As I'm coming to the end of the ICM Spitfire MK.XVI, I'm wondering what next?
The Spitfire seems to have had a lot of interest - or is it British WWII Fighters? - anyway, it'll be one of these:

I was quite amused to see that the Eduard Airacobra is quite a collectors' item - mine is in a very battered box, from an ebay auction many moons ago - it has the marking option of 601 squadron, the only RAF unit to use them ( briefly! ).
Which one would you like to see blogged?
Dave
p.s. bribery attempts will be looked on favourably! ;)

Kits are meant to be built not just collected so this gets my vote for you to get cutting and sticking. Also it's not an aircraft we see commonly built.

WELL Dave you just built a spitty an very nice it was too really enjoyed the clipped wing job an i never did like the airacobra so for my vote its got to be that lovely mustang in invashion marking will look nice an colorefull

We see plenty of Spitfires and Mustangs, so the Airacobra gets my vote.

Actually got to go with Airacobra. Oops of the other two seen. So will be interesting to see something different.

ATB.

I'm definitely for the Aircobra too.
Not a nice plane to see but a very peculiar, then interesting, one and, as far as I know, quite appreciated by soviet pilots.
 
P.S. That's really spooky!!
I was typing that and before I posted it up Andy popped his one up..... What's the chances of that??!!!:)
 
Plus 1 for the Airacobra, though to be honest they all look good to me.

I'm going with a Fiat G.50-II 'Freccia' next, mainly because I bought some Italian colours for an abandoned Battle of Britain project and I can use them on this :)
 
Aircobra, because I think they are cool & I'd like to see how Eduard executed it.

Even though it's an early stage in the poll, I seem to detect a certain bias towards the Airacobra
but I may do a Trump, and declare the Eduard Typhoon as the winner! :tongue-out2:

The fix is in. "We ben stole from".:smiling4::smiling3::smiling2:
 
I hear the black choppers now. Oh, wait, a black Suburban just went down the street. Oooohhh nooooo.
