Perfect model

Post by Nige201980 »

If there was one model that was your must have/build what would it be and what scale. (In production or not).

Mines the tempest in 1:48 reason is that I read a book when I was a kid by Robert Jackson part of the yeoman series and the sheer size and power if the aircraft left me wanting to build one since.

For me it's the afv 432 and M-10. I've got those on the go now, so as for one I haven't got, a super sized buccaneer at affordable prices would be nice. They were designed and built in my home town so I love them!

I would want my previous cars.
03 Ford Focus ST170 and 06 Focus ST2

Id also like to see more 'horror' models (i have done a Halloween dio and have the Psycho house), Jason, Freddy, the doll from SAW, Chucky etc along with more classic monsters like the wolfman, frankenstein etc in at least 8th scale.

Im happy that more movie cars are being released (mad max, back to the future, beverly hills cop) but the more the merrier I say

I'm an armour guy, and I model mostly in 1/35, but I'd like to be able to mix a few aircraft with my armour in a diorama.
However, there doesn't seem to be any kits of aircraft in 1/35. 1/32 is close, but it's noticeably bigger.
So I'd like a few WWII aircraft in 1/35 preferably made by Dragon.
Some Stukas, Bf 109s, IL 2s, Yaks.

There are a few 1/35 planes out there, but very limited. If you do modern armour, there are quite a few 1/35 helos as well.

I've seen a few, but the WWII selection is very bleak, a few recon planes and some German rockets.
One day modern armour may cross my bench... but not this day :D

I'm a huge fan of the Infinity G35 (or Nissan GT350) and it's my dream car, and I'd love to fix up a model exactly how the real thing would be.

Fujimi is the only manufacturer that makes it and is a bit hard to find. I just ordered a Lexus IS350 from Fujimi, which also happens to be my second favorite car :lol:

I dunno really about perfect model. At the moment the perfect collection of models for me would have to be all the modern SPGs available. Its a real shame the 1/35 Revell PzH2000 is hard to get these days, as its such an important one to have for that collection.

I will one day model all 9 Red Arrows in formation as well, that would be pretty perfect.

Also I would love to be able to model a decent model of the Royal Navy SAR Sea King, I know there is an Airfix model for it, but its pretty bad I have heard. This is for personal sentimental reasons, along with an idea for a new tatoo I have as well. So to be able to model one of those well is quite important to me.

I'm lucky that mine's already been done (and I own one)- 1/32 IAF SUFA..... Although a 1/32 KFIR would hit the spot too ;)

Nige, here's a few pics of the Accurate Armour 432 resin kit. As you can see, it's a WIP but I think you can see how nice it is. It's just the basic veh, so you'll need to scratch the stuff for your particular panzer. You can see I've started on the penthouse frame at the back.

That looks great mate and brings back memory's of trying to set up the complex in the dark and rain and cold great memory's. Cant wait to see it finished and I understand waiting to get it right. Are you doing it with the tent up and the cage on top. Ill see if I have any photos for you if you would like.

Oh yes, happy days!
I've got some stuff to build the cage and some racking in the back. Don't think I'm going to try the tent thing as I want to see inside, hence the mortar hatch being open.

Any pics you have would be a great help. I've got a few from the web, and a few of my own from telic, but mostly it's from memory! :wall:

Any interior pics would be the best, although if you were on the sas it'd be different to mine.

Cheers anyway Nige!
