I'd rather see a CH-46.
-
Nice. Is the lodestar 1/32?
-
Now, I just need to find USS Texas in 1/350...
-
I went to a show in Arlington. Made a trade for a Val & Devestator, bought a 1/350 No. Carolina and Arizona, which had 4 PE sets, and a 1/150 Susquehannah. Also, 2 Monogram 1/32 Jeeps. Good day.
-
I heard that there were similar biases at the nats. 1/32 often gets short shrift at shows, and has for years. I figured it would change as time went on, but perhaps not?
-
Yes, welcome. As I have many of the original kits, this will be interesting.

Too soon?

Original Revell and Kotare Spitfire Mk I comparison.
LSP_Mike replied to LSP_Mike's topic in LSP Discussion
Kevin is correct, and Thierry offers an explanation. The only two kits that were ever Mk I Spitfires from the start. A direct comparison would show some of the points Thierry brings up. Similarly, a side by side of Revells P40E along with the Hasegawa kit, might be of interest. -
I was wodering if we might get a member to do a straight up comparison of the Revell Mk I and the Kotare kit? I'm curious about the shapes and geometry.

AIMS did one at least, a G6

Reference Recommendation Request: Ki-84
LSP_Mike replied to Cycling Guy's topic in Aviation Discussion & Research
There is also the old Aero Series book from the late 60s. Probably the first on this airplane, and with a good bit of history. When fueled with American gas, this plane out flew everything. -
The only other Spitty Mk I is the very early Revell kit. Pretty accurate in all, exquisite surface detail, but, the Kotare kit is the new standard I suspect. A side by side comparison would be nice.
-
RoG has specifically said no to the P 51B. No idea why, anyones guess is good.
-
Thanks Den, that was the reference I was trying to remember. Ok on a Mk Vb, but not red. Maybe black as a wee detail.
-
Thanks for the detailed response Pete. Good info

Anyone else notice the prybar in the cockpit door?
-
Thank you for the pics! A good variety of builds and very nice work. The Me-323 is shown with the Monogram 1/32 sdkfz 232 8 wheel armored car.
-
Well the stencils look good!
-
...and, just locked in a deal for a 1/150 USS Susquehanna, for a very fair price. My ship stash is just where I want it, about 15 or so.

A buddy of mine found a Revell 1/96 CSS Alabama for me. I also am getting the original Revell 24" clipper Thermopylae. From the easy build series; I have a sealed USS Constitution from the same series as well. I found a book that has the hull lofting, deck arrangment, and rigging for Alabama. Very happy with this.
