    YEA HI Toby ive always liked them with there massive counter rotating props an it looks a nice plane an I doubt you would get it in 1/32 or 1/48 as it would be huge

      I think I saw a 1/32 Gloster Gladiator from ICM the other day. Something new to you; a bi-plane

        Thoughts on large Cold War aircraft? Obviously not 1/32, but a Vulcan or a Victor as something slightly different?

            I built the excellent Trumpy 1/32 Swordfish and I have the ICM Mk 1 Gladiator in the stash...

              Well, it will be WW2 but still pondering options.

                Well, not unique!

                I have a 'stash' of one, and that's for the BoB group build.

                Similar to Barry, I tend to build 1/32 scale aircraft, and they are usually a bit on the dear side.

                  There's always an exception that proves the rule, Steve...........
                  But I am impressed, and I am trying to restrict myself at the moment. I have a couple of very grand schemes planned and if I buy anything else they just won't get done.
                  And they always take a lot longer than you expect.
                  Got to get that bl**dy highlander done!

                    Barry. If it has to be WWII then, have you ever built an IL-2? I'd love a go at one of them.

                      The Tamiya Phantoms build well, Not a Spey I know but they do look good in the Vietnam era Jungle camo...

                                Not the era you are looking for but how about an A10- Warthog. An iconic aeroplane that has seen more camouflage options than you could shake a stick at.
                                Something not quite as wide but with a fair length F104 Starfighter.
                                HpH models do a rather nice Walrus mkI
