I’ll be in with the Airfix 1/72 Wildcat. It does come with decals for Operation Torch which would fit the campaign nicely. But I might do one from Starfighter Decals sheet.
I’ve got 2 of the new Airfix F4F-4s but it’s the Guadalcanal and the Coral Sea-Midway markings. Two different flavors of P-40F Guadalcanal or Torch markings. An SB2U from Midway and P-400 Aerocobra but it’s more than 25% started. Decisions, decisions, decisions. Maybe one of the F4Fs.
Decision made! I’m in with a 1/72 scale Italeri Hudson MkIIIA from No.3 Bomber Reconnaissance Squadron RNZAF Henderson Field Guadal Canal November 1942. I’ve got the kit, I just need to source the decals for it and figure out what colour scheme it was wearing.
Well, that’s a win! Managed to source some 1/72 scale decals from DK Decals for RNZAF Hudsons! For a total of, get this, 17 RNZAF aircraft! Coming from Modelimex in the Chezc Republic. Can’t wait for the decals to get here!!
Hello all…I’ve never been part of a group build or campaign but decided that I couldn’t pass this one up. I’ll be doing Rfm’s kv-1 with some additional goodies. I may also do a T-34/76 TBD at a later date.
Soo from the Year 1042 you say… Well I have done some figures from the 10th century in the past… All jokes aside Im in, not sure what to pick thou, there are some armour options, but Im also tempted to do the HMS Cornwall - sank in April during the infamous Battle of the Java Sea.
Well, the postman has been kind and delivered my DK decals for the RNZAF Hudson, they look awesome and there are decals for 17 complete schemes! The decals are in perfect register and are quite thin with little excess film surrounding them.
Still havent decided what to built. The HMS Cornwall is too complex to attempt to do in one year (my “fastest” cruiser was Agano and that took more time). I was thinking about the “light” USS Atlanta (sank 42), but might do a plane.
