  1. I’m now back on this build, having received some splinter mattresses from Micromaster
  2. Yes, I have 2 tribals to finish then a couple of Vendetta’s in 1944 and 1945 and a big project for the end of the year
  3. Unfortunately it was pointed out to me it had t even made its maiden flight before Langley was sunk ! Somewhat of an accuracy issue!
  4. Pretty much done, I’ll look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow
  5. I’ve now done 99% of the painting and prep; these are the Black Cat replacement guns (the smaller ones are kit provided ones with the PE from Eduard and a replacement barrel. The three types of ships boats are from black cat and there is just no comparison.
  6. I expect I can get Langley pretty much done over the next week or two; but here’s a new photo, the yanks first helicopter ship!
  7. No they were from Northstar in Latvia. These are from Blackcat in France.
  8. They are like brittle wax, about 20 broken in transit, and they are clumped together making it near impossible to remove them. They are very nice just near impossible to get off the fret. I think a different material would be a better outcome for them.
  9. No, they took 3 month to get here are are so brittle they fracture at about 25% each which makes them horrendously expensive
  10. It’s the same photo I’d say just a lot cleaner. As for camouflage I think it’s just shadow
  11. by far the clearest photo i have found of her in February 1942
  12. No mate, that’s a different kit. Kawanishi H8k2 Type 2 flying boat
  13. I must say i agree. I see some parts are soo small that the glue used (even thin glue) would be bigger than the piece itself thus making it pointless. BUT PE is your friend.
