Breighton 'G George day' 23rd Aug 2024

Along with the New Zealand SIG we made a surprise 'pop up' appearance at the Breighton (Shuttleworth t'North) open day on Sunday. Absolutely not an airshow we nevertheless had a Spitfire and a Dakota fly in to provide 1:1 reference. . Organised at Short notice after the Bomber command SIG were unabl...

Re: E3G Sentry and more

Inspired! - confirms my belief that modellers never look at anything without thinking of a use for it in their models!

The E-3 does come up nice too doesn't it?

David Hart's Space Ships

The DSC-2: a Kit from the Dawn of Time makes a Spacecraft of an Alternate Future I’ve been making “What Ifs” for fifty years now. My proudest modelling moment was when Mike McEvoy mentioned my 1/72 1985 P.1121 (Take one 1/72 and one 1/100 F-105 . . .) in his “Tailpiece” column. Now, as a regular ex...

Re: Figureworld North (Easingwold, York) 2024

Lovely job Team T&E! Really sorry I couldn't make it (I really need to borrow Huw's Time machine) Used to do a lot of figures so would have been good to see. Great they gave you a bigger display space - as ever I see the Multi-Role Combat SIG rose to the occasion! I saw that 'Luft 46' diorama at...

Magic roundabouts...Milton Keynes May 25th 2024

ModelKraft has moved to a new venue - still a school campus but lighter and airier than the previous and certainly easier to park. Catering was very good too, but due to the decision to get as many clubs and traders in as possible we were allocated only one six-foot table. Consequently only David an...

Ahhh....de Havilland May 2024

A number of SIG members visited the DeHavilland museum on Sunday for what turned out to be a quite delightful show at the recently re-furbished museum, home to no less than three actual Mosquitos. Amongst the wonderful museum aircraft were a surprisingly large number of traders and clubs. Terry had...
