Quite the selection Glenn. Not sure some of those experimentals would qualify as WW2 but you have lots of others. The Me410 would be nice to see.

I am in a similar position though not as many choices. Top of the list would be an RCAF Beaufighter by Tamiya with Aviaeology decals.

 

[JKim]

Wow Glenn, you have so many choices! The Dinah sounds interesting to me. I have nothing on the shelf so I'd have to go out and buy something and nothing is really jumping out and saying BUILD ME! Right now I am considering an Academy 1/48 P-38 in Olive Drab Pacific Theater markings and going to the full menu aftermarket route. Too bad the Eduard special edition boxings are no longer available.

 

[T Bolt]

You must be psychic John, the Dinah is near the top of my list right now along with the A-26G. Terry took some close up pictures of a Dinah in a museum sometime ago for me I'd like to be able to finally use but I still have some time to make up my mind.

 

[fubar57]

I've got a B-25J, a Mosquito and a Ta 154 Mistel though I may save the last one until I get better at air brushing.....a lot better.

 

[T Bolt]

You get better by doing it. Go for it George

 

[Jeff Hunt]

It looks like I will be doing the Ventura but there is still a few days till it is final.
Besides the Ventura and the PBY I also have in the stash the following:

Trumpeter Wellington Mk.I
Meng Me-410
Monogram Do-335
Monogram Me-262

Not as large as some other fella's stashes but a bit of a choice.

Cheers,

jeff

 

[fubar57]

Nice ones. Just remembered I have the Do335 as well in the "Captured" stash

 

[Crimea_River]

In addition to the Beaufighter I have a Do217, Avro Anson, Bf110, and a B-25 all 1/48.

Hey Andy...she may not be sexy but I would love to see what you could do with the Anson.

Jeff

 

[Crimea_River]

Should I make it yellow?

 

[fubar57]

 

[Jeff Hunt]

Should I make it yellow?

If yellow is historically accurate then I think you should do so.

Jeff

 

[JKim]

Yellow Avro Anson eh? I'm ok with it as long as it's armed.

I forgot about the Do-335... that'd be a good subject for this build. Is this the same Monogram kit that I built as a kid nearly 40 years ago?

 

[JKim]

Glenn.. I think you should do the Dinah. I haven't seen that kit built and that is a not a common subject. And George... I think you should go for the Mistel although, technically, it has THREE engines!

Apparently I have an Ar234 in the "Captured" stash as well

 

[Jeff Hunt]

Yep but I am pretty sure Tamiya has one as well and would be far superior I should think.

Jeff

Have a few for this one.

[T Bolt]

I didn't even think of the P-38, I have 3 of them in the stash. I guess I should take a closer look at what's there.
