    I'm more than happy to recommend models for forum members to spend their money on! I'd only do that for models I've actually made, and enjoyed........................

    ......patagonia......account hijacking....I think I need to have a word with Matron about these delusions of yours!! :smiling5:

    In all seriousness thanks for the recommendation. I've obviously left it in the bags until I get around to building it, lest I loose any parts, but it does look very good. It's also sooooooo much larger than my usual 1/72 kits!!

    Thanks again.

      Morn Buddy,

      Nice haul of kits there Andrew. Looks like you will have a lot of fun building those. Oh, and don't worry about Dave. It's probably just something in his water. A fine single-malt whiskey maybe...............

      Oh, and now that you will be working in 1/35 scale, I guess we will have to call you "Mr. Big", huh???........

      Prost

        Never made one of these 1/43 models before - cheap enough to try out!

            3 kits.......
            Something OLD,if not the first kit i EVER made as a young lad,then it`s certainly close to it........ Just a bit of a trip down memory lane,it`s even the same "Bagged" example.....
            [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1172704[/ATTACH]
            Next,in line with my current liking for slightly unusual looking AFVs,another Mirage kit.......
            [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1172706[/ATTACH]
            Finally,and i have NO IDEA WHY!!:flushed:.........
            [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1172707[/ATTACH]
            ...... guess i`ll be doing a little WW2 Diorama in the not too distant then!!:thinking:

            Like me Andy , the Red Barron was one of my first,built, painted and hanging on the ceiling with in the day . Unfortunately mother got caught up in it and threw it in the bin :crying: Suppose she thought it was a bat in her hair

                Funny how work boots are the only thing that you wish didn't look brand new when you buy them.

                  Ain't that the truth, I remember being teased.
                  Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                            I can only imagine what that entailed Ian
