Chris' 1/144 Ye-50 'Not another -21 prototype!)
Okay so, tail adjustments first Chord shortened, and the rocket exhaust added - which is out of a SNEB rocket pod in the kit. Lot's more work on the base needed, pit of edge thinned and shaped plasticard probably, plus the rudder to re-scribe The various ports and rail have to be filled, and...- Steve-the-Duck

If they weren't the only game in town, I would so avoid AModel stuff. Buut... Silver Wings... Sovier 1/144 Are they worth all the effort? Depends how they turn out That wing fit is, challengging, shall we say? The tail and fuselage look pretty good though Stick with it!- Steve-the-Duck

21st century toys Macchi mc205 Veltro 1/32
Uniform colours As far as I'm aware, and what's in my books, Regia Aeronautica uniform colours often depended on the theatre where the unit was deployed, at least early on. The Metropolitan theatre, i.e. Italian mainland (plus Albania and other European areas), basic uniform was a particular...- Steve-the-Duck

Almost missed this About the seatbelts. In all my many, many, many books on Regia Aeronautica aircraft, there is, of course, not one picture of a pilot in the seat showing the belts on (or much of what they look like 'unattached') Lots of Heroic pilot pics though!- Steve-the-Duck

Kc 135 stratotanker
Anyone taking bets on how quick Kaci finishes this to her usual high standard? I'm thinking, next Wednesday? As to the provenance of this bird, that's a lot of cockpit in there, which looks very up-to-date (ish).- Steve-the-Duck

Another R32 Gtr
Got a sudden urge to do a Police van! Or the Sherpa that appeared in the Quatermass Conclusion back in 1978! In my 28mm vehicles, as yet unfinished, I've got a proper nineteen-seventies Transit van. Of course, that needs a proper Mk II Jag to go with it for a proper 'Sweeny' job Or a bronze...- Steve-the-Duck

I did not know Tamiya did a metal black rattle can. Now I'm having ideas... Y'know, it sometimes feels like you're turning one of these out one a day Certainly faster than any British car manufacturer of the last fifty-years-or-so has ever managed!- Steve-the-Duck

Worst /best kit you’ve built.
'Best' and 'worst' are always going to be subjective (except for the 'new' Airfix Hurricane 1!) There are objectively bad kits, with issues (poor fit, warping, inaccuracies), and there are kits you find 'bad' because of the effort you have to put into them (that isn't always worth it). Then...- Steve-the-Duck
