That’s right …. and Revell did a rebox of it. I forgot about those. Kinda junky if I remember.

As the counting of the number shall be three…… 1/32 Seafire FR-46/47 1/32 Spitfire F-22/24 1/32 Wyvern

I’d rather have a slightly off-centered zipper than a yawning cavern ;-)

I think I’ll try the Aires Hasegawa set. I’m sure I could add some shaped card stock to make up the gap. Thanks for the tip about the Aires resin!

Splatman…. I would certainly be in for a set! I did find an old thread here where this has been quite an issue. If I can’t find something then I might have to crack out the Milliput!

So I get the Dragon Bf-109E kit only to find that the “resin” wheel bays supplied in the kit have all but crumbled to dust; completely un-repairable. Anyone have any idea how to go about rectifying this? Any aftermarket options? Anyone else have this problem?

Great info… thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I realize that there is the engine difference (I think BI made in UK with Rolls Royce and BIII made in Canada with Packards) but I was trying to figure out if Phantom of the Ruhr was a BI or BIII as I’ve seen it labeled as both.

Hi everyone…. Looking for some Lancaster info. I have the Border Models 1/32 BI/BIII kit and I’m figuring which plane to model. “Phantom of the Ruhr” keeps jumping out at me but I keep finding conflicting information as to whether it was a BI or BIII. Does any one out there have some good info on this plane? Thanks!

I have been using MRP for virtually all my airbrush work (great stuff if you don’t mind the smell). For detail painting small areas with a brush I had been using Humbrol enamels as they cover well and level off nicely. However, my supplies are dwindling and some of the paint is really old ….. like 20 years! I need to start replenishing my stock but not sure what would be a good replacement. Any recommendations?

I use Bondic UV curing glue. It seems to have a very slight magnifying effect that makes the dials pop out but not unrealistically.

As yet, I don’t know which aircraft I’ll be doing as I’m still getting my info together. Thanks for the book recommendations though, it’s really helpful.

Excellent guys … thanks for the info!

I’m about to dive into the Border Models 1/32 Lancaster and I am getting all the extras together for the build. What I am missing though are some good reference books on the Lancaster. I can’t buy a whole library on the Lancaster but two or three books with lots of photos would be ideal. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Does anyone know what happened to the 1/32 HpH Wyvern that they were developing? They seemed to be quite a way along in the project,
