Good to see you Pingy[tup]
I think the colours for that one are RLM 78, 79 and 80, not a 100% sure on 78 lightblue…
hey pingtang, that’s the camo style I’m doing!! jules, would it be alright if I combined my build with the young guns group build?
Jules… I forgot I had the Martlet waiting for this build… you have a pic of the one in question?
(pokes tongue out)
Whos gettin’ cheeky then huh???
Just for that, I’m joining this GB also!!!
Besides, without mekeeping check who knows what mayhem Jules and Tom will get up to[sigh]
Ok, I’ll build a 109E, usual Tamiya offering using the PE I ordered for the BoB GB[:(!].
Problem is, I dont want to use the kit decals, but cant seem to find any NA decals relating to the 109’s[:(]
Anyone have any ideas???
If it comes down to it I’ll have to use the kit offerings I spose…
If I’m really lucky, I might be able to squeeze in the 129 B2 you sent me Jules, I saw somewhere a really cool squiggle paint scheme for one of those…
This is gonna be fun[:p]
Tanky No problem mate…
Tom I don’t have a photo but i do have the colour plate i’ll scan it for you as soon as i can[tup]anyway it’s a Martlett III AX733/K Of No 805 Sqn FAA Serving in the Western Desert during Sept 1941, camo was originally allover blue but stone uppersurfaces were added soon after arriving in the desert…
Hey, how good are those stencils people keep rabbiting on about???
The 129 I plan to do has a big red ‘F’ on the side, and the only thing I can think of is a stencil, but never used em before and have no idea how effective they are.
Sean - I like this scheme… I had a pic of the real aircraft saved for this very GB to entice you but I must have deleted it…
you know you hear it calling you!!!
P.S. the zebra stripe thing kinda reminds ya of Kremp’s lingerie huh? she seems to like that and the leopard spots the most…
Ahhh Tweets I was wondering when you were gonna show up, I almost mentioned Her name to try and draw you out[tup]
OK so your build is Tamiya 1/48 BF 109 E4/7 Trop from JG27 and POSSIBLE HS 129[?]
I Rember you showing us the pattern you were thinking of for the 129, RLM 80 squiggles all over it right[?]
And whaddya mean Mayhem that me and Tom will get up to, we are both well adjusted competely normal upstanding citizens of happy acre’s mental rest facility[:P]
Tom that striping ALMOST had me, but it looks far to easy!!!
You know I love complex and near impossible schemes, helps keep my blood pressure high[xx(]
Lingerie[?][?]
I thought those stripes were a fungal thing[%-)]
And dont get me started on the spots, moderators will boot me[8)][:o)][;)]
Ok, that woulda been just plain cruel[:(]
Yeah, the 129 camo looks really cool on this thing…
Might take a wee bit of time to get right, but will DEFINATELY be worth the effort in the end me tinks’
Good thing about squiggle camo, even if it goes horribly wrong, it still looks right!![;)]
Oh I beleive ya Jules, really I do.
BTW, taken your anti-fibbing pills today???
[XX] <----not gonna comment on that one Sean… [(-D][(-D]
I saw another one which may be the one you are talking about… nothing but tiny squiggles…
the bottom left one perhaps???
—edit—
ok you posted while I was sending my messagfe… yours is even more complex… poor Tweets… and to say I knew you when you were “normal”
It will be tight but I think I can squeeze this one in. Please put me down for the 1/35 Academy Stuart Honey. Thanks
Hmmm Tom, Tweets Myself and i see Darren’s online at the moment to, all of us online at the same time, the moderators will kick us off these forums in about an hour or so[tup]
Only page 2 and the madness has already begun[:P][:P][:-,][:-,][:-^]
Gotcha pmm736 great choice of build, it’s good to see some armour amongst the sea of messerschmitts…
[(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]
It’s all downhill from here!!!
Tom, I’m normal…in an ‘off axis’ kinda way[:D]
Mind you, you may have solved my red ‘F’ issue, I see one of those on the right[:)][:)]
Well gentlemen and lady (Kremps of course), this looks like it is going to be a whole load of fun [:p] All the usual suspects have turned up and it looks like almost everybody is building from JG27
I couldn’t resist actually pulling the 109 out of the stash tonight and giving the interior a base paint job. I probably won’t do anything else on it for ages but it was good to make a start. Oh and I promise I’m going to do my absolute best not to break the [censored] canopy on this one, honest [;)]
Cheers
Darren
It’s been since the BoB GB that we’ve all been on at once… when I woke up this AM there were 3 posts here… now we’re already on page two… I feel another good GB coming on!!!
Jules - I have a desert Martlet on my decal sheet from the BoB GB… light grey undersurfaces with a middle stone upper wings and very top portion of the fuselage… would like to see yours though…
Oh yeah forgot, glad to see you moved that date out a tad Jules, I’m positive we won’t have any trouble at all yacking until Sept.
Cheers
Darren
I think there is a saying about “the best laid plans” or something Darren…
hmmm I might have to do a 109 on this one as well as my “fringe build” we talked about this back in the BoB Gb… we’ll see…
Darren, you and canopies is like me and camo schemes…we just cant help ourselves.
Either that or our mothers maiden names are both Murphy[:0][:0][;)]
