Shes about 14" long the only thing on the PE I noticed was that it's only for the superstructure area the rest of the railing one has to get for the deck.She is still very nice in the details,Dragon has been doing some 1/350 destroyers w/PE also alot of modern stuff and a WWII found here USS Buchanan - Britmodeller.com built by Phil Reeder he does some pretty damn nice work.

Went to LHS today. Didn't really see anything jumping out at me, besides the new Tamiya 1/48 Lancaster. Not wanting to leave empty handed I bought these two....



And when I got home, I had these waiting for me in the mail....

Some very nice purchases there Jan!

I've just bought this book for yet more research into the Nachtjagd and a future modelling project.

Excellent! A future project? Perhaps we can collaborate on that. I have to do Maj. Paul Forster's He 219 first... I could always send the kit to Wurger and he could do a better job!

with nothing new of interest for me in some time, money spent on framing some of what I have. Always more in sleeves than money to frame it seems.

Sorry for pic quality, glass and sun always a problem. More than 80 full size on the walls, but more than that in sleeves need framed.
