Small Scale Military Headquarters

Thanks, Digger. The released Spitfire is the Mk IIa from the 71th RAF Squadron (August/September 1941) http://www.btinternet.com/~lee_mail/71.html . The Spitfire on the box picture (with "NK" code) is the 118 Sq Mk IIa (1941, too). So, both of them are not the Battle of Britain planes. This is proba...

This is interesting. 20 votes and so far nobody has voted for the French plane, which isn't surprising. What is surprising is we have not one vote for the Hellcat, or the Hurricane. And no one has voted for the Mosquito!?! What's up with that? I thought the Mosquito was a popular plane. Wow! :o :o ...

Spitfire

Yes, a new Sherman. Maybe one of these three: M4A1, M4A2 or M4A4? Or all of them...

Thanks for the photos! Well, I have to buy this Sherman. The turret looks very nice. I want to replace it by the regular earlier mold and put the new one on the chassis of my one-part-nosed 21CT Sherman. I will be going to made a real M4 Firefly (Mk. Ic). Could you tell me if the rear part of the ra...

Welcome, Mike!

Greetings from Poland!

A bear called Wojtek who served in the Polish 2nd Corps during the WW II will be commemorated with the monument in Edinburgh (maybe).

So now that you've voted care to take a guess at the bird? I am going out on a limb and say it will be a British Spitfire. I know both FOV and Corgi make one but I think 21C knows these will sell, and can make them in plenty of different models and schemes. The only thing with British birds is they...

Modified questions: How many blades - two or three? Open or closed cockpit? High-wing or low-wing? Retractable main gear or not? Polish? If: two-blade prop, open cockpit, high-wing, not retractable gear and Polish, it will be a PZL P.11c! If low-wing and closed cockpit - a PZL-23 Karas. Well, I know...

One Spitfire - one engine, two Spitfires - two engines...

Now I'm not sure it will be a Spitfire... It can be a Hurricane Mk Ia. If yes, I suggest to make the entire 303 Squadron from the time of the Battle of Britain. It would be great!

A Spitfire. If Mk. VB, the S1 will be probably a Jan Zumbach's RF-D "Donald Duck" from Polish 303. Squadron.

Hello, Mr Blitz. I am Polish (not in Ireland but in Poland ).

Mrs. Rita, happy New Year to you, too!

On the other hand I was also a kid and I was also a plane model maniac, so...

Dragon, maybe... you are Mr. Hanks, aren't you?

It is one of my favorite war movies. The tank scenes are really both realistic and funny! Remember it was 1970; I wonder you could show another movie from that time with real Shermans and quasi-real Tigers.

Tko, I wonder it would be a Polish Spitfire

I think the Stuka's gear is very realistic, too

GooglyDoogly,

it's not any cheating! I don't believe you knew nothing of Polish military history. But if there is somebody who really don't know anything, my intention was to make him a little familiar with it

Ostketten,

you are absolutely correct! Congratulations!

All right, if you want something really :wink: difficult - here you are... 1. The Marshal of Poland, the Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Army during the Nazi and Soviet invasion and the lost September Campaign 1939 (he studied at the same Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow as Wieslaw but earlier).

Well, you start to buy the 1/18 scale models and when you realize there is no more place in your house, you have to change the scale first to 1/32, then to 1/48, 1/72, 1/144, 1/350, 1/700 etc.

Of course, you can start from 1/6.

1) Howitzer Shermans - They were ALL on the newer 47 degree hull front - except for one prototype vehicle. No matter who used them or where, they all left the factory with late production features. I have several thousand Sherman photos and haven't ever seen any structural variation in the assault ...
