Read a story (No idea where now) That a particular pilot would make his right seater kneel in the seat and look out the back for sneaky Huns all the way back from a mission. These were still vulnerable to getting bounced if they allowed it. So one set of eyes forward, the other watching their 6. All the way home.

Should have said just like models of real vehicles.

They are pretty nice. I built a few Of the Fine Molds also. They were nice kits too. Funny thing, to me anyway, is that Fine Molds and Bandai disagree on the size of these various Studio scale models they referenced. Just like models of real objects.

1/72 Eduard P-51D-10 from the 8th AF twin pack, which allows you to build a D-5 and a D-10 And a 1/72 Bandai Tie Advanced. And not visible in the back somewhere the 1/48 Eduard P-39 Wood grain for the mustang floor, waiting for it to dry before I add the black tar overcoat. And the chiclet sized life raft pack for the seat back. If thats what that is. Idk, but Eduard doesn't give you one, unless you but a printed seat. I can make my own. Epoxy putty. waiting for the little white buttons.

The Eduard baby 109's are addictive little kits. if you can see them. I have a few tips if you are interested.

I liked this kit so much, I bought a second one.

I get it. I'm just saying I appreciate all size scale models. And more models to look at would be better. Whatever the reason, we have less showing up. It seems to me. Based on my completely seat of the pants scientific measurements.

It is, more or less. This is the only forum I post at, and I build all different scales. Frankly I don't see a lot of traffic here anymore so it seems like posting anything model related should be welcome. Just my thoughts.

I do 1/72. I posted one here for inspection. Working on an Eduard P-51 right now.

Also looks like the wing walk safety line has been painted over. I always assumed this, it would be a pain in the ass to mask it off. And I doubt that they would bother to paint it on again over a temporary finish. That alone should be reason enough to go white. Not have to deal with that pain in the ass. Interestingly, some of the stenciling is visible. Partial Werk number on the tail and the lift point aft of the fuselage cross.

I have had some luck with asking Google for a specific airframe, either work number or modex. FW 190 A-4 <II didn't come up, kinda thought it might not without an actual number, but I did get this rather nice image of one of her sisters. As predicted, kinda scruffy. And someone has poorly photoshopped the swastika out.

I'd go with <II . Winter white wash never stayed that pretty, or white for that matter, long And it's a Green Hearts bird.

Last, but not least a Natter. Cause, why not? 1/48

1/25 weird cool beach cars
