Some pretty impressive stuff there, thanks for posting the photos. Cheers Dennis -
Just had to, but it will be quite a while before I build it, Have to improve my skills a bit first. Cheers Dennis

Slowly but surely coming together. Cheers Dennis -

Nice one John, in fact both of them look great to me, I must try some day to build the Infinity 1/32 version lurking in my stash. An impressive looking (if a bit odd) aircraft. Cheers Dennis

Gosh that takes me back, I think that it will be a tad better than the AMT/ERTL versions that I built way back, it's a shame that they missed the early RAF Bostons in 1/32. Cheers Dennis

Nice one John, I really like the camouflage finish, as to weathering, that is a very personal choice, I tend to do minimal weathering on my aircraft kits as all of them were new one time in their lives. When I used to build AFVs I weathered them a bit more as I used to put them on small bases. But your model, your choice, it is a hobby after all. Cheers Dennis

Sure is, luckily as I do not know that much about Japanese subjects Nick Millman and his Aviation of Japan blog helped me out a lot with the details for the build. Cheers Dennis -
Kotare Spitfire PR IV
Spitfire replied to BlrwestSiR's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
A fascinating conversion and that colour scheme is certainly very different, its very tempting as I do not have a PR Spitfire in the display cabinets. Great progress, keep up the good work (please) Cheers Dennis -
That Dauntless looks good despite the smaller scale, though that might usefull in saving some space in the display cabinet. Cheers Dennis

After a few challenging PCM builds I have settled on a very straightforward Hasegawa build, I really like their no nonsense well engineered approach. And it is really flying along, not literally though. Cheers Dennis -

It sounds just like a cruise we should take, we love cruises but have never cruised the British Isles. Cheers Dennis -
Good thinking, if it serves no structural purpose and will not be seen then why fit it. Cheers Dnnis

Honda RC166 - Tamiya - 1/12
Spitfire replied to DocRob's topic in LSM 1/35 and Larger Work In Progress
Now that is a real beauty of a build, one of my all time favourite bikes, what an incredible machine, and what a noise, and in the hands of my favourite racer Mike Hailwood a real winner. I was lucky enough to see Mike race in the IOM on the Ducati. Cheers Dennis -
That looks to be have been a great show, some fantastic modelling on display. Thank you for taking the time to post them. Cheers Dennis

Having recently built the PCM Fabric wing Hurricane I can thoroughly recommend the Wingleader Photo Archive Number 3, Hawker Hurricane Mk.I in RAF service NW Europe 1935 to the Battle of Britain. It's probably the only reference that you will need for early Hurricanes. Cheers Dennis
