Regia Aeronautica GB II (06/15/09 to 06/15/10)

Happy Birthday to me, Happy birthday to me. 40 today. Yey.

Guys your just all too kind with your kindlys. 1stly let me congratulate Sir Bondliness on a fantastic Gabbiano. I have the self same kit and after seeing yours, that has to be on my list for the new GB. Not sure ill be brave enough to attempt that colour scheme though. I noticed the teak decking, Very nice touch.

Anyhoo, hold on to your hats, heres the Luftwoller (Pissed as a fart) Birthday video.

For just a second there, I thought you were going to get nekid again.  Thank goodness for the 'DAVE' shirt being under that uniform!  It saved the day! 

 I wanna know how much of his B-day monies he spent on the movie actress with the pretty eyes and smile to pose as his imaginary GF Geri?  For a moment I thought she was gonna bonk his noggin with the mug and pants him when he was made to turn around.  Well maybe next year.

 Guy what is it you said ? Life begins at 40?  Looks like you had a wonderful day!  Good deal! and toss me the phone number of that actress you used.

I'm with Dave though I am happy we got the B-day without the B-day suit!

More video of the Pretty lady and less of the "Guy" that didnt get a Razor for hid B-day..

Guy looks like you made out like a Bandit with all that Loot..

Love the vidoe Guy! You do'nt look a day over 40 my freind! That Wingnuts kit is sweet. I hear nothing but great things about it.

Great to see you two, and yeah you seem pissed. I couldna make out that model, but I really look forward to RA II. BTW I don't know Liverpool football much but much adore the sponsor Carlsberg.

Short Bondo Story: I was 23, you were 10 little rug rat.Lived in KobnHavn, Copenhagen to my redneck friends who chew, and Guy you would not understand that.

Note: I'm getting pissed too in honor of your Bday. Really. Cause I love you, bud.

Anygo hoo it's a nice town and whatnot, but the main attraction on a Friday afternoon are the Brewery Tours. Tuborgs was OK but Carlsbergs was first class.Go round there at 5 pm and take the tour, at the end led into a great hall for tasting where they had a little flag set out for each chap who's on the tour. Trick was to find the Muslims by the crescents on the little banners- love them, lady brings the big tray with Pils, Ale, Porter, Amber, cherry soda, lemon soda, and all that rot. Hashim says "here take these, we don't drink alcohol". Really. Pity.

Happy birthday friend.

Well I heard about the extension and hope to contribute here but not committing yet. Will be keeping watch and commenting at least. I build slow and have a couple other GB in progress!!

BTW HAPPY BIRTHDAY GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oooo... Not a good place to be Charles after all that party food and the drinkin'. 

LOL, your damn straight there. I have more exhaust gas than an F-16 on re-heat. Prolly sumink to do with drinking loads of beer and loads of crap.

A mate of mine (Ex-chef) made me a chocolate cake. A monster, with about a trillion callories. Ive eaten about a third of it in one sitting......God i feel ill.

Not a pretty thought. At least Guy's bum wasn't showing...

Guy, verry happy birthday mate and enjoy it. Not to burst your bubble but Manchester United are by far the best team in the land by far. The rest of the Premiere league are followers to United

Steve

Steve, im not sure if your aware but if you add a few letters to the words 'Manchester United' it comes up with 'Bunch of useless overpaid nancy boys who ressemble shaved monkeys that have been kicked through Harrods' Amazing that eh?

Oh and your Fired from the GB for mentioning that team that shall not be named in thier entirity again.

(Fired for 24hrs at least)

...Guy

Lord and master of the GB, it has almost been 24 hrs now and I humbly ask permission to rejoin this most excellent GB.

However, I cannot turn my back on my boys in red so as long as you dont mention Liverpool I will not mention the best soccer team ever.

Steve

I think he'll forgive you Steve. Boy am I glad I did'nt send him that Queens Park Rangers jersey for his birthday. I probally would have been kicked out for a week! See you thought just because you were talkng to a bunch of Amies that we would'nt know about football. I played for several years as a goal keeper until I was about 14 years old. Now where are the progress pics on that Wingnut kit. I really want to see one of those bad boys built.

Yeah, and I'm glad I didn't send the team over to his house to sing him Happy Birthday!

Welcome back on board Steve. Im thinking of a suitable punishment and what about having in your signature 'Guy and Liverpool FC are great and Mank Utd are Poooo' that would do it i reckon LOL.

Did you see my pics of the Wingnut wings kit in Franks GB? It looks like a cracker. As i said the only downside is lack of PE for the Guns. Those spandaus were see through on the jackets. Molded styrene just wont cut it.

...Guy

Guy and Steve...you both have it all wrong. I believe it was the Columbus Crew who won the MLS this year...

Hey Mucker, what is MLS????. Never heard of it. HEHEHE

Steve

Well I was wondering as to what and where you were hidding ? Even sent you a pm weeks ago with no response. I had to begun to think you and Geri must of been vacationing in the Swiss Alps or something like that....

On my bench right now is a Gloster Sea Gladiator with pounds of bits to add to it and a Blohm und Voss 155 V1 I mess with when I need a break from the P/E parts for the Gladiator. 

I do have something different in mind though for my next "Italian Marked" aircraft....  

Good to Hear from you Fearless Leader ! Tons of Luck with your Home Sale Hope the Next one has a Huge Modeling Room and Display area...

Oh I acquired my next little wingaroni this weekend! The Breda Ba. 44 which I'll decorate as either Ala Littoria or RA, don't know which but the mottle looks like fun.

Czech Masters in 1/72, resin kit.

This is based on the De Havilland Dragon Rapide, of which I have a partial extra kit in the stash on account of the missing canopy incident. So while I don't question Czech Masters abilities, if I need any extra bitties I've got them courtesy Airfix.

Love this GB, Guy!!!

Cool subject there Bondo. I have not seen one of those. Thats what I love about this GB. The more we get into it the more obscure stuff pops up. I would like to find a kit of a Breada Ba65 if anyone knows of one. I am pretty sure there is noting in 1/48 but I would build a 1/72 scale bird if I could find one.

Oh almost forgot! Guy is ace and I whish I was his son even though I'm three years older than him!

                                                                                       Soulcrusher

You're in luck, Chuck.

Azur makes it in 1/72

Oh You guys. Too kind Too kind.

Bondo, what a splendilicious looking kit, if ever i saw one. It deffo looks like a Dehaviland Rapide. Ive never seen one of those EVER.

I have a plan. I may start the 21st CT veltro from a tray on my lap. Ill try to keep it OOB and concentrate on the painting and weathering. Do you know, im getting the modelling twitch.

...Guy

Thanks Bondo. I also hear of a all resin kit in 1/48 scale too but it is long OOP. I am going to have to think about mabye adding one of those to the stash to complete my Regia Aeronautica collection.

Hey Guy I was just thinking. Do we need a new GB badge? It could be the same one with just the Roman numeral II in the pic just so everyone knows. What do you think? And yes you need to start building that Macchi straight away even if it is on the kitchen table. You will report for duty or you will be pressed into service! Remember the original rules violence may be employed if neccesary! Now get crackin'

                                                                                              Soulcrusher

Oh yes, i most wholeheartedly agree. We need another GB badge. I think it was Sir Frank the Daywalker who did the last one but all ideas, simple or other, will be most welcome for tender. LOL.

...Guy

How's this?

Small version...
