Living up to the hype so far. Zero fit issues as long as you verify locator pins, etc. i found one main gear wall was miss numbered left to right, but anyone with 1/3 of a working human brain will figure it out in 15 seconds.

For me, I see a short trip to Bethlam in those :-/

Gorgeous build and superb photography! Nice!

Now get with it, airman!

Start building and don’t stop till you’re done.

Jeroen, I absolutely love, love, love this build. One of my favorite aircraft of all time! So, here’s how I see this: Cees did a scratched O/400, now WNW is bringing us one I’m doing a resin P-51B, now we’re getting one from ZM Youre doing this 1/48 Welly......... any takers?

Harv, I think it’s a great idea, IF you can pull it off in time. Except for the 2 seat conversion, a straight OOB build would be very doable. I’m not sure I’d be leaving panels off though, as that adds time and complexity. Build it buttoned up except for the open pit and you’ll make it. Just don’t chase squirrels on this, and you’ll need to start this RIGHT NOW. Good luck man, Seriously.

Regarding helicopters. I saw a blinding light one time, thought I had an aneurism. Went to the Doc, he said it was stress and have me pills. The side effect of which was an uncontrollable urge to build helos. Then, three weeks later I fell and hit my head. Wouldn’t you know it but the urge was gone.

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Now that's some seriously awesome news. I knew as soon as got cracking on the Rutman kit, ZM would announce one.

Very, very nice! Love it. I never even knew they made this kit. :-/

Yessssssssss!

Checks in the mail, Martin.

I do but it takes awhile.

Happy Thanksgiving from the great State of Texas, y’all!

My fastest build time wise was a KittyHawk T-28B that I built straight OOB other than belts. I did it in 6 days. Then a Tamiya A6M2 I knocked out in 3 weeks. Tamiya P-51D in a month. Hasegawa 109F in a month or so. I’ve gotta be an odd duck. This’ll sound crazy, but I find Tamiya kits boring. They’re perfect. I got half through my Birdcage and placed it on the SOD. Resin’s more my game, but too much of that fries the brain as well.

The list is getting a bit longer. woohoo!

I agree. My use of hyperbole can be and often is,.. extreme-ish. But my point remains, given the number of experten out there, plus the number of wholly original or just softly restored examples out there, there are no reasons to miss on this just do the legwork. As for LW subjects, I don’t understand the hostility. 109s or 190s always bring out the haters, andyet, as was mentioned before, especially in 109s, they’re all different.

Truly a stunning exhibition of artistic excellence!

Me three. I’ll buy at least 2 or 3 sets myself

‘Arry Tate’s back!

To me a quick build is 24 hours on the bench, completely OOB except maybe for belts an decals. That oftentimes can mean a couple weeks to a month for me, depending on free time, of which I have very little. The F-5 is a recharger of the batteries for me. I was getting a bit burned out. Some can build quicker, not me.

Nyet! It was done by the proletariat as a service that will benefit the collective.
