... as we have no dog and a wooden floor- no problem at all.
The scale is 1:25, same scale as the Kyosho Mini-Z series. But runs a bit better and faster.... :angel:

Martin,
the Mossie with the unusual nose was the FM.Mk X1X night fighter variant.
She had a detachable "Universal"nose cone which was able to accept either the british or American radar for her job as a night fighter........first flight was in  April,1944
Hope that answers your question. neil. O0

It does indeed.

So I guess no one has one of the models I 'appealed' for?

Never mind, I'll just have to buy Trumpeter's 1:32 Su-27

I'm now off to find a surface in the house which can comfortably hold a 70cm by 46cm plastic model for display :D

Not built many kits in a fair while, but this is my latest, Revell's 1/72nd Mig 31 Foxhound. This was airbrushed in Tamiya XF19 Sky Grey and XF20 Medium Grey. The details were all done by hand. The kit was built straight out of the box this time. The decals weren't brilliant at all, and I wasn't impressed with the lack of interior detail, and the fact there is no internals to the intakes or the exhausts. {:-{

Next on my build list is Bronco's Staghound Mk3, then their Sd.Kfz.221. I shall also get round to finishing the Airfix Severn lifeboat I bought from SteamboatPhil at Wicksteed :-))
