I can't tell if that is a good or bad shock, Blohm. :ha:

I'll never miss a blitz.

I am in but no idea what day or what subject.

Maybe a car kit... got the Mystery Machine and Herbie to build but need decals for both, stickers, shudder.

Maybe I will do a resin kit. Never done one before, what could go wrong?

Joey-shock can never be bad shock :-D

Good to see that Sissel will be here to add to the quality food and alcohol.......and build something of course.

I think I've settled on the Revell Polykarpov I-16 in Spanish Republican guise. Biggles build, of course ;-)
Must.....build....ALL the Sopwith Camels!...

The Blitzing time is getting nearer and nearer.

I am looking at either the F-86D or F-84F, both Airfix for my Blitz. Many both if I can lock down the time.

Bare metal. Oh the humanity.

Just one more day!

And time for music, of course:

Does my opened but still unstarted Airfix Hawker Hunter FGa9 qualify? As can be seen from my workbench thread here: http://uamf.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=5984&start=15 I have taken some parts off the sprue to check fit but it all went back in the box in pieces. Now that Chuck E has kindly sent me the missing rocket pods I feel morally obligated to build it & the Blitz provides the right incentive.
