Was thinking of my Dad earlier today and remembering the first kit I ever built. A 1/72 Airfix Messerschmitt Bf-109G. I'm talking 1975-ish here! I can still see its blister packaging and the light blue plastic... All the flash. The ill-fitting bits. Thought of the (short) time and (large amount of) glue I took to build it and the praises I got from my Dad (who was a modeller too).
Thought it would be cool to hunt down that kit again and build it again, with the advantadge of the skills and experience I've acquired since. Would anyone else care to share a trip down Memory Lane with me?
