Hey, saw that! Cool

Nice work John! The Wildcat... A favorite of mine! Love fat, little planes.. I 16, I 153, Gee bee racers, and, of course, Brewster Buffalos! I have the 48th Tamiya and the 32nd Trumpy offerings... Built the Revell 32nd kit in the 80s. Will watch!

It's weird, because I was thinking, as I was looking at the Tamiya 1/35 kit this past week, that a big-scale kit of the subject would be cool...then it happened! Anyway, not sure if I'll get it right away as I have enough kits as it is...but cool! More wheeled subjects please! I really like Copper State Models emphasis on armored cars....especially WW 1 subjects, and I would like to see these in larger scales. I've had little time to devote to building My kits due to health problems and added responsibilities lately, but I do enjoy collecting kits and what I call a "golden age" of large scale kit availability. I hope I can present a finished build soon.

Andy ,of Andy's Hobby Headquarters, has announced A 1/16 M8 Greyhound! Definitely on my list.

Yes, it sure has! I plan to get the big Das Werk 1/16 Puma when it comes out . I've been stalled on my big Sherman build for a week now, but I'll get back to it this weekend.

Ordered from Scalehobbyist this came today; In 1/16 its Trumpeter's T34/76 model 1943 (00903). Scalehobbyist has these for sale at a better price than most online sites that I've seen.

Hey Peter, thought about getting that one myself, I'm sure you'll do a great job!

Nice work Peter!

Where did you get your barrel from?

Very nice!

Got that one in my stash....looks like a great kit!

Looking great Peter!

Looks great!

Nice. I have a couple of Lee kits by Takom including the cast upper hull variant. Like I've said before..a big scale kit, for me, would be great!

I built that one years ago....early 2000s I think. May buy it again. I'd Really like to see one in 1/16. Anyway, great to see your build. Will watch!

I remember, years ago, trying to build the old Monogram kit of this plane...never did finish it. Glad to see your build here...One to watch, you're doing great so far!

They got in stock at Andy's website about a week ago.

Nice haul! I know what you mean about the stash. I see you got a Fisher Cutlas! Where did you find that? I thought Fisher was out of business. That Cutlas was an odd-looking aircraft....cool to see it built.

Today came a big one; From Andy's Hobby Headquarters came his British Achilles M10 IIc Tank Destroyer (AHHQOO7) in 1/16. I'm working on his big Sherman presently.. and believe me, these 1/16 things are big. Anyway, a cooler version of the M10 this thing will be a fun build!

Yes, this'll be cool! Will be watching!

Yes, good stuff!

I subscribe to both..Also Sofilein and The Chieftain.

Is that a T-33 ? Which kit is it?

No! Not at all. The M3s were lovely in their awkwardness. I'd love to see a big 1/16 scale version!....Imagine, all those lovely rivets!....Well, one can only hope. But then,...I'm still waiting..for a big-scale Brewster Buffalo!
