I used to make the model aircraft. Mine were pretty good but nothing compared to what some people can do. My hobby has since turned into just lurking on the britmodeller.com forum at the amazing photos of finished models and works in progress threads.

WOW!

Some bloody good looking planes their pope!! I'm impressed. My building/painting skills are fairly poor so i stick to my limited edition diecast,they cost alot but they look better than anything i could do myself haha.

I do have a few Maisto Tailwinds. They're cheap and found in the toy section, but they're pretty detailed for what they are. Have a box full of them somewhere. I just spotted them at the store recently and started looking for new ones. The newest one I have is a Me.262 while I'm looking pretty hard for the Spitfire. It annoys me that they don't make a P-51, Bf-109, or a lot of other historic warbirds. Shoot... I have a P-61 Black Widow in that box I can't find. They make the obscure P-61 but not the basics...

They sound interesting mate, you'll have to get some pics up, let me have a butchers (look) or possibly a link?

The P51/P38's are popular, i only have the 3 mustangs but theirs alot moreout their and they look incredible. Petit 2nd is currently on her way to me, a great looking P51.
