The fact that Vance "The Human Thread Derailer" Crozier is running this GB requires us to go off topic early and often! Just found a Spad XIII for that French GB. And I'm about to wrap up the Shelby so I can start on a Saab!

 

Hey, I'm not and I have never been a... oh wait, no, you spelled it right! Embarrassed

Took a break fro the little Saab this weekend to work on... Flanker cockpits, Intruder cockpit and Greif clearcoatings.

I am impressed Vance, I spent most of the weekend napping Sleep

Ok, I did a little stuff done here and there.

Ok, here's my kit. The Blue Peter (sounds like a porno movie to me though) is pretty cool looking but I think I'm going to try to paint the old '80s four colour camo scheme.

Thanks guys, hopefully I'll be able to start before too much longer. Fairly simple kit but looks like it should build up pretty nice.

Is this thread haunted? Seriously, every time I come on here it says there is a new post, but there isn't! And it's just this thread, too!

lol, it's kind of infectious isn't it, once you start finding kits you've never heard of before. I may have some reference questions for you when we switch languages!

No missiles, bombs, or guns? What's the point of building one of those? Stick out tongue

I suppose you could drop meatballs on someone's head though.

I dug my old Lindberg Drakken out of storage.

No modern decals.

I am deciding if I want to try that camo scheme on it or go some other scheme.

Well, I wouldn't eat kim-chee (fermented cabbage with spices) either (the smell is horrible) until I tried it to impress a cute Korean American waitress and now I like the stuff.

Maybe lutefisk is the same eh? Hmm
