    1/900 Scale Luftwaffe

    Who knew you could carry a whole Luftflotte in your side pocket? Bloody awesome! I wouldn't put it past the aftermarket people to come out with products for this scale. Who sez modelers are a dying breed??

    Terry, could you please enlighten me about the head and back armor. As for camping out at Fowlmere, I envy you, sir! Wish I was there. Right now, I'm trying to recover from melanoma cancer surgery, and have some whopping lymphedema in my right leg. Not conducive to modeling at this point in...
