Will we see them soon in Australian colors?
Will we see them soon in Australian colors?
Yes indeed, they will be part of my late war No.3 Squadron RAAF which fought in North Africa, Sicily and Italy.
The squadron used the P-40 until they were replaced by the P-51, of which I also have some ready for repainting.
Then I can finally get back to finishing the WGS campaign for the unit I started writing in 2013. So much to do, so little time....
Eager to see pictures and read battle reports!
They are just the Australian aircraft to paint, I also have to finish three AIM SM79s and three AIM BR.20s, as well as some Bf 109s and Martin 167s for the Regia Aeronautica, Luftwaffe and Vichy French.
I was going to buy AIM 109s but now we have the 'real' thing I will convert some JG2 aircraft to JG27 'Afrika'.
Well I'm hooked. PM coming.
Got my stuff safe and sound

PM'd.
David - is there any significance to the blue vs red prices ?
Colors are the bids that's all . . . .
Hi Dave,
regarding Zeppelins,
what is postage to the UK likely to be?
Lest we forget
Hn, may pick up the RAP as a tournament prize: you say "gently used", but is still complete, yes?
Update/Bump
March Mini Madness deadline approaches . . . just sayin'
March Mini Madness Auction ends midnight March 26! (Bumpola)
Couple of weeks ago I got a RNAS North Sea Blimp from Clipper. Now I am lucky in owning quite a few of Clippers models but this is the best Thanks Clipper
Got a nice package on my doorstep yesterday...
(note: All 4 prop discs are included, I only had 1 on for these pictures)
Awesome quality. Very sturdy all around. No worries about breaking anything on this through normal careful use.
Do yourselves a favour and get one!
Thanks, great pictures! They are a bit imposing on the tables . . . . it's been a fun run for sure!

That is a great looking D.H.2, David!
I got an amazingly painted up Shapeways DH.2 and an Ares Caproni in the mail today sent from sunny Arizona! Thanks Clipper, everything arrived as planned. I can’t wait to get them in the air! As soon as I get more disposable funds, I will try to see what else I can do to support the NZ fund.
Clipper, you wouldn’t happen to have any Zeppelins left for a new recruit, would you sir?
I will have to look into the hanger bay, seems there were a few un-claimed ones floating about . . . They can put a strain on the relationships . . . : )

Not on the horizon, these are a bit smaller than 1/200 scale although they claim otherwise . . . too much difference on the table for my liking . . . but I am a bit "out there" . . .
Are you having a yard sale, David?
What else is still available? Zepps?
Ok Zeppelin fans, I am planning a new build this spring. I have taken on an assistant to help keep the elves in line, so thinking on 10 at the moment. Any interest out there, 1/144" scale Type P. Thinking June whilst Mrs. Clipper is away with the grands = a few all nighters. Cost will be $200 as they were last time, postage extra. Cheers!
What paint scheme will be available?
That would bee so freakin' awesome, but alas, the money is just not there.
Please reserve one for me as well Dave!! I've been waiting for this day to arrive!!
Glad to hear that you have an assistant to help with the manufacturing!!
And as to the shipping... I would gladly drive up to your neck of the woods to pick mine up!
You mean, a kit which I would (gasp) have to assemble and (gasp) paint, myself? Like, work which I enjoy a lot?
Um, hm.
What might that run?
I will need to buy a little crew and armament set.
I proudly showed off my Zeppelin around in several conferences, game cons and shows, but I later discovered in horror that some of that brave men fell on duty during these missions alas.
