    Oh, sorry, I did not bid in that auction. I was just curious to know at which amount the biddding would finally stop. I am a happy boy owning an AIMS Ju-388 nightfighter conversion by myself, copy no. 7, and a C-6 conversion. But I am glad it sold well. Congratulation!

    Nothing really its a great kit. accuracy wise , the screen is a bit wide , it doesnt have the twist in the tail fin and the props are a bit narrow , but i built mine oob and it looked great. Less od a faff and cheaper than the ZM one.

    @airscale, you certainly know how to put the cat amongst the pigeons Peter. 
    The Finnish connection is possibly a bit of a red herring although a new tool Hurricane makes complete sense. 
    It could be a coincidence but Revell released an early Spitfire in 1/32nd scale, Airfix re-popped their ancient Mk1a. Revell released a Mk IX in 1/32nd scale, Airfix brought us a brand new Mk IX in 1/24th. What have Revell just released in 1/32nd scale? 

     
    Personally I'd like to see them return to a jet. A BAe Hawk in Red Arrows livery seems to be a no brainer. Three different tail options to allow for three individual boxings. There are the all black trainer versions. Special schemes like the all over dark green/dark earth cammo version plus the original Red, white, grey trainer and wrap around green/grey cammo. Weapon options and even a few oversees customers too. (Don't/didn't Finland use the Hawk? ) The skin surface of the jet even allows them to add texturing that they're fond of doing in this scale.
    Or, perhaps a deHavilland Vampire? Plentty of nations used it which garners possible global appeal. Heaps of schemes to choose (Finland again? ) plus they already did a ton of research for their smaller scale releases. 
     
    I'm probably way off the mark but it's fun to cogitate. 
     
    Cheers,

    Not a huge amount to show for nearly 3 hours work . 
    There’s a fair amount of trimming of sprue tabs, on some seriously fine parts. 
    Anyone building every bomb in the kit has my deepest respect. I’ve tired from just doing the 14 I’m hanging off the Lanc’.

    Well i really dont know what to say about this. This is just modelling on another level , its mind blowing. I really love seeing styrene being turned into something that basically looks like a resin detail set!   This really does look like a real miniature H34.
    You Sir are an artist.
