ICMs CR.42 Falco is an excellent kit right out of the box. Any boxing. Also ICMs I-153 and I-16 kits. Regards - dutik

Gotha P60? Here: Regards - dutik

BTW, if someone is serious about building a SR-71 and willing to pay the price tag for the huge 3D print - drop @Serkan Sen a PM and ask him to print a copy for you. Regards - dutik

Trumpeter is obviously no longer in the the business of announcing vaporware, so smaller companies took over... Regards - dutik

Found this at Scalemates. 3D printed kit. No real photos or images so far, but the instructions are very detailled and look well researched. 25 parts with the option of controls for the rear cockpit. Marking options for Brazil, Bolivia, Chile and US aircraft. No homepage given, just an email adress: fadulmodels@yahoo.com No connection to the vendor. Regards - dutik

Great power pack! Regards - dutik

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Ist this a light grey or a silver dope? Especially like the shading of the ribs and the red of the tail. And the rigging. The cockpit. Anything else. What for are the cutouts behind the observers cockpit? Regards - dutik

Well, let's take this as another reminder to buy the kit(s) you want in time, as long as available Kits go OOP, manufacturers close down, but your stash is yours for lifetime. Regards - dutik

This is something very special Nice build! Regards - dutik

I guess I am a bit over the time. Can we move this thread into the "Work in progress" section? Thanks! - dutik

Excellent finish! Lifelike! Regards - dutik

So I am a wise man: Bought my HPH Me-410 just 2 months ago Regards - dutik

Come on: They are talking about website maintenance. That's not the end of the world, err, HPH. The shop is just temporarly unavailable. Even the LSP forum has an update then and when and is offline for some time. Business as usual. Regards - dutik

Glad to know nobody got hurt except you ass back and you ego Didn't want to sound rude, so I am happy you got my comment right. I have been in the arty/antitank branch (you know, these mythical guys who saved Moscow back in WW2) and had my share of accidents and near misses too. The good thing is than an antitank gun ist large enough to point always in only one direction and too heavy to got accidentally swung around. Best story was a live firing at the range when the gunlayer pulled the trigger and nothing happened. The gunners unloaded the round and disassembled the breech, discovering that the trigger bolt was lacking. By the Lord, where is the trigger bolt? How did we loose it? No, no, the assistant gunner called, grabbing into his waist pocket, showing us the trigger bolt, it is here in my pocket, to keep it clean Worst story was the jammed MG of a rookie, who decided to unjam it during a rest between all the other people... We were lucky. Nobody got hurt, the accident was by the brass swept under the carpet and we were cleared to provide him with a well-deserved code red. I've carried the bullet that hit a tree next to my head during my whole service time with me. Better the bullet with your name written over it is in your pocket than elsewhere... Regards - dutik

Nice, nice, nice, nice! ... Well, this must be a suicidal technican, working at gunpoint in front of a loaded MG. Many modellers have served in armed forces, and we have all learned: Once per year also a broomstick is shooting. Sometimes you learn this the hard way, sometimes by a kick from the gunnery sergeant... Regards - dutik

Well, a DFW Flea is a high wing aircraft too. Sort of. It is a biplane, but the upper wing is fixed to the top of the unusually high fuselage. Regards - dutik

Small scales have a myriad more kit options. That's for true. But a high wing LSP sounds good, indeed. Regards - dutik

BTW, our own @Girlscanplay2 was building LSP models too. And she owns a gun. A real rifle, a M14. Fullbore! Regards - dutik

Chloe Plattners work: 1/72 scale, fully scratchbuild, also the book. Regards - dutik

Please, may I ask you to explain what is this "woman" thing? And what are "females"? I am a modeller, I have no social skills... Regards - dutik

Not mentioned before: F-14 F-15 EF-128 Ho-IX (well, without a fuselage may be in any position...) PZL Wilga RQ-7 Arado-234 Do-27 Ta-154 He-219 Mig-27 So we are looking for a high-wing GB? Nice idea... Regards - dutik

Happy Birthday!!! Regards - dutik

Thanks! Head-ups are always very welcome They keep projects going on. Regards - dutik

Very nice build and a fabulous display! Regards - dutik

Added the above mentioned details. Still waiting for the replacement venturi tube. Time to add a layer of primer to check the surfaces and the seams. Regards - dutik
