The Mummy 3 – Tomb of the dragon thingy…

its actually not that bad – well worth a couple of hours vegging even if the widebodied passenger Beau winds me up:eek:

Xmas gift along with “The Dark Knight” which I may get to tonight, or “Hancock” from BSG juniors presents….

As above, sharks have been around for billions of years more than our species. The only evolution they really have gone through is to shrink somewhat. If people willingly venture into the sea, its at their risk surely – and if the other reports I have read about this are true, the victim knew the risks.

Not the most inspired piece of work, almost looks like a ground decoy from WW 2!

That said, its there, intact and not melted down so I’d give it 5.5 for artistic impression and where there is some airframe, there is some hope for another day?

Being as its Crimble and all – my mum just reminded me that I used to spray the Brut 33 that an auntie used to buy me around the bin to keep the cats away from the Turkey left overs. Ummm, OK, will think on that one again… seems a sound plan….

Ummm

Tough call – try and mix “numbers” and quality of what was manufactured….?

1) Hawker
2) Handley Page
3) Avro
4) Vickers Supermarine (is that a cheat so I can get Wellingtons and Spits in !?)
5) RAE for “early” contribution ?

Bristol is a good shout, Shorts, Westland for pioneering UK helicopters etc…..

this will run a while !

Do you mean the Airfix kits?
I saw a 1/24th Airfix Mustang for sale and was wondering about its quality.
Anybody have opinions?

I do – thanks for that.:confused: They were superb quality – can’t imagine that they have changed the moulds etc, far too expensive. They also did a JU-87 in that scale and have heard rumours about a Mosquito in that scale – size large.

Corgi are a bit “Hit and miss”, I have the “pale blue” Buccaneer and it does like like I made it ! Maybe now they have a new owner it will be sorted. Century Wings & Hobby Master offer awsome quality as do Gemini.

I make the kids still with my son and I did try again. I used to have the big Airfix 1/24 Spitfire and Hurricane and even got to be reasonable with an airbrush, but as Clint Eastwood says “a man has to know his limitations”…….

not so much instant gratification for me, more that I love the ‘planes, just can’t make them that well myself – not a craftsman, I even started a small fire in a bathroom putting up ceramic tiles…. that will give you an idea of how ham fisted I am !:(

good new thread – DIY faff ups !?
