Who makes the 1/144th Mozzie?

Old Aeroclub kit, very hard to find now.
F-toys did a pre-made, pre-painted one too

Shame! I thought someone had started making them.

Easily my favourite plane.

Today.


Edit: Just googled "Aeroclub Mosquito". Found one at $49.90. Way out of my league.

Try Kingkit, he was selling them for £11.99 a while ago, might have one?
It is a late B35 version
The F-toys is an FBVI, nice model, currently repainting one  :)

The F-Toys models are indeed very nice little models, I have one of their F-8 Bearcats. Not sure how they all come but mine did require a little construction of the snap together variety. They repaint easily too, although the actual factory job on them is quite respectable.

Woohoo! A Solido diecast Alouette III. Ok it's not as detailed as the Fujimi but this is the perfect wargaming item. It fits with my Portuguese nicely and for the child within, the blades, which are both removeable and foldable, even rotate. I'm in love anew.  :-*

Oh and it was even cheaper than the bloody awful Fujimi kit, which now looks set to become a crashed objective marker.

My Russian Civil War project gets air support!

A pair of Testors Classics 1/48 kits, one SPAD Type 13 and a Nieuport Type 17C, both of which appeared in Russian Imperial Air Force inventory (so sayeth Wikipedia, anyway) and both of which could have appeared at various times during the Russian Civil War.

One of them will become White Russian, the other Bolshevik, I haven't decide which will get which livery, and might wind up just flipping a coin.

The Testors Classics kits are cheap ($8 Cdn), basic and should do nicely for wargaming props.
