  1. Very nice ! Well done ! Btw, you posted this in the wrong sub-forum. Hubert
  2. Sorry, I know zilch about both kits, but I can already tell you that the Dragon kit is the « wrong » scale … Hubert
  3. Hi Tim, These kits were OOP (and hard to find as second-hand - the last eBay auction of a Bulldog I saw went for USD 268), and are being reissued because of customers’ demand like mine. The asked price is a great deal, considering what I saw. And it’s a one-off production run, made-to-order. HTH Hubert
  4. Beautiful detail work, Gary. And the great tip of clear nail varnish is duly filed in my memory 👍 Hubert
  5. My friend Martin Field, who mastered for me a 1/32 Dragon Rapide kit - which I passed to release for a number of other life reasons - was working a few years ago on the master for a large scale (I think I remember 1/6, but may be wrong on this one) Vincent. If the person who commissioned Martin was more diligent than me, then this kit must be available somewhere. Btw, sadly, I learned that Martin died of cancer a few days ago. Hubert
  6. I mentioned it in another post in the « Buy, sell, swap » section of the forum, but SW have decided to re-release, on a limited basis, a number of their discontinued kits. The production run is based on firm (i.e. pre-paid) orders from the customers, so will match the actual numbers of customers for each. The deadline for receiving these orders is September 10th, so there are only three days left for you to act if you want one of those. The list of reissued kits is : · 1/32 Bristol Bulldog Mk IIA · 1/32 Hawker Hart · 1/32 A. W. Siskin IIIA · 1/32 Fairey Flycatcher · 1/32 Heinkel He-51 · 1/32 Heinkel He-51 B2 Needles to say I was elated to see Silver Wings listen to pleas of their customers (including mine) and come back with this offer. Hubert
  7. Like Bill said … Hubert
  8. Pity about the canopy, but it’s good to read a solution is on its way. The result is already outstanding as it is ! Hubert
  9. You’re definitely our scratchbuild master, Rich 👍 ! Hubert
  10. Hey Gary, I don’t want to (well in fact, maybe a little ), but it seems Zoukei-Mura got the underbelly shape right on their future 109 … Oh well, by the time it’s released, your scars from this one will have healed … Great work and admirable persistence Hubert
  11. ... me, I'll have a go with my brain ( hmmm ... what's more valuable and useful between my brain and a kidney 🤔 ?) Hubert
  12. Is it done yet ? Hang on …. YES IT’S DONE ! 🍾 🍻 🥂 🌟 ! Congrats for a stunning build and oustanding result 🏆 🥇 🎖️ Hubert
  13. Here it is. http://shop.hphmodels.cz/en/accessories/33-specialni-dvouslozkove-epoxydove-lepidlo.html HTH Hubert
  14. Yes, I bought mine (some time ago, admittedly) from HPH’s e-store. HTH Hubert
  15. AFAIK, the best glue for resin is HPH’s two-components epoxy glue. Hubert
  16. The preorders for the second batch of the Viggen, and the Learjet have just opened ! I placed mine for the Learjet . Delivery advertised as February 2022. Hubert
  17. Thnak you very much for the pics, Carl ! Some very cool ones here ! Hubert
  18. Well deserved award ! Fantastic ! Hubert
  19. So, I’m back home ! Is it done yet ? Hubert the relentful 🥷
  20. Kai, I’ll be back home on thursday evening. Now your goal is set, my friend ! Hubert (🦆 )
  21. Soo … it’s not done yet ? Hubert, in the Bordeaux area, substituting popcorn by foie gras, duck confit and red wine …
  22. In which case they are in the same ballpark as a Tamiya Phantom with all the bells and whistles to make it an up-to-date 1/32 replica. Hubert
  23. Seeing one build thread out of 500 produced sounds about right. I skipped the Viggen, but got myself registered on the preorder list for the Learjet and Skyrocket Hubert
  24. And you forget all the new products coming from Central and Eastern Europe … Can you imagine Roden just announced the release of an icon among the icons, a Greyhound bus ? Hubert
