Wheels can’t be as bad as the ones that come with the old ESCI GR1

First one to build as the Red Devil’s version? Bet it’s a tail sitter photo linked to planespotters.net

Not seen a Kitty Hawk Jag build go smoothly yet but not tried it. The Airfix / Revell Jag is a bit basic, but not quite as basic as the Harrier GR3. Nice twin Jag build on Brit Modeller at the moment with lots of extra detail being added. Just starting a Revell Tornado ADV at the moment so looking for any build tips.

That’s very true @Eri - any one put together a gallery of Mr Shammas’s work? There are various photos and web postings out there but I can’t find a single place to enjoy his work together. I was a fan of his long before I found that he had posted on this forum.

Thank @Charlie D. yes 1/48 Esci/ERTL - think that became the Monogram kits too. Just changed the decals to do a Lakenheath F-4. Have a Italeri RF-4C to do some time soon - going for an Alconbury bird then. Not sure wether to go for SEA camo or Euro Ond This is is the real version of the F-4D

I like your engineering hangar Philippe. I have ride to do something similar when I saw the following picture on a webpage I actually wondered if it was a model. It is not - it is the adutch airforce engineering facility at Hoofdorp. So I wondered if it could be made in to a model. My attempt is not really complete. Needs more details and lighting I even vent have a Dutch F-16 to pose in it.

Sounds like kids hanging around outside a library trying to mooch free WiFi. Sub full of Russians going ‘do think we can get signal on our phones if we hang around by these cables?’

Cheers @Joel_W been on other forum but new on here

Thanks guy for the kind comments. Just picked up an RF-4C kit so looks like an Alconbury phantom will be joining them soon

Found these but don’t fancy us shipping https://www.farmtoysandmore.com/prestashop/341-148-scale-trucks

I need some more trolleys and things around - liquid oxygen cart, weapons carts etc - to me they bring the scene to life. Could do with a 1/48 Chevy step van - Hasegawa do one in 1/72

Sometimes even put leds in the aircraft

Made mine light up!

There is a real lack of 1/48 airfield vehicles, for USAF, RAF or anyone else. Did I see a skunkworks tanker on your build thread? I would really like an AEC Mamouth tanker but I will have to build my own

First post of a build on here, usually found over on Britmodeller so apologies if you have seen this one before. It an old ERTL kit, pretty much out of the box but with aftermarket decals as I wanted either Lakenheath or Woodbridge. Posed with a diorama And with some her RAF cousins
