Words fail me...

I have a question for you. Can you tell me a little bit about your Wellington minesweeper? We recently had a Wellington group build on the old forum and I was originally going to attempt the MS but because of the lack of photos I bailed on the project. I would love to know how you built your nose, the ring and all the ring attaching points.

Woooooow that is one hell of a collection, I bet you are glad you didn’t start in 1/32 scale.

What is the story behind the black and white stripped Hurricane?

Hi to all

It is really nice to be here in this new home.
Very impressive!!! James Storrer Yak-9 very beautiful...
Many thanks. It is one of my favourite models. I made it. :grin:
Here you will find our background on this aircraft.
http://vvs.hobbyvista.com/Research/Yako ... /index.php;
When was finished first kit?
My father started in this hobby in his childhood (all the ones which appears in the "rebuild" module).
I could say that on 2001 my father started to build the models with the actual standard.
And why in your collection only british aircraft and other aircraft with british markings?
Our aim is to model all the aircraft types that flew with the Royal Air Force, the Fleet Air Arm, BOAC and all the Commonwealth in the time frame between 1936 and 1947, in all major versions. And to include also Lend-Lease and captured enemy types.

That it is why we make "series" of each aircraft.
Can you tell me a little bit about your Wellington minesweeper?
Of course. Please send me a PM with your email address and I will send you the information I have as regards the Wellington minesweeper. I have an article and a couple of photos from differents books. My father made all the pieces from scratch.
What is the story behind the black and white stripped Hurricane?
That Hurricane was called DODO. Send me a PM and I will send you two short but good articles as regards this Hurricane.
As cool as ever Santiago but I can't help thinking you need more Spitfires!
Totally agree. We have at least 10 more Spitfire to add :grin:

Many thanks Narayan. I am working on the Westland Lysander project which I belive will be of aprox. 25 models.

Kind regards
Santiago

We have started to revise the kits that we have for our next project (Westland Lysander). We have 13 kits, 3 more kits are comming and we will need at least 10 more.

I do not have the final list but I cannot reduce the numbers of Lysanders selected (at least 30).
