I'm still recovering from the house move but this lot were in a box in the shed. Apologies to any collectors out there, but this lot must be worth about £100 in good nick. Ju88, Javelin, Blenheim 1, Bf109F, Ta152, Whitley, He162, Bf110G...........all got to be built.


Hmm. Such a long time since I last posted a message, I've forgotten how to put the picture in!
If this is Upper Silesia, one can only wonder what Lower Silesia is like.

!/72nd scale Tanmodel TAI Hurkus A trainer prototype.

Whats that one like as they are looking at doing the Buccaneer in 72nd


Looks alright on the sprues. Molding gates are a bit heavy in places, but nothing to worry about.
It comes in a very sturdy box and is very well presented over all. If this is a taste of things to come from this outfit we are in for some good things from them in the future.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Their site also says they're planning to do the CASA CN-235 and -295 in 1/72nd: those have lots of whiffing possibilities.

Unless I'm missing something, I don't think you do: as far as I can see, the CN-235 has only been kitted by small companies like Broplan and Scratchaviation. Are you maybe mixing it up with the G-222/C-27 Spartan?

House moves  :blink: :blink: Scary

There's some notes on the pinned section of the General Modelling Sections page that might help or jog a latent memory  :thumbsup:

Brillo, I hope they do the military add-ons so I could make the RW IAC -235s, I just love their blue and blue scheme.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Not to mention that fact that Jordan's working on a gunship version with an M-230 Chain Gun, Hellfires and those guided 2.75" FFARs.
