Project Progress but no Pics.... Yet

[Ian the Kiwi Herder]

Guys
I can't prove it with photos, but this is where I'm up to:

Mirage IIIEJn - JASDF 'Aggressor'
Painted in three tones of grey and blue, needs a quick coat of Kleer, decals (thanx to everybody who sent me Hinomarus and thingz - y'all know who you are   ).

Paint has gone on great but the end result looks a wee bit.... erm.... gay ?

Mirage VJn JASDF 'Kuril Islands Campaign 1977'
Wearing its MSG undersides and EDSG camo. Ocean Grey and H78 camo to go-on yet, then decals etc.

Difficult to tell how the end result will pan-out. You'll see soon enuff - promise.

Hunter FGA Mk71 RNoAF 'Eurovision Wars 1964'
Built, filled, sanded, undercoated.

F-100G Super Sabre West German AF
Built, filled, sanded, undercoated

All the above in 1:72, and in 1:48 we have the:
F-102K 'Eurovision Wars 1964'
Cockpit painted H140, missile painted interior green - project on hold.

Thassit for active projects. But as mentioned on too many occasions previously the fleet of Frog Hunters will be marching down the production line throughout the year.

Hey Ian, whilst you're in the States you really should take advantage of the cheap electronic goods that the American consumer economy provides, combined with the excellent £/$ ration atm  and buy yourself a digicam

Pollux

The first part of the horrible four-part story will (hopefully) appear in Martin's next What If Newsletter.

You may not like it though mon ami as the 'bad guys' are a Franco/Italian/Norwegian alliance.

But then it is meant in fun, and it's a great excuse to build Super Mysteres in Italian markings !

ok!!! lol !!! I didn't see it

I'm half French, half Italian.... But no Norwegian blood in me!      


But why not French as bad guy?? I have to admit that we feared of a dictatorship with General De Gaulle in 1958, just after years of collaboration during WWII. In 1981, when socialist President Mitterrand won the elections, some people tell their children to prepare their luggage for when Soviet Army invade us      
And not long time ago, fascist party Front National became the second party in France.

Like every country, we have an hard History, and a lot of possible alternative history

Yep. The sentence in my signature was quote by Henry Jones (Sean Connery) in Indy 3
"Let my army be the rocks and the trees, and the bird in the sky" (don't know if it's exactly that )
