I'm hoping to get my hands on the 1/24 mossie if not I'm going to get trumpys hurricane

I would love one as well but where to put it!!! I guess I could chop the wings and do a Navy version....

I think you have a point there Ian ! I would probably have to just build it and then stor it in the loft afterwards as even though I do have a room that I display my builds in I doubt I could find a space

Store it will be the second challenge, build it's the first one.

[ATTACH]93966[/ATTACH] The wife bought me this today as a surprise when she went Xmas shopping with our daughter.So this is my entry for the 1/24 sig.Its not as bad a kit as I thought it was.I will have to get some seat belts and maybe a cockpit detail set though.

I have a spare 1/24 PE Sutton Harness (MDC Model 24002) if that's any use to you Dave.

Question, as I'm relatively new to the forum, what do we do with it once built?

Do you mean on the forum or is this a case of display space ?

[Guest]

Err... Both!!

Do you know what, most of us seem to be using airfix kits for this group build, I think secretly polux works for airfix and came up with this idea to increase airfix sales in the Christmas period!!!! :P :P

But most people have bought them cheap, I've got the Spitfire I bought December and the Hurricane bought today, both less that half price from Debenhams :-)

What do you normally do with them?

As far as the Forum part. Once you have completed the build thread, with in progress photos, questions, hints and tips etc. you then post some nice photos of your new pride and joy and post them in a thread in the completed section.

There after most of us put them on display on a shelf, or hang them from the ceiling.

And everyone checked the scale models shop. John has loads and at good prices as well...

Well the 1/24 is a SSIG and if you scroll down the forum you'll find there is a forum for these builds , you have to put your name in the title like this ' Michael Williams 1/24 hawker Hurricane ' or what ever plane you decide to do

Then you show the box top of your kit , the sprues, the instructions and anything else you going to add like PE

Then you do an under construction thread showing how you go with the kit from start to finish

That's what you do on here as for putting it somewhere after you've finished well that's up to what space you've got at home to present it
