Hi, Assembled the fuselage and wings, fitting is not to bad and heavily weighted the nose... later..

Gang, While waiting for the decal (Should be here anytime now), I painted the kit's seats.. final assy soon...

Airfixers... My Saladin is done, OOB, it was a quite en easy build, and I will add figure when I find a suitable one later... marking from kit, for Saladin service in Borneo/Malaya Now, Moving on to the Spitfire PR XIX, PS888, marking for Ops Firedog, Malaya

Guys, thanks for the comments, and my Saladin is painted..next decal and weathering.. Airfixfan, Yes, I would like to add a crew if I can find the suitable figure, and maybe a small vignette later, let's see...

Hi, There are 3-4 shops in WanNian building 4th floor in XiMenDing, , lot's of choice and good price expecially the AFV club's kit硕... you'll love it there.

hi, Started the Saladin Mk2, this thingy is fun to build, and half a day later.... more progress soon...

Hi, These will be my Airfix build, i will Start Spitfire over the Recce GB and Saladin here...

Hi, Finally started the build, assemble the wing, and fitting is good for a Kitech kit, also attached the windows to the fuselage. painting IP in progress...more to come.

nice progress so far..I will be building the same kit in near future, will be following your build...

Benner, yah the instruction will be helpful, thanks again, and one more request, I dryfited the main gear door and wasn't sure what is the best way of assemble it, and italeri instruction was not clear, from you experience, can you show me a photo of your old build on that area, much appreciate it..

Thanks piere... And Painting mostly done... Next, decaling, I wanted a ALARM shooting bird, and apparently the Donna Ewin decal I have is not suitable, And Benner generously responded with Amanda Jane decal.... Thank you Benner...and work will continue as soon as Amanda reach me, maybe in a week time... Later, gang..

I'll be building 2 Airfix, 1) 1/76 Saladin Mk2 (AFV) 2) 1/72 Spitfire PR XIX (also for Recce GB)

I will build 1/72 AIrfix Spitfire PR XIX

wow...with so many aftermarket stuffs, this should be good.. looking forward for your build...

gang.. Preshaded...and also painted some camo colors on the leading edge.. and tesing my own mixed of desert pink..gunze flesh + sandy yellow and a bit or red..

Hi, This will be my entry, Canadian manufactured, the kit is 1/72 Kitech AKA Zhengdefu copy of the Hobbycraft Caribou, hey they even have Hobbycraft name on the sprue.. but the decal is totally sucks, not useable.. I gonna build it with Malaysian marking, I would need help on the decal, should anyone have the Hobbycraft Tutor Malaysian Decal for spare, please let me know, I would happy to use it for this build...TIA.. Will start building soon...

Oh my, Donna Ewin and ALARM don't match... I don't have TIALD and LGB on hand, either I look for other decals or use the fictitious loading..I'll see what is best..

Hi, Received the decals and Alarms from my friend Mr B AKA "Santa" on the Christmas eve..thank you Mr B...and the marking gonna be Donna Ewin after all.. I also extended the tail of the Boz.. and I just future coated the clear parts, looking forward to paint it after Christmas Break. Wish you all Merry Christmas and happy new year...

B, No worry, parts sent today...Merry Christmas to you..

B, IM me your new address...

Nice pair B,, for the Skyshadow pod, I have extra one from the italeri kit, let me know if you need it...

Benner, youre right about the cut, maybe too late to repair it, should have done a batter job earlier.. Anyway, assembled the fuselage, the fitting on the shoulders and intakes are bad, there's a putty party going on down there...sanding...putty..sanding..

Bro Musang...cantik lah.. looking forward for this...

Cheers gang..and ixgr1, thanks for your kind words.. More work done... I wanted to have some "Dirty" nose art on my Tornado, so I have the gun drilled out, the old airfix Bomb will provide the required vents... and the result is ....I think it is oversize .. but nevermind.. the IPs installed in place.. and the cockpit assembled.. there are some seams line to fight... more later..

My appreciation for all the Tornado gurus for your inputs, I will put your input to my considaration and add according per my skill limit... Musang, apa lagi, build the ADV lah, with all the gurus here, you can't go wrong..:D and after talking to Mr B, the HB kit fit like a dream, I think that will be the batter kit to build instead.. and a little progress on the cockpit, I usually prefer darker IPs, but the instruction said 36375, so I paint it with Gunze 308..with various black and white dots..
