Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
At last I've managed some progress - not finished yet, just details and bits 'n' pieces to go - but a rough outline of the finished result. Will call this finished soon and maybe resurrect it for a diorama.Or maybe just scrap it - a horrendous build , my worst ever! I hate the end result! Steve...- Airborne01

Latest Acquisitions (2021)
Well (Mrs) Christmas has come again bearing modelling supplies (amongst other things) - don't know how I'm going to find time to build/read all this though! Once I've finished the Bussing NAG and the 'shelf queen' of the Bergepanther I'll doubtless find time! Once again, thanks Kate! Steve...- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
Shit happens! SWMBO has sorted out my crap! Very little progress due to work. Thanks to Kate for getting me through this. Here is the latest (minimal) progress....- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
A little more progress - slow due to renovations and innovations at Kate's school and a suspected case of COVID (fortunately proven negative by PCR). Managed to force the chassis squarer (at the temporary cost of minor details of course!) Same problems throughout - miniscule details, vague...- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
Well, here's the next instalment - not much done but I have been away working (!) The cab is populated by (literally) a couple of dozen prominent sink marks and ejector scars :sad-face:, some in awkward places! The assembly sequence for this model needs intense review unless you have the manual...- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
Sorry for the delay - been building stuff at my wife's school - and my abysmal attempts at photography! The chassis is nearly complete, the big lump of a motor ditto; the same problems have persisted - fiddly parts, chipolata fingers, fading eyesight, empty Sauvignon bottle - life deals some...- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
Well, I've started; a somewhat mixed start as the chassis conjured up an 'interesting' range of issues! The first step is building the air cylinders: the fit of the cylinders to the mounting frames are incredibly tight , so much so that I tried running one of my trusty No. 15 blade round the...- Airborne01

Airborne's Bussing-Nag Recovery Vehicle - I Hope!
Well, here we go - a largely OOB construction of the AFV Club model - wish me well! 15 sprues of (two tones) of sand coloured plastic, 1 clear sprue, 7 rubber tyres (urgh - to be replaced with resin!), small, well-detailed PE fret with very fine radiator grille, length of fine cord, and a...- Airborne01

Gloster Javelin Gissit!
For the price of the postage this unopened Airfix 1/48 Gloster Javelin could be yours! Still reducing stash and found another wingy thing! There are also some Luftwaffe items like 1/32 bombs and trolleys for those of an historical bent. Can be seperate or combined! Steve- Airborne01

Indecisive - Moi?!
I am of the realisation that I need to have several projects on the bench at once - Kate has pointed out that I have a stash that's gathering dust and has urged me to 'get a grip' ... I have the Meng and Takom Bergepanthers that are being worked on for the Group build and a 95% complete Vietnam...- Airborne01

Airborne's 'Sheridan Vietnam Dio'
For Andy (Smythe Meister' par excellence) I present my interpretation of our joint theme, It is (very loosely) based on a photo of the Lang pagoda, Min Hai village, Hai Hong Province. Waiting for more accessories, and need to tweak some of the productions so far.- Airborne01

Cigarette Boxes - Sizes
Strange question I'm sure but as a lifelong non-smoker I don't have a Scooby Doo; can anybody provide sizes (and possibly views) of Lucky Strike and Malborough cigarette cartons (not individual packs - I have those - ) for use in a forthcoming 'Nam diorama? Thanks in anticipation. Steve- Airborne01
