Photos here. First off is the Seafire 46/47, she is not straight from the kit though. The markings have come from an Aeromaster sheet and the canopy is a Vac form one:

Secondly is the 1:48th Hurricane. Again the markings are from an Aeromaster sheet:

Sorry for the dust, we have the builders in at the moment and its everywhere.

Im also going to put myself down possibly for the following:
1:24th scale - not sure which one, it may be the FW190, Mustang or the Hurricane.
1:24th Little Nellie autogyro.
1:72nd Avro Vulcan - I want to do one with the flightpath set.

I saw a 1/72 Vulcan built with a flightpath set. Could not tell the difference from one built OOB.

I've displayed my Nellis 77 Vulcan at the last two ATF/SIG shows and is one of the models I'll be bringing.

There's a thread "Models for AMSIG SMW 2009 Display". which shows what people are going to bring.

I'm group leader for the FW190 build so there is a good excuse to join up and build it for the GB as well as for display for Telford.

Okay scrap the plan for the Vulcan and the Little Nellie then. My appologies to the people who have already got them built. I am tempted by the FW190 but im not sure if i feel ready to airbrush the camo yet.

I shall be using a big Hairy stick for my 1/48 FW190. Not an airbrush in sight.

The Mustang is very tempting as is the Stuka and the Hurricane.

Hi Ollie

Is there a problem with the link in your signature? It doesn't seem to lead anywhere.

Canberras both arrived today, i think the B(1)8 will be from the box and the PR9 will use after market decals.

Spitfire Vb and Seafire IIIC kit where picked up today. I will start making progress on these models when my currant project is out of the way. It is taking up lots of space but it will be fun when done.

Cutty Sark kit arrived today.
