Brilliant!

A simple photo like that can evoke so many memories of my 'yoot' smile

Love it!

I thought the Sherman was a big tank when I was young.. Now the Abrams kinda dwarfs it.

Update on my Roman Quinquereme prototype. I changed the hull planking to light walnut, added the anti ramming plate along the wales and added the ballistas - all wood and photo etched brass.

I ran out of 2mm dowel for the oars though, only had enough for a third of the total! (180 altogether...)

As above, they are on ebay now

The Mk1 Focus RS registrar from RSOC put a hell of a lot of work into getting these made, fair play to the man!
The focus RS is available in RHD or LHD exclusively via ebay or the RSOC.

Two Tickford Directors commissioned these with a lot of help from RSOC (I know I'm one of the two Directors)

Thank you! smile

I fought against designing this one initially, as I thought there's be little interest and they always look a tad ugly, but I have proved myself wrong - it's more elegant than I thought it would be...

Bit of a Lamborghini thing going there, thankfully there's a Lancaster to split them up! Did you build it yourself?

I built a Lancaster many years ago but that one was pre-made. I've thought about the possibility of doing one in the future, one of the good quality ones from the far east. The UK one flew right over my house some months ago, fantastic!

Thanks. I've been looking at that site for months as it's a good source for info on new models. I usually look at the Autoart thread. I've thought about joining, are you on there?

I am, it's a really good and friendly forum. Everyone is very helpful. One of my models (eBay purchase) was delivered with a missing grill and Minichamps no longer supply spares. A DX member from the US randomly had a spare and sent it over. He wouldn't accept any payment.

My collection thread.

They will go crazy over your Lambo collection!

That's a big collection of BMWs you have there. That reminds me, I bought a Minichamps Lamborghini Miura that had one of the exhausts missing, I never thought to ask Minichamps if I could get a spare. I can't imagine any collector would have a spare though!
