  1. Just needs a finishing touch. Bird plop! Superb!
  2. never mind, its a good avatar! And these achievements should be shouted about!
  3. A great achievement indeed and to be celebrated, but I think your orbital avatar isnt right though. Alan did a sub orbital hop of 15 minutes compared to Gagarin's lengthier trip, not a full orbit. Gagarin was short of a full orbit by 1500km. Gherman Titov was the first human to orbit Earth. After that the USSR did several more multi orbit missions.
  4. No paint around the join, CA, then liquid glue and then carefully fit the PE strip once set for 24h. Mine held fine and the U/C was fine too. Its BIG with the wings open. Nearly the size of a 1/24 Stuka! Might be easiest do do your painting and then go over the join as last job as its a beast to manoeuvre
  5. I am EXACTLY like you. I always rush the last bit and loath the thing 2 weeks later.
  6. superb! Would the rubber tyres perish/fade too?
  7. Not global warming...Climate change. Its all those 4x4s and gunsmoke what dunnit.
  8. White ensign paints do Russian wheel green. RAF dark earth is close but "its based on tractor paint" after all. In fact I think modern Russian jets traditionally have green wheels now out of a sense of tradition and inverted snobbery.
  9. Try England. In Bradford its Braykfust In Leeds Brekfist. Thats 10 miles apart. Leeds Wukkin, Liverpool Waaairkin (working) 60 miles.
  10. I like a laugh at CNN pronunciation when I am away on trips abroad. Eye Rak Mohwgahdeeshooooo Bohwzneaah Sarrajeeayvoh Moss Cow (moo)
  11. Me too. Fraud last night at 10pm after a small transaction at Hannants last week. Mastercard spotted it.
  12. I think your hypothesis is correct Mark. I have only seen black inside widscreens of restored planes, not the canopy. Same with Spits. Why change colour on a wartime production line? Green is my hunch.
  13. I enjoyed your site and used google translator. Very humorous how google translates some of the language making it seem very melodramatic to western readers. Not a quote, but something like " this fighter was invincible" translates to something like" genius plane destroy all opponent fall from sky" Certainly makes for an exciting read!
  14. Excuse me old chap.. you appear to have spelled humour incorrectly.
  15. Yes its a kick in the chest for the Dutch, Oh hang on the victim of that awful foul was Spanish wasnt he? Should have been 9 vs 12!
  16. I love it! Would you post it over on LSP? The lads would love to see it and there is a WW1 vibe going down at the mo'
  17. Mr Song has fessed up to his latest project. Look at this lovely Napier Sabre! http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.ph...c=29121&hl= http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.ph...29109&st=15
  18. The daily mail is known as a scaremongering right wing hate mag. It just wants to stick the boot into labour. There is a headline generator called the dailymailomatic.
  19. They used the genuine Norwegian 111P as their reference, like the Ju88a1 rather than a4.
  20. What an absolute pleasure this is to have a Trumpeter employee taking account of everyone's opinions of this project. I feel fuzzy and I feel 1/32 has entered a new age. Unless its Keith taking the Micky again with a mocked up 1/48 kit??
  21. Xtracrylix at Hannants have RAF rescue yellow in the range
  22. I got a credit card bill and an offer of a new credit card.
