These arrived the other day. Both books have nice profiles. The 109F book has pages and pages of them, the Kagero has larger profiles and comes with Cartograf decals. I got them because I am going to start building some BF109's and FW190's. The Kagero book has a profile of Hans Philipp's FW190A5 called "Minke Pinke" Its a killer profile which I think will be a fun build. Minke Pinke were Philipp's two daschund's
Nice ones Dave. Cory, I'll plan to take a trip to Rick's Friday. The Eduard Spit is enticing but I need another one like I need another appendix. That may not stop me though.....
Yep. The canopies have been in the box, painted, for around 25 years Jim ! One day, I'll get around to finishing the change of markings, and finish the model. Yeah, right ....
Today, as discussed with Cory, I visited the local hobbyshop that's closing down because of the owner having passed away recently. Anything that is not sold by Sunday will be stuffed in a sea can and sent to Hong Kong. I managed to restrain myself a bit but did walked away with these two for 50 bucks.
Magna Models #3772: Bristol 170 Freighter Mk.31 Resin Conversion Set (for Airfix Mk.32 Superfreighter)
Sanger: Fairey IIIF
The IIIF is a reissue of the Contrail vac kit, and is actually 3 complete vac aircraft kits!
Two will be kiwis (one a Fairey IIIF, one converted to a Fairey Gordon), and the third a swap item. If anyone's interested, drop me a PM!
