| (...) You ARE busy these days... Which FW wer you trying for? The 190? (looks like a 190 ARF but there were dozens of FW craft) I found a b+w pic here: (URL) but it doesn't show off your brilliant colour scheme, which I like very much. It would be (...)

| (...) Thanks Shaun! It is the first of a ton, expect pics of the SM spit within a month (because it is a custom kit, like what MB does, rather than just a MOC) And the p-51 within a few days hopefully, all I need now is a darn A-wing cockpit!

| (...) Hey, I'm in even more fear, because I have a Ta-152--the high- altitude mod of the FW-190 design spec--on my list. But it is, of course, a very tentative list; the He 162 and Ba 349 are ahead of it, which gives you an idea of how far there is (...) (23 years ago, 5-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)

| (...) Um, the warthog is beautiful ONLY in the way that any "form follows function" design that hits (in this case, NAILS) its design goals is beautiful. It's *not* beautiful the way, say, a Jag E type is. (E types aren't very functional, trust me. (...) (23 years ago, 5-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military)
