God they do bigger then 1:72 holy Moley would strangley love to see how bad the kit is lol

I put a bid in last night Paul it finishes in about an hour so I'll find out if I get it or not

[Alan 45]

Well I won so on it's way to me is a Bf 109 so I'll see what happens when it arrives , will it be a passable build or will I have to crash it

Can't wait to see if it is a horror of a kit or if the 1:48 scale was better then the 1:72 scales

cheers for that mate it er did make interesting reading , I actually can't wait to build it when it does come that is , if it does prove unbuildable it will end up as a crashed relic in a field and from reading that it might just make the kit look better

There's a contrary side of me that would love to re-scribe and super-detail one of these and then enter it in a contest, just to horrify the 109 aficionados. (Strictly speaking, since modelling contests are supposed to be judged on modelling ability rather than accuracy, it would actually be possible to win with a well-built Starfix kit...)

Do please do it and take photos of the horrified faces

I like it, it is a basic kit that cost next to nothing and is an ideal source for messing with, trying techniques and having a great time with your lad...that's the best thing.

Just to add, that Starfix do a 1/48 109, it is a really terrible kit with little detailing, poor fit and stickers for decals, worth doing if you want to use up some left over paints or just practise on.

I have one on the way mate lol I'm going to try and build it OOB and do a good job and I do mean try it might well be beyond my skill level lol

[Guest]

Alan i can't wait to see how good a job ya do on it.

Migrant that's it I think that model makers should be given more marks/points for taking a dog of a kit and making them shine and not just by adding better bits to it or taking parts of one kit and adding it to make it better. would love to see all those who have far better skill then me and my lad have a go at these dog kits and make them look amazing.

I have just built a Starfix P51d after seeing your thread.

[Guest]

Cheers Paul
