IIFI next year? If we start planning now then it should be possible.

Looking at all the photos of everyone's models when you miss it does create a certain ....urge

Thanks George

Thanks George, I'm really wishing I had been able to go now that I see all the pics!
Looking forward to the next instalment and some vids .

Fantastic photos as always Pat, thank you!
What is the twin tailless model at the top of the page? Don't recall seeing one before.

It is Humbrol Matt No 67, Tank Grey.

That's looking big already Monz! looking forward to seeing it all come together.

I'm having similar issues with two recently started projects. One is a kit and the other is someones plan and in both cases there are parts that don't fit and things drawn incorrectly. Much easier to do it all yourself!

Very nice George. Are you doing a tissue only finish or do you just want the coloured tissue as a background colour for painting?
Have a good weekend at the IIFI. I'm too busy to take any time off this year .

I did some trimming at the end of the session at Clayton Green yesterday. Here is a video of one of the flights taken by Pete Fardell. It still needs work (obviously) but is not bad for a first throw.

Here is a video of one of Pete's flights with the "Boxy Lady" Bostonian at Clayton Green on Saturday.

Tiny progress!
