Lee is refering to this beast :

You need a few more pylons on that Jim, it's a little 'under-weaponed'.............. 

I don't think it needs any more weapons, but it does look deserving of a shark mouth........

I know what you are thinking.
However the markings are for a RW Skyraider which did not have a shark mouth, and despite my natural inclinations, it did not get one.
It is all part of the subtle deception. 

Heard at one of the shows where it was on display, it might have been Glasgow, " You know there is something wrong with that Skyraider"

From Evil-Bay, an A Model 1/144 Canberra Mk.8.  This is for the upcoming Hunter, Lightning, Canberra GB.
I do like the box art even if the artist has missed off the ventral gun pack.

1 x Trumpeter 1/350 HMS Colombo (only $3 more than via BNA Model World)

To go with the earlier purchase of a Trumpeter 1/350 HMS Calcutta

They are going to end up as a pair of RAN C-Class cruisers, probably HMAS Cairnes (not the naval base) & HMAS Coonawarra (not the naval base).

Does it come with a Cigar and a Brown Overcoat?

A gift from a neighbour:  a very elderly MiG15, partially assembled and abandoned many, many years ago.  I think it's the Airfix kit ( I remember building it  in the early 1960's, it has the Polish transfers).   It  may well end up as an RAF aggressor aircraft for training purposes. Probably Soviet green or raspberry ripple, but alternatively maybe a Swedish "interloper" in the Baltic area  from the early 1960's

Every time you think you've finished it... Just one more thing!

There is a suburb of Chicago called Melrose Park. I was thinking "Awesome, a hobby store I can check out!" Not so much.

Nah, that's USS Colombo.

You can still check it out, it's just a fairly long flight beforehand.
