebay:
Provance Moulage Aston Martin DB7 Coupe.  It'll go with the one I won a few years back that I'm too afeared to do in case I knack it and can't get another.
