Well, when I thought my year was made with the Lukgraph J2F-5 and the release of the Draken by Jetmads, it seems there will be more to the attack on my wallet …
Technikit have announced they will release a 3D-printed 1/32 Mirage IV !

I haven't been to the LHS since Boxing Day so popped by this afternoon. Picked up a couple books I'd bought for Martin and then saw they had Alclad on sale. Any bottle, $1 each. So I picked up a couple...
I also picked up strip styrene for my GT40.
If this is what your religion calls « a couple » …
Well, as long as Sue agrees …🥴

Now I have a bit of space on the bench. We'll see how long before it fills up.
Assuming it’ s empty to begin with 🤔 … 5 minutes ?

Now, who is going to model the Border 1/32 Lancaster with engine visible and the flowery apron to cover it ?

I went to my local kit collector show, fully intending to spend no money... Unless an emergency presented itself.
Now, THAT looked like a verious serious emergency 😉 !

Funny you went for more flexible resin for the slats. I went the opposite fir the slats of my Cutlass, with a rigid resin. The reason is that the ones I printed a few weeks ago warped badly and took a banana shape 🙁 …
Hopefully my slats will stay straight, as I will be gluing them shortly.
Looking forward to see the painting start.

You did not recognise George Bush, Martin ? The likelihood is - well, almost - there nevertheless 😳 !

Lovely Thunderjet, Kevin. Makes me want to pull my 1/32 kit up the « stash-decrease » (who am I fooling 🙄 ?) list.

If you’re into large scale iconic cars, I have seen that Italeri just released a 1/12 Bugatti 35 B.
The only difficulty will to reproduce the corked aluminium look of the engine block, a staple feature of the Bugatti engines 😉 …

And my new squirrel (distraction)….
This thing is light years away from when I was flying back in 1999. It’s a damned computer now.
It’s amazing that this flies at all, without wings and engine 😲 ! As you say, technological progress is beyond the understanding of us, old men …😉

Too bad about the bonnet fit when hinged … But she is still a spectacular beauty, and your workmanship shows throughout …
You should really be proud about it, Rob, despite this last fight she put up for you 👍

ZM is going to release a two seater? I have the -A in stash and plan to build it soon, but am more interested into the two seater. Anyway, if I´m building both, I would go for wood and metal finish with the -A.
Cheers RobThe answer to that is definitely "yes". I read ZM are working on a "true" -B version, based on period drawings, and designed by Radu Brinzan, which in itself is a sign of great accuracy - in as far as being acuurate is a relevant term for a paper aircraft -. The -B version will have a totally different "nose", with revised intakes, etc.

Which one? ZM or Takom is more accurate? I was never going to buy the ZM add on. I don't trust thin resin castings. I've seen that go south too many times.
The forthcoming ZM « B », designed by Radu Brinzan …

I know these are 3d printed. Are the resin or some form of plastic?
You have a lot of different resins used for 3D-printing. Some are said to be « ABS-like », although they are most likely not ABS. CERTAINLY NOT polystyrene anyway. You must use CA or epoxy to assemble them.
