Ah. For the most part, I keep them hanging up on my ceiling in my room, though I keep my tanks in that diorama I posted, and the Me 262 on the same shelving unit.

So, Catch22, what D-9 markings and colour scheme did you settle on?

I decided to go with either "Black 11" or "White 11", but will most likely do "White 11", with perhaps one or two minor deviations such as adding a spinner spiral. Once again, just waiting for them to arrive, though I may be getting a MiG-3 or Hayate in 1/32 today!

I will trade 2 Hawsegawa 1/48 F4U Corsair models in the boxes (one partially assembled and the other still in plastic unopened and both with decals) for one FW190 A 1/48 or (1/32 +$) I live in Oregon.

Just a thought, the models were given to me by a Marine to build for him but he just up and left. I am not a Corsair man...I am a FW sort of guy. ...Just a thought??

Is the kit itself up to much? You never know what you'll get with Revell; some are excellent, some are shocking. I decided before I got paid that I didn't need any more models, and that I wouldn't be buying any this month. So over the last few days, I've ended up buying

Dragon Ki61 Tony
PM Floatfire
PM Sea Fury
Hasegawa Beaufighter XI
MGM Spitfire PR mk.IX all in 1:72

The only problems I encountered with the kit is the landing gear, just not strong enough for the weight of the model. But I knew this was coming since I have built this kit before...

After some decals...
