Fantastic Kevin! I used to do mainly 1/72nd, with about 20% 1/48th and 5% 1/32nd. Now, my knackered hands can't really cope with the 'small' scale, which is a pity, as there's more scope there, especially for dioramas, or a group of aircraft. Of course, they also tend to be less expensive, and there's room for more!
Matt and a couple of guys have asked me to do a similar thing, and show all my models, which I will after Christmas. There're only 20 or 24 left at present, the oldest being built 30 years ago, the latest this week! Need to do some cleaning and repairs first though, haven't got the luxury, these days, of cabinets or cases (yet)!

Are you clearing them out from time to time?I only did that once in a move must of been about 15-20 models to the kids on the block alot of 1/32 but yea lets see them Terry .Heck we know only other modelers really appreciate the efforts we go too.My wife here of late has taken an interest in the ships don't know why maybe the A/C were to much military??Thks for the tidbit on the camo scheme never knew but research is hit-and-miss w/me.Catch ya later Kevin

Yes, a couple of house moves over the years, so gave some to museums, and some to kids etc. Unfortunately, a couple of the larger 1/32nd scale ones got too damaged to make good, one was a Mosquito PRXVI, converted from the Revell BIV, one was a P38J, and the other a RAF Phantom, converted from the Revell F4J. All beauties, but ended up in splintered bits!!!
PS, if it would help, I can post a drawing or two, based on the original War Office diagrams, for 'A' scheme and 'B' scheme camouflage patterns, plus the sizes, colours and positioning (regulation) of codes, serials, roundels and fin flashes etc.

If I get onto another British subject I well get in touch I think I am going to either do the 109,202 or a 205 for the group build.Just about done with the Pittsburgh I think I like playing in the water .

 

[109ROAMING]

Love those ships Kev!

Its a shame Terry ,that 1/32 RAF Phantom sounds good!

 

[Matt308]

Yeah still waiting on your "left-overs" Airframes. Believe me I can understand damage, dust and time weathering your models. My oldest boy has all my remains of hundreds, now only about 25, on his ceiling. Believe you me. They were were much more impressive when I was younger.

Great collection Kevin.Excellent.

 

[Airframes]

Don't worry Matt, I'll get it sorted and post a series of pics, probably two models at a time. I should have some pics, somewhere, of some of the 'deceased' models, which are probably on transparency. I know I've got one shot of the 1/32nd scale RAF Phantom. I'll get prints made after Christmas, and get those I have posted also.
Thanks for the interest.

 

[109ROAMING]

Looking forward to it Terry

I'm with all, TL, and I particularly like the Mossie, it looks used and worn, as it should do!

 

[muller]

You've been busy TL! Like the markings on the G-10, looks like the soviet black/green camo markings.
