Every time I read about that smoothly wooden-fuselaged WWI German fighter with the 'V' interplane struts, or the later Czech jet trainer, I hear that in my head, or I even say it out loud, if no one else is about. Regards, Jason

1:18 Scale B-17G Flying Fortress Forward Fuselage
Learstang replied to patricksparks's topic in Works in Progress
Most impressive! I suppose I need to get started on my 1:1 scale Il-2 Shturmovik in resin. Regards, Jason -
You've just given Tom an idea for his next project, after he finishes this one, and the 1/32nd scale Shackleton (actual project - nearly done)! Regards, Jason

Nice job on the Spad! Regard, Jason

Brilliant work on the Yak-3! Despite your problems with it, this is a kit I'd like to get (unless of course, ICM get to it first!). Just as an historical note, Soviet fighters very seldom had the flaps down on the ground. The control surfaces weren't always at neutral, but it does appear that normally the flaps were up. But yours is the exception and there's nothing wrong with that! Beautiful job! Regards, Jason

Excellent job on the Me 262, also one of my favourite aeroplanes! Welcome to the site! Best Regards, Jason

Blimey! That reminds me I need to change the year on my Tu-16 Badger book! Thanks for the unintended reminder, Kev! Best of luck with your publishing this year! Hopefully, I'll have two books published this year - my book on modelling, and my Tu-16 Badger book. Best Regards, Jason -

As I recall, those Yak-1B are resin, aren't they, Dennis? Is the Yak-3 the Special Hobby kit? As you know, I can't get enough GPW Soviet kits. Regards, Jason -

To go a bit off-topic for a moment, is that Falco in your avatar the ICM one? That's one I'm seriously considering buying, as I already have the Gladiator, I-153, I-16, and Yak-9T. All lovely kits. Regards, Jason -

Beautiful work on that interior! I'm sure you'll survive the wilds of Alsace. Regards, Jason -
I agree. A Seafire Mk.XV would be brilliant, in both versions (A-frame hook, and stinger tail). A Seafire Mk.XVII/F.17 would also be brilliant - really one my top favourite two or three Spitfire family variants. It was interesting as it really didn't have a Spitfire equivalent - the nearest would be a bubble-top Mk.XII, I suppose, but none were ever made like this. Regards, Jason

Thank you, Dennis! We definitely need more VVS subjects in 1/32nd scale (if Border Models ruins things by coming out with them in 1/35th scale, I'll probably have a brain embolism!). The Yaks have gotten some love in 1/32nd scale, but it is more than time the Lavochkin fighters were represented in plastic in 1/32nd scale, also. I'm sure the HPH La-7 will look great when finished - as I said in an earlier post, the La-7 was a good-looking aeroplane. One of the most streamlined radial-engined fighters of the war. Best Regards, Jason
