Which model to build next.

Post by davidm »

I can't decide what to build next as i have just about finished the helicopter i've been doing.

It's a choice from
1:48 Rafale B
1:32 Spitfire f22/24
1:48 A-10
1:48 F-16c
1:72 F-4
1:72 NH-90

What do you rekon!

I'm guessing the Rafale is the Revell kit?

I say go for that. Don't see all that many around despite it being an impressive looking machine. Plus, the Revell kit is a bit of a beauty and builds into a cracking model :smile:

I would go for a 1/48 A-10, with full weapons load, and colourful markings, I 'm sure there is plenty of decal sheets available :smile:

Revell Rafale is a really nice kit to work on with pretty much no vices at all!! Really enjoyed my one and will be doing a couple more in the future.

It looks awesome ! That is one nice Rafale :-)

Still having to decide aswell what I'm going to build..... I got a Monogram kit of a Kingfisher (with the little metal parts) two tamiya kits a Focke Wulf 190D and the nice Mustang kit..... an old Revell Hurricane kit, a big Revell ME-109 kit and some other small kits.... haven't built a kit since 4 or 5 years ..... last one was a Brewster Buffalo (Tamiya) which was pretty cool :-)
