  1. Highly recommend the book above
  2. And that was only asked of Colin... There were other researchers with other lists
  3. Yes plenty of times. I stick everything aside and take a fresh look at it a few months later. If I deem it not worth saving or I have lost interest, I will list it on the local eBay or Scale Model Graveyard Auction page on FB for $1. I am surprised by how much I get for them most of the time and gives me some money back so it is not a complete loss.
  4. Completed on New Year's Eve of 2023, Kotare Models 1/32 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Ia (Mid) Brian Lane Edition. I only managed to build two kits during 2023 both being Kotare Spitfires, and once again, it lived up to expectations. It was an awesome and satisfying build straight from the box. Will there be a third one in the future? Absolutely! I am waiting for someone to come out with a gun bay set, as the engine set isn't far away. It was my first project that I posted to YouTube too, after having a few friends and family urged me to give it a shot. Cockpit green and camo are painted using Kotare Tamiya mixes. No AM was used, all straight from the box. Hope you like it!
  5. Go on and stick me down to receive and give. I will donate a decal bundle (mostly WW2 era) that will be worth around $100-$150.
  6. You won't be disappointed with this kit. I built the Mid boxing a few months back and am currently building the Brian Lane boxing too, just about to sit down and start applying decals. I have posted the first part of the build on YouTube if you are interested. I've gone with a yellow spinner.
  7. I was presuming a B won't be long afterwards.
  8. I asked the same question a week or two ago in the other ICM thread. I've heard nada.. I will be doing Galland Hs123 for sure.
  9. Agreed! I wasn't temped... but now I am. Have you got anything else in the pipeline for this Bo?
  10. Can this rumour be put to bed... as its completely untrue.
  11. As an ex-staff, I doubt that someone is "pumping these things out", considering that decals are produced in Italy, and some sprues are located in a different Asian country.
  12. Is there an update of when there 1/32 Hs 123 is due out? I thought it was Q4 2023? Not much time remaining...
  13. I'm still a novice when it comes to 3D Printing, I have an Anycubic Mono 6K X, while I think this was one of their first machines that had better print times, I still lean toward detail over speed. If a small print is going to take 3-4 hours, I'm happy with that as the results are normally pretty damn good. But yeah I am looking at that machine too, looks fantastic.
