HubertB Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Looks like the SH Westland Whirlwind (the one with wings, not an egg-beater above) is (at last ) announced for this spring (and in case you are wondering, yes I have already spotted a civilian scheme for it ) Hubert 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 The Minibase Su-33 is almost ready for release. There's a test build up on The Modelling News that looks stunning. I'm really tempted by this kit since I doubt we'll see an Su-33 in 1/32. https://www.themodellingnews.com/2021/01/test-kit-dry-fit-review-48th-scale.html?m=1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaS Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Looks Like Italeri want to sell more versions of the Tornado? https://issuu.com/italeri/docs/previw_italeri_2021/8 Honestly... I don't know a lot about modern jets. So, I can;t just go buy any old Tornado and chop it up to make the version I want. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would fit easily on the swimming pool ! Anyway, water was more the element of the original than air, wasn’t it ? One could even argue that the Do-X was the forerunner of the Ekranoplan ...

BlrwestSiR Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Jetmads wants to know what should they work on next. They've posted that after the Lear and X-3, they're doing a 1/48 kit and have three in mind. The options are B-47, P2V and a Tu-128. I think I know what @Clunkmeister will be voting for since it'll look perfect next to his B-36... Carl 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
