I'll have to get one of those ---- just because I have all the other "big" ones in 1/144 scale.

Well, ARK models has the Buran orbiter out, so that's one option. I'd also like to do the Interim HOTOL...

That mean you need two 225's ?  ;), or just be clever with the mounting jigs and do alternative loads ?

I'm planning to do alternative loads. I'm still thinking about the engines: the HOTOL carrier had 8 engines, so I would have to make the inboard engines swappable too.

A mate gave me a complete Aeroclub Shackleton decal sheet yesterday.  Quite handy as the AEW 3 should be ready for paint in a day or so.

the WMMS show today  so in no particular order
a 1:24 Skoda Fabia rally car,  not sure if I keep as the box rally version, re-do as the version the garage I got mine from in the forest of dean has, or just spray it carida (sp?) red and have it as one of the ones ive owned

an Airfix 1:72 TSR-2 MS ( the manga version)  need to think up a version for this one

and a Dragon 1:35 M752 launcher and missile ( Lance )  British army as part of the long term plan.

and a good day :thumbsup:

Would that have been Winners then? They're all over the Forest with their adverts.
