  1. I would love to buy a few in 1/24 and 1/18.
  2. I think an Egyptian T-34-100 conversion would be cool. For anyone not familiar with it, they cut up the original turret and put a Soviet 100mm gun in it, facing backwards, then welded sheet metal on to make a closed turret. Accurate Armor made a conversion in 1/35. I would buy one, but I have no idea if anyone else would.
  3. You definitely wanted it more than me. I would give anything for one of these…except $800.
  4. I would love to have an RB-57D or WB in NASA markings.
  5. That is awesome. I would like to do an F as a recon bird. Are there any plans to sell conversion parts?
  6. Mike- all that makes sense. As for why I find all of this so fascinating, I suppose it’s a number of things. I love a good beer. I’ve brewed some of my own. I also make infused liquors, and I’m a veteran. I showed my buddies how to make their own alcohol in Afghanistan. The idea of having beer delivered by Spitfire and Hawker Typhoon is an interesting footnote in history…for me, anyway.
  7. I haven’t seen the back end of the kegs. Was there a parachute to get it safely on the ground or was it just removed on a runway??
  8. ICM and Italeri (ex Occidental) both offer it in 1/48. I read that the Italeri kit’s nose is too long. I ordered an ICM off eBay. I’m sure the beer barrels are close enough. I may take measurements and try making a 1/24 barrel on my Sherline tools. I can use the rotary table for scribing or even drawing lines between staves. They are out of scale on every plastic barrel I have seen.
  9. There is, but I’m looking for 1/24. Also- the box art on the Masterbox ace pilots set shows Johnnie with his black Labrador Retriever, which is not included. The dog is the whole reason I bought the set.
  10. I would think there would be more interest in 1/32, since it’s smaller and less expensive. I could be wrong, though. This one will have gear up and hang from the ceiling. It’s for a friend of mine for his game room/man cave. We both love a good beer and I think he would really like the plane. I would like to add an an electric motor for the prop, and come up with a hidden switch.
  11. A Johnnie Johnson figure would be great, also.
  12. What is the cargo net made of? It looks really good.
  13. Close enough will work. Thank you.
  14. I’m curious about how it would fit in a non-LSP application. Thanks
  15. The proposed B-4 recon version. (I guess it was proposed, anyway.) Like the 1/72 DML kit. I’m trying to post a pic but it’s not working.
