Always had a soft spot for the Whitley. Not the most attractive aircraft ever designed but certainly interesting. I remember as a kid being hugely jealous of a friend of mine because he had a Frog model kit of the Whitley and I wanted one. Still do...I'm just not prepared to put in the effort required to make the old Frog kit look decent (my modelling skills aren't that great - I'm more of a "put the glue in the box and give it all a shake" modeller!).

"put the glue in the box and give it all a shake"

Lets not forget adding oodles of inaccurate paint colour to add to that special "what a mess you've made of that exquisite and horrendously expensive model kit" factor. Mark, you're not the only one who experienced this...

Nice to know my sub-mediocrity is experienced elsewhere in the universe!

 

[parsifal]

you two are on to me arent you. id probably do better to use the "shake and bake" approach than the laborious torture that i subject most kits unfortunate enough to fall into my clutches.

Hope that chap has a good set of lungs!

Never mind he has just been shot down at night in the cold cold sea, perhaps a bit smouldering.

Man, in another week he should be finished.
