Yes.  Gasser or Super Stock class.  Maybe even A/FX with an altered wheelbase...

Nope, my toes are fine thank you. Courtesy of regular chiropody visits courtesy of the NHS and Type 2 Diabetes 

Not a kit but a new standing, flexible daylight light for reading and modelling. Great value and delivery via EBay. I really needed to upgrade my lighting.

That has soooo got to be a figure of Herman Goering in a dress!  Or even funnier, Himmler.

For drag racing it'd need a DB 601 in the nose. The G4 was rather heavy...

I don't have one of them, but I do have a pair of 1/24 Napier Sabres...

Today, along with some xmas presents for nephews, I received from BNA model world some Vallejo paints (a USN blue and 3 RLM desert shades) and a Legend Productions resin stowage set for the Tamiya SdKfz 222.

Chris, I picked up an Islander not very long ago, box art had it in a yellow scheme. But in the box all the parts are there to do the Defender too.

The only ones I know of are resin kits by Omega Models: https://omega-models.com/index.php?route=common/home

They look nice but they're expensive. They do piston Islanders (under civil aircraft) and a range of Defenders (including the AEW one) under military.


I got the Spot-On nose because I picked up an Airfix Islander/Defender at Telford for a surprisingly reasonable price, and it seemed like destiny, especially since I have some Falkland Islands Government Air Service decals for one...
