Feeble excuse to post some pics of previous builds
1/48 Italeri Hs 123. In an exclusive poll consisting of all the modellers in my house called Gorby, this was voted 'kit most deserving of a punch in the face'.
1/48 Italeri Ju 87G. Featuring - 'Messerschmitt maintenance made easy', "Aaarrrh, that's where the sticky-out things go". When they were told they were being sent a pointer, they hoped for something with a waggy tail.
Getting ready to go off and annoy the neighbours.
Eduard Bf 109. Modelling is so much easier getting these bods to build and paint them for me.
Eduard Fw 190. (Subtitled: How I butchered the butcher bird)
Hobbywhatsit Bv 141. What was that designer smoking?
Perhaps if we look at it longer, it might make sense.
Tamiya He 219. That bloke with his hand in his pockets is a lazy git. I've not seen him doing any work.
I had to glue three of those toasting forks back on before it was ready for it's time in the limelight, and I'll look forward to many years of gluing the bloody things back on.
Oh the embarrassment! A stylish airfield shouldn't be seen wearing spot and stripes at the same time.
Tamiya Do 335. This is the first model that I decided was good enough to post back in deepest darkest 2016. What a lucky world.
Tamiya Me 262 & Kettenkrad My first 'returnee' build which is why it's hiding in the shed. Quick! Push it back in or those damn Britishers will laugh at it. What fool put that stripy thing on the drinks trolley?
Dragon Me 163 The pilot's wondering why he's glued to a ladder.
(On the left) Tamiya Fi 103 V1 converted to piloted version in a what-if/what-the-hell scheme
AM Tech Ta 183 (you're not supposed to know there's an easier way for the pilot to get in on the other side.)
Dragon Ba 349 Natter - relaxing with it's trousers off.
Trumpy Me 509. We need to give the ground crew a round of applause for their dedication spending the entire war pretending to work. It reminds me of my own career.
JD That looks amazing, no excuse needed to post your work sir...

Spanjaard looks really good. would love to have a closer look at the 262 and the stuka 🙂

gorby Thanks for all the nice comments mates. 🙂
I'm not worthy (plainly a load of tosh, but I need to keep up the pretence of looking humble). 😄
Spanjaard: The Stuka is in my Albums and the 262 is too shy to show it's face in public, so I'm afraid I can't show any more photos of it. 😉

gorby Thanks Capt. I enjoyed having a play around with it (it certainly beats working for a living. 🙂 )

JW The photo captions are classic. Thanks for sharing.
As I had my hanger dio out for a recent photo shoot, I had a go at using it for it's original purpose – as a photo prop rather than a dio. In a pitiful attempt to try and replicate old photos I've done them in glorious monocolour (don't even think of telling me they're in the wrong shade of grey!). Through the medium of Gimp (Photoshop for those people to tight to buy Photoshop) I've bullied several thousand pixels into pretending to be a background, as it gives the game away slightly if there is an enormous Revell Contacta on the horizon. It's the first time I've tried this so if you laugh enough to cause yourself an injury, I really don't need to know. The observant (pedantic) amongst you may note that the background isn't entirely consistent with the background in some of the other photos. This is because this is a top secret revolving aerodrome which the nazis would almost certainly been developing (but probably only if they were drinking the same stuff as I am).
