    One can only hope AMP does a 300 boxing of their planned 1/48 TH-55.

     

    Turns out a lot mine have been said already but in no particular order:

    1/48 and 1/32(35) Hughes 500C with high skids

    1/48 and 1/32(35) Bell 206B

    Posted

    Hi all,

    I'm posting this request on behalf of a friend:

     

    Does anyone have a FS # or a hobby paint match for the Interior of the Me 410 at Coford  ? The color pictures in the WWP  "In Detail Special no.1"  It shows it as a bluesih/green definitely not the 02 in the wheelwells. I also seem to recall seeing a similiar color in a He 162 that was being restored by the French company [Memorial Flight] that did the Halberstadt.

    Any and all help will be most appreciated.

    1/72 stores for Skyraider 52673 of 4407 CCTS, 1 SOW

    Hi all,

    A friend has gifted me the Revell boxing of the classic 1/72 AD-5/A-1E Skyraider and I'd like to model 52673 as included in the instructions (the same aircraft is an option in the Matchbiox 1/48 kit).

     

    In the Detail and Scale book it's stated none of the drop tanks are correct, so what do I need to a) replace the kit parts and 2) equip it for a mission? I'd like to use at least some of those chunky, moulded-on pylons!

     

    Thanks in advance!

    Possibly if Kursad (Caracal) also releases his sheet in 1/72 🙂

     

    Did you ever release the 1/72 version?

     

      

     

    Bell 206 Jetranger

    Given AMP's increasing range of helicopter kits I've suggested a JetRanger in various scales to MikroMir, they have shown some interest however they have more pressing concerns right now.

     

    I for one would love 206Bs with high skids in 1/48 and 1/32.

    Italeri 1/72 TB-25J Mitchell - 1980s Australian warbird

    Hi all,
    This Mitchell, 44-86791, was restored in the USA in the early 1980s for an Australian group called Aero Heritage which had been searching for a B-25 to fly as a warbird to acknowledge the type's RAAF service. Ownership later passed to the Australian War Memorial which controversially sold the aircraft to the Yanks Air Museum at Chino, where it remains today.

     

    This is the old Italeri 1/72 Mitchell kit built basically out-of-the box with DK Decals for the RAAF markings, while the distinctive Esso tiger noseart was designed and printed for my by a friend in the UK. Thank you Kit! Unfortunately the antenna above the cockpit was broken and lost while I waited for the tiger decals.

    I'm very pleased with how this turned out and I hope you like it too.
