Tolga ULGUR Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 49 minutes ago, Shoggz said: This is my fourth Airfix Spitfire. I can't make my mind up which schemes to do! I know I want two early and two late though. Can't wait to try Peter's extras for the cockpit. I might start the Hurricane too - I need more time! I have got the same kits. I decided to wait for an aftermarket seat to be released to start the Airfix's Spitfire. jeroen_R90S, Martinnfb, Phantom2 and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denders Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 You can't see the depth of the Airfix box, so yes. Tolga ULGUR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alain Yes Alain, it is due to perspective The airfix box is slightly larger than Revell, but quite small for 1/24 scale. Alain Gadbois 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I did wonder why the late version is 129EUR and the early 155 though, the early only has one small sprue extra) Have fun building them!

(I did wonder why the late version is 129EUR and the early 155 though, the early only has one small sprue extra) Have fun building them! Jeroen Thank you, I will! One Hannover is earmarked for a Cl.III conversion. There are some interesting DFW marking options and you can backdate this one into the "Mid" one, parts are all there on the sprues. Also the DFW is not in need of Lozenge decals so one less to run in trouble with large decal sheets. The last of each of the multiple kits will be sold when time has come. I wanted the AEG that much I bought both versions just to get at least one kit. But I've got both and I am glad about this. The early one will be build but I have not decided yet if I build the late version too. Time will tell. Well, I've told my wife that I have to retire next month to find the time to build my WNW kits And she is glad I've got all of them. No fuss about the price tag. She knows what a WNW kit is and how scarce they are nowadays. Best wife of all Regards - dutik jeroen_R90S, europapete and thierry laurent 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
europapete Posted Sunday at 08:34 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:34 PM Yep, Wives are THE BEST! Darlene gave me almost all of my WNW's collection over the years as Bday and Xmas gifts. Dutik, check out KLP publishing, they do a great ebook on building the AEG and Albatros. LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the KLP AEG book is on top of my wish list. Written by none less than our famous Karim Bibi. Had a week ago a peek at KLP home page, it's a must have, indeed. Also useful to build other WNW kits. Alas I am somewhat low of modelling budget at the moment due to my newly grown WNW stash... Not to mention that I've spent my last bucks for a Halberstadt CL.II (the last one before it was sold out) and a few Windsock datafiles. But it is on my wish list for this quarter. Great stuff @LSP_Kevin ! Just selling some other stuff at ebay to earn some fresh modelling money (and to make room in the cabinet too)...
