      You can never have too many kits ( we may start one kit then we do a bit of research etc and before you know it there's another idea and a another kit and we get tempted and we end up buying it.


      I'm in process of completing tank and diorams still got personnel and some weathering to do but I'm always looking for a new kit. Just got the new Airfix Model World magazine in and I'm thinking of the Jagdpanzer iv/70 Lang!!/ a 1/32 Meteor ( there's a whole willy wonka model world out there)


      I've still got stacks of projects to do and like you want to build them all. So I know your dilemma

          I'm not a ship person either Jim ........ But I fancied a go at one.......... and I do like the unusual. Besides it'll be a challenge, apparently the fit is rubbish and that rigging will be a bitch............

                  Good man as has been said you can never have too many kits , I've only been back into building 2yrs and I have 13 kits in my stash, if my missus says anything I just say one word "bikinis " she buys 7 or 8 for each holiday, I could equally say shoes, wraps, evening dresses but the one word is usually enough to illicit silence.

                    That's it now ......... No more kits........


                    Although I might just have a look at White Ensign Models, apparently they do the metal gun barrels, guard rails and brass propellers for the Kniaz Suvorov........... But I'm only going to take a look just in case I might need them in the future.

                        Well maybe......... But none of it is in stock .........and as far as I can tell from googling it none of the other alledged stockists have any either .......... So even if I really wanted to get some (which I don't) I wouldn't be able to

                                Glad to be of help Peter. Like you, I couldn't find any PE for this kit. I'm still looking to find what PE is available for the Arizona I just got so if I come across anything I'll let you know.
