Nope. I don't mind at all.
As I've mentioned before in my thread, recolors of the 1/100 scale models can be made available vie Ecard for the same exorbitant cost. The site is almost back in business, I heard.

I love what you do with these little models. You make them look much better than I could. (I design, I don't build that good

)
And the fact that you call me "mate" is an honor

B-man

Better men than you have had me before a Board of Inquiry my friend. Of course that is another story that probably would have to be in the Lounge!

Thanks everybody for the kind comments and support. And Bruno without designers like your good self, modellers (good or bad) would still be sticking bits of plastic together (ugh!)

So where's the pics of the entire air wing?

Your little Air Force looks great..

**Rata** · #**218** 10-22-2018, 02:53 PM

Thanks Glen. My little air force is small enough to use the top wing of your Duck as a carrier deck!

It's been awhile since watching this thread. you have done excellent work.
been working on my trans mat beam so we can get together and hoist a few down under. what's the signature beer there now a days? I loved Foster's back in the 70's however it has been losing translation cross world currently.
back to carrier wing, have to build a 1/100 scale flight deck to display these birds. Lex, Yorktown, Ranger perhaps?

Thanks CMDRTED. Actually you've got me thinking now about a carrier deck diorama to display all these little buggers when I finally finish (if ever) this thread. I've still got more in the stash to build than I've actually built so far!

Mate, Fosters has gone the way of the Dodo- haven't seen it for years. Lot of imported stuff available here nowadays but stubborn Aussies still stick with the local stuff- Tooheys, VB, Crown. Queenslanders prefer their own brew: XXXX. (We reckon they call it XXXX 'cos they can't spell beer

).
