If all goes well with the Aardvark I will also build this one.

And I’m going for this option

Nice one Ian, a mini Scooter

 

[Geoffers]

Wow that will look really teeny next to the F-111

Geoff.

 

[Neil]

Yeah, and good luck with teeny weeny PE on 1/144 scale! Looking forward this one.

 

[HAWKERHUNTER]

Blimey Ian. Good luck with that little thing.

 

[boatman]

YES its as near as small as my hornet B25 good luck sir

 

[papa 695]

Well I thought I’d better make a start on this one. So I built up the seat using the PE provided.

 

[flyjoe180]

Goodness me, PE in 1/144 scale Nice work Ian

 

[yak face]

Missed this Ian , love it though . PE in 1/144 - PING!
Its bad enough trying to wrestle seat belts in 1/72 but at this scale ! Looks a very nice little kit though ( Little being the operative word !) , very comprehensive decal sheet with some tiny stuff on there to battle with .

 

[HAWKERHUNTER]

I dont know how you can work on something so small. Great job.

 

[Neil]

The mind boggles, the basic kit in 1/144 is tricky enough, much less adding PE to that.

 

[boatman]

WELL my scratchbuilt NIMITZ was in 1/144 scale with 54 planes on an they were in 1/144 scale an quite enjoyable to build but took me a yr just to build them all an some lit up so its a nice scale to build in

I’ve now got the rest of the cockpit built and fitted. Not that you can see much of it.

But I’ve got a little problem, I haven’t got a canopy piece for it. I don’t think I’ve lost it because when I opened the plastic bag it came in I placed all the parts into a fast food container for safe keeping.
I’ve sent an email to Eduard, so hopefully they can help.

 

[yak face]

Great cockpit Ian , the canopy will be tiny on this so could easily vanish with a slight draught or a good sneeze ! Hopefully eduard will come good for you .

 

[flyjoe180]

Looking good Ian, hoping you can get the canopy you need from Eduard.
