Holmes said "one way to deal with those blooming Spammers !!" Great bit, and oldie but a goodie and something we all have wanted to do to them. Cheers. Itch

I, like most of my contemporaries, started in 1/72nd and as I got older and vision was not quite as acute I moved to 1/48th. Then about 20 years ago I started 1/32nd, I haven't abandoned 1/48th just branching out a bit. On a lark I built the 1/24th Airfix Hurricane and enjoyed that (may do more in the future). I haen't built anything in about 15 years but plan on getting back into after I retire in 2 years. May even go over to the dark side and build some 1/35th armor. Love the looks of the M-10, Achilles, M18 and armored cars. Cheers , Itch

Another note, depending on how early it was manufactured it may have the main gears doors open on the ground. Itch

ES Don't know the thinking but the Russians used red (and white) stars as far back as WWII. And as you stated probably Socialist victory over the imperialist. Cheers Itch

A-10 effectiveness during Desert Storm
Cajun21 replied to phasephantomphixer's topic in Research Corner
Not necessarily, they dropped on "soft" targets also. Cheers Itch -
Went to both those when I moved into the area with wife 1.0. There was also a Squadron Shop for awhile too, mid 70's time frame. My first hobby shop was Franklin's five and dime where I got some wood aircraft kits and saw my first plastic kit (Starfix I believe) can't remember exact one but it was a bi-plane. Cheers Itch

How did serious modelers handle raised panel lines in those days?
Cajun21 replied to dai phan's topic in General Discussion
I remember the old Jo-Han kits (I believe that was the manufacturer) that had the recessed panel lines which could only be referred to as "trenches". Scaled up they would have been about 6" wide and deep! Jo-Han did mostly cars but they did a few aircraft also. Cheers Itch -
Perhaps a burnt offering to the plastic gods? A paint mule maybe? Cheers Itch
