I'm still messing around with my tiger reloading and service somewhere in normandy, Just received a shed load of polly sheets and blocks.

I have a 1/72 scale Corvette on the back burner, you know the Revell one , HMS Snowberry. Mine will be as HMS Bluebell as in 1945

Been start, stop, start, stop for a good four years now..... (Thats embarrassing!) To make it look a bit better I have gotten hold of all the white metal and PE from Great Little Ship.

I really should blow the dust of it one day and get it done!

Look forward to seeing the Tornado come together Al-

Got a scratchbuilt model of HMS Serapis (1779) on the go. Started in 2003 and not even half finished yet. Most ive done on it in the last 2 years though is dust it.

My Ben Ain steamer has taken somewhere in the region of eight years so far. No problem though as I reckon I only have a couple of years to go!! There again I've been saying that for about the past six years!! http://www.scale-models.co.uk/boats-ships/1711-steamer-ben-ain.html

Wow Richard, i forgot about this project, it was so long ago when i last saw it. You have me now. The Tiger Moth will wait. Im looking for a good Steamer kit now.

I want to do a collection of 1:48 US Navy fighters from WW2. Just at the idea stage at the moment. I have to reduce my stash first and it would help if I didnt keep buying more kits!

I'm with you there Keith! I want to do the aircraft of 41 Squadron (my old squadron) from 1916 to 2006, but I keep buying other stuff! Now, if anyone has a Dynavector 1/48 Javelin that they want to get rid of....

I'm about to start in on a heng long KV-1, speaking of which, I need to start a tread on that, I could use help finding some specific parts.

[Guest]

im gonna build a C-130 and a DC-3 but both out of RAF Lyneham - need to do a bit of work to find out details for the aircraft in the timeframe. My Dad was in 47th AD based there

I'm expecting this to be in 1/72 scale St. Ian ..... it'd be 12 ft long but think of all the figures you could sit and paint, after all we've established you have the patience

That reminded me. I am doing 74sq the Tiger Squadron. Most of the kits are easy to find in 1/48, a couple of them are proving to be harder to find.
