Looks like they'll turn out well.

After getting a few more models due to a sale yesterday, I did a count and discovered to my horror that I have eleven unfinished kits laying around! A Bf 109, Hs 129, Tornado and Ju 88 among the main ones.

Only 11??? (Damn, did I say that out loud?)

Ok, well maybe comparatively it's not that many, but it's a lot for me!

I think most of the Esci stuff became Italieri, which became Italeri - not sure if the F86 is still in their range at the moment though.

Hub, good start, hope you have enough parts to continue. Pretty neat stand, don't think I've ever seen one like that

I copied that stand from something I saw in a magazine once, quite handy
I misplaced some of the Sabre bits as I got frustrated with the kit years ago, then I thought I'd have another go and I had to look high and low for the canopy base and a couple of other things, think I have found all of it now

I'm digging the Sabre. I just completed the Airfix F-86 the Huff.
I've finally pulled all of the tape off AF1 after masking it again and applying a coat of light gray to some areas of the fuselage and the bottom of the wings. all's I gotta do is apply a coat of future floor wax to it and she'll be ready for decals...I just gotta get a new bottle for my airbrush.

A very light application might be OK Rob, but check it on some painted scrap first. If it reacts, then a small dab of butter or vegetable based 'spread', such as margarine, will do the trick.

WD-40 is a petroleum lube, shouln't do anything to the plastic but messy, use a dry teflon type or even wax or bar soap
