    Airborne's a Happy Bunny!

    Must have been a good boy whilst the in-laws were in residence! Kate bought me these! The Ontos is self-explanatory but the other is going to be 'challenging' I reckon! It's a late war Wehrmacht motorcyclist - it will be my first 3D printed model - detail is excellent, looks very fragile - no box illustration, instructions or colour callouts but that's not really an issue! The whole kit is absolutely running with mould release agent! Won't be starting either for a while as I have a couple on the bench and then want to finish some Shelf Queens

    Very nice Steve,
    The Ontos is a cool thing IMHO.... Despite being kinda weird looking :thinking:,I did one a while back, but it didn't have an interior,so I'll be interested to see what it's like....are you going to do a Vietnam dio with it?!:thumb2:

      Wow. Although 1/35 is “too big” for me, I have to honestly admit that I keep an eye on the new 1/16 kits from time to time.
      This will definitely be an interesting build and I'm sure you won't be able to wait long before you start! - At least that's what I hope! :smiling5:

        'Nam it is! Hoping for aftermarket ali barrels and some USMC grunts in the near future!

            At least it won’t be a huge model despite the large scale

              Is the motorcycle also in 1/16 scale?

                I think so, yes Andreas, but I haven't measured it yet (in case I'm possessed of an uncontrollable urge to start yet another project!
