  1. Few photos, chaps. Been a long time waiting... 

     

    My logic in cutting the front end off is to now build the cockpit from scratch and undercarriage bay, then slot that all in once i'm happy. I've cut away more than I need to so once it's all blended in with the clear parts to it, I'll minimise the chances of any dust going in on the main clear parts etc

     

    As I'm building a fire bomber, I've taken out anything I need to and clad it from the inside ready for milliput to flush it off.. any cuts have had superglue on the inside too to make it easier to fill from the exterior also... floor and main bulkhead is cut, so a bit of fettling to get it to fit then i'll work on the undercarriage bay walls... more photos soon.

     

     

    Hope you like!

  2. Decided to get this back out... stuck in the house as i've had to furlough myself. Been stuck in now for 3 weeks and done some jobs around the house (not as many as the Mrs would like though...) and now time for some modelling, was toying with getting the 1/24th Buccaneer out, but i'm so much fonder of the Tracker and fire bombers... 

     

    Will get some updates up later on today, as progress has been made already today! :)

    My guess is that HpH will go the Special Hobby route, and do short-run injection-moulded kits with resin and multi-media detail parts, so the need for aftermarket should be substantially reduced (in theory).

    Would be very happy with that...

    There's also a UBS double seater among the slovak MiGs, but it's not flying anymore. 1024px-MiG-29UBS_Slovakia_(24025820380).

    And yes, all the single seaters were A version originaly.

    That's a real shame it's not flying now? :( I caught her in Belgium a couple of years ago.. Would love to build it.

  5. I've had a bit of a mad year already this year (and making the most of my busy period within work..), having sold off a lot of my stash a year ago and having sold off some kits I probably won't be able to replace (they were quite rare), so I've just bought some stuff that I have a big interest in... unusual, German and Russian/Soviet types. This is it now for a long time...  Only 1 LSP though, the He-219... but what a lovely kit.

    Needless to say, I don't need to buy anything else for a while!! But it's filled a rather large gap from previous kits... and i'm happy.

  6. Not usually one to pick up errors but it has been said before.. now we've got clearer photos it' quite obvious. The curve on the top of the fuselage, too round... still I will get one.. 

     

    Could try and square it off, and have the front canopy open to save correcting the clear parts, then not to sure what to do with the back clear parts though...
