Jack Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Indeed great pictures, but.......WHAT THE HECK IS THIS?????.......At first i overlooked it, but something caught my eye....Is this supposed to be a representation of a dual Mirage from downunder?? Never saw a dual canopy open the way this is being built (but i could be mistaken.....maybe a local change??) red baron and BradG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Some great subjects - especially Winjeel and Nomad... Was aware of the CA-31 design - but have never seen a model of one! Iain BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradG Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) Yes it is a 1/32 scratch built CA-31. Les Applebee of Uncle Les Models does the kit in 1/72, I'm not sure if he plans to produce the kit in 1/32, but he is certainly looking at producing the Winjeel as a 1/32 kit and maybe the 1/32 Nomad. The museum owns the CA-31 mock up, it is currently in storage. Edited October 24, 2016 by BradG Iain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Yep, Les has the CA-31 available in 1/32 scale if you're keen. Kev BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe66 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks for sharing ! Those are some nicely done models. They like 'em clean Down Under eh ? Joe BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks for sharing ! Those are some nicely done models. They like 'em clean Down Under eh ? Joe I've never really thought about it before, but I'd say that that is the general trend around these parts. We've always seen the highly-weathered trend as more of a European thing. You can find models finished in every which way here, though. Kev BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Boillot Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thank you for the links. 1) I will go to sleep tonight less dumb than when I woke up 2) I quite fancy this Winjeel kit when it's available Hubert BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradG Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Brad.. Did you take any models? Yes, several, but only 2 large scale; the Luftwaffe pilot with the life vest and my Kiowa that I built for the Helicopters GB on here...although I seem to have forgotten to take a picture of it at the show.
