    Funnily enough I have been thinking of building something lately instead of figures for a change, will follow your build with interest Ralph :)

    No doubt I'll be back to them when I've finished this.
    As for the lemon it's for us Limeys that don't want to get scurvy:p.

    Oh no you have gone to the dark side :ROFLMAO:

    I got a stack of Wingnut kits here I keep looking at, I open the box, look at the parts and the lid goes back on again

    Nice to have the occasional change

    Good to flip the dials every once in a while....Change the station. I've been sitting on a 1/4 scale Testors Visible Hemi I've been thinking about building for 3yrs now. When I was a kid I built 80 models (no joke) and they all disappeared by way of bb gun or firecracker. And now I'm just a much more mature kid that doesn't shoot or blow up his models.:)

    Arrived in the Ninian Field about 20 minutes ago, my 1/48 MiG-21 will be out of the box tomorrow I think.

    Nice preshading Ralph, does no harm to practice the different disciplines of afv or other modelling genres, been trying to build a decent Spitfire amongst the figure building. All good stuff :)

    I nearly went to the dark side with the individual track links:censored:.
    I always liked the look of the Wingnut Wings kits but never bought one,I do have a Tamiya 1/32 Spitfire that I will have to do one day.
    All the best to you.

    Always good to do something different.
    I have all the fun of weathering it now.
    It must be a bit uncomfortable sitting on a model kit for 3 years:ROFLMAO:.

    I think I have one of those in the stash.

    I just had to go and have a look I don't have a mig21 but I do have the Trumpeter Mig23.
    Also an Eduard SU22 and BF110 among others.

    It's an Eduard kit I have. I quite like the look of the Su-22 myself but I need to ease off buying them faster than they are built.

    I got a 1/48th Airfix P51 Mustang to build for our model club group build, there are 15 of us building the same kit. Who knows how mine will end up, I am not very good with plastic and glue and my painting leaves a lot to be desired, but will be good fun.
