discussion Long Term Projects?

[Guest]

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.

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.

Trey that's a great idea. Surely it's got to be a Schrage Musik armed nightfighter (I like the Bf110) so that you can put it more or less under the bomber saving space Cheers

Thats the route I was thinking! Still researching who what where and when so I can be accurate(as possible anyway)

I've been building a knocked out 1/35 Tamiya Panther Ausf A on and off. I'll hopefully have something to show you all in the not too distant future.
