I am not that much into WW1 airplanes and don;t have any kits of them, but how many of y'all have a set of these books? They are like the William Green WW2 Warplanes books but are by J.M. Bruce and cover WW1. I do not know how many volumes were ever released.

There most likely were at least five volumes by J.M. Bruce. The dust jacket of my volume four says volume five covers French fighters, Hanriot HD.1 to M.S. Type AN. Unfortunately my WW1 series ends with Vol.4 which is the first Volume of the French fighters. The five page forward covers both Vol. 4 & 5. There are also eight blank pages at the end of Vol. 4 for "notes" .... as if I would write in my books.

I have kind of filled in my last open corner in my office room. She kept getting in the way of the camera. This doesn't include my atticstorage space I can't even walk into anymore.

 

[Viking1066]

Great stash mate.

Just arrived from Hannant's - two shades of Olive Drab enamel, another addition to the razor saw selection, and resin engines for the B-24 project.

Good stuff Terry. Looking forward to that project.

 

[Airframes]

It's underway Evan, and almost ready to install the exposed engine.

 

[A4K]

Do you have a thread up on it Terry?

 

[Airframes]

Yep, a long one, "B-24 Diorama", in "Start to Finish Builds".
It starts with the vehicles, but has now moved on to the aircraft itself.

 

[A4K]

Cool, cheers mate. I'll check that out.

Bit of an "Oops" with the B-24 - kit has decals for "Witchcraft", which was a B-24H, not J.
From what I've seen of the previews, it looks reasonably good overall, with nice interior detail, although it looks like the turrets still have joints in the clear areas, like the Monogram kit.
Still welcome though, and I'd considered getting it for my B-24 project, but having to do the same mods made me decide against it.
