              I wish Aidi... that is beyond my talents.. its hand built from a foam plug copied from a 3 view plan which in turn becomes a mould etc etc!

                Are you accepting defeat before it's even arrived?

                    I love plastic modelling. Got a new kit on it's way and will be doing a build review soon. Whoop.

                      Are there many plastic kit fans on here ?

                            Count me as one. Still got many unbuilt kits and a lot of built ones gathering dust in storage. Used to mainly build military jets and some of the old wartime aircraft that my grandfather used to fly when he was a test pilot during WWII. Now with a two year old so only able to keep going with the rc heli's.

                              I use to love making them, but had nowhere to put them once I'd made them, so I stopped making them.
