Woody excellant AM kit Sir I used one of these and it was really nice and well detailed.Be careful with the side panels mine were very very thin and the metal trim wheels I did not use for the Hase ones are better shaped.Trust me you will not be diaappointed and the price is righteous. Cheers

well here is the next kit I'm gonna try
Yak-21 Soviet jet fighter(Yakovlev design bureau)-Amodel plastic scale aircraft|airplane model kit in 1:72 scale (amodel 7247)//Scale-Model-Kits.com

Again why because it looks interesting and it's a early jet you don't see other than the mig 15 or 17 or 21

Plus I've never done a Russian plane before, or ordered from overseas so this is another first for me.

That's a sharp looking bird. I'd like to see a build thread on that one.

These aren't of the same quality as most I've seen here but I like them. Of course they will take a lot of work to look the part but then that's part of the challenge right?

This one caught my attention because of the box art. I love USN aircraft painted in Dark Sea Blue and when I saw this... I never knew of the Navy having any cobras so I bought this more so to find out about the aircraft on the cover more then anything else. As I suspected there was no USN Cobras. The box art is misleading. According to the instructions it should be painted Olive Green. Oh well still a cool paint scheme and will eventually look good next to my recently finished Russian Kobra.

 

[Airframes]

Good stuff guys. Dirk, I think the 'cobra box art is supposed to be Dark OD.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

If the Marines used it would it be blue like the Corsairs?

Probably, but I don't think the Marines ever did use them.

Nice pick ups guys!
