I don't 'officially' have it yet - it's my birthday prezzie for late May - so being hidden so that I can have a 'surprise' OMG ok yeah this one gets me!!! i managed to get my hands on the original boxing with resin brass cannon (was a surprise in the box second hand FTW) then obviously this one came out! I'm probably gonna build 2 ! Iain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Back from Euro Model Expo 2023 I've added some more winged things to the stash: Modellbau König from Germany was there (as always - he is a sponsor of the event). Surprise: A collection of sold-out WNW kits with mangled boxes Owning most of the other kits I added two Snipes and a Camel to my collection. If you can read the price tag - only 75 bucks (Euro) each. The contents are fine, nothing damaged inside the boxes. Fokker and Fighter were regular buys a few days ago. Some HGW sets for some of the kits and new blades for the resin saw. Below are a Fiat CR.42 (and a set of resin wheels on top) and a long sold out V2 on Meillerwagen. It's just for the trailer - I've got a Rheinbote conversion to replace the fat V2 with something much sleeker.

denders Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 (edited) Well, I have one of those decade numbered birthdays coming up and for the last few the wife says we need to go somewhere that I would like which usually includes something about airplanes. 10 year ago it was Pensacola. This year we went to Tuscon and the Pima Air and Space museum. And something purchased there. It turns out that there was an airshow at Davis Montham this weekend, so I also got to watch some of the arrivals and the Thunderbirds practice on Thursday. They also have a Tarhe and since the new kit is arriving, I took quite a few photos. I don't know the procedure for submitting a walkaround to post them. I took a bunch of other photos at the museum, so ask if you're looking for something specific. I didn't do a walkaround of every plane though. Saturday we drove up to Phoenix for some Cactus League Baseball, but stopped at a well known hobby shop, wish we had one like it here in the Nashville area. I bought a couple of items plus some Tamiya paint. And of course, when we returned home the Kotare' Spitfire was here waiting. So, after 3,735+ miles, watching terrain change and beautiful scenery as well as some National Park visitations, it's time to get back to modeling.

Martinnfb Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 So I missed out on the first order of the Kotare Spitfire and William was incredibly thoughtful and ordered one extra for me. Thank you my friend. What a treat Archimedes, Out2gtcha, Shoggz and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 I'll be interesting in your impressions of the Cain kit, Carl. I have their ED-209 kit, and while I haven't built it, it certainly looks excellent in the box. Kev LSP_K2, Martinnfb and BloorwestSiR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've included the option for the head to be open so you can display Cain's monitor and there are decals/stickers to match. Some of the joints are preassembled and are indexed so they should hold their position. One letdown is the Minigun. It's moulded in two halves and the barrel ends are solid. Being fairly prominent, it's too bad it wasn't done in more parts for better detail. I'm happy to have it and hopefully will get to it soon. My big sci-fi project this year will be the Max Factory Strike Valkyrie. Martinnfb, Uncarina and LSP_Kevin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
